Architecture
Decisions you make once per project, and the reasoning behind them: which approach fits, versions and upgrades, Core Nano versus a cluster, and scaling.
Choosing Your Approach Blueprint, custom component or external service: which fits which problem, plus RUAL storage versus an external database and real-time versus polling. Version Management Release channels, a safe upgrade routine, where breaking changes and deprecations are documented, and which core version you should run. RUAL Core Nano The whole platform on one machine: SQLite instead of Elasticsearch, one box instead of a stack, and when to choose it over a cluster. Scaling and Automatic Sizing How storage capacity is sized from what it holds, how many copies data keeps, what the nightly pass changes, and what stays a human decision.
