§02Make AI Work Inside Your Enterprise

Integration Architecture & Reference Patterns

Tooling rail: microservices • event-driven • BPM hooks Edge: Opinionated blueprints reduce latency, coupling, and blast radius.

API Gateways & Service Mesh

Tooling rail: Apigee/Kong • Istio • rate limits • mTLS Edge: Zero-trust routing with per-service policies and quotas.

RAG & Data Path Integration

Tooling rail: LangChain/LlamaIndex • Pinecone/Weaviate • hybrid search Edge: Σ-Graphion™ improves retrieval fidelity via knowledge graphs.

Security, IAM & Secrets

Tooling rail: Vault • OIDC/SAML • ABAC/RBAC • token scopes Edge: Policy-as-code enforced by EthicΞense™ for model/tool access.

CI/CD, Testing & Release Management

Tooling rail: GitHub Actions • Argo CD • contract tests • canary Edge: Promotion gates with rollback and auditable approvals.

Observability, SRE & Cost Control

Tooling rail: OpenTelemetry • tracing • SLOs • autoscaling Edge: ReinΩlytix™ tracks adoption and value; Neuro-Quantis™ caps inference cost.
