+title: The Architecture so Far!
+description: This is the architecture of our app so far.
+slug: 2023-02-11-architecture
+authors: AbdBarho
+tags: [open-assistant]
+---
+
+I thought it would make sense to document our architecture this as a blog post,
+since it would be easily visible for everyone, and it would also be nice to look
+back a couple months from now and see how stuff has changed :)
+
+A lot of work was done in the past couple of week to establish the needed
+infrastructure both for data collection and inference purposes. Thanks to
+everyone, and especially community members who supported us so far!
+
+Our current plan for the architecture of the Open Assistant is as follows:
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+  subgraph next[Web Frontend]
+    direction TB
+    website([Browser]) & nextbackend[Backend] & webpostgres[(PostgreSQL)]
+  end
+
+  subgraph data[Python backend]
+    direction TB
+    backend[Backend] & postgres[(PostgreSQL)] & redis[(Redis)]
+  end
+
+  subgraph inference[Inference Service]
+    direction TB
+    inferenceServer[Server] -.- infpostgres[(PostgreSQL)]
+  end
+
+  subgraph workers[Inference Workers]
+    direction TB
+    worker1[Worker] --- textgen1[Text\ngenerator]
+    worker2[Worker] --- textgen2[Text\ngenerator]
+    worker3[Worker] --- textgen3[Text\ngenerator]
+  end
+
+  website --> nextbackend
+  nextbackend -.- webpostgres
+
+  next --- data
+
+  backend -.- postgres & redis
+
+  next --- inference
+
+  inference --- workers
+```
+
+We are working on setting up the inference as shown above, and considering our
+options for hosting, also, we want to move our authentication from the website
+to the python backend.
+
+Of course, this is by no means final, and lot of questions are still open, and
+that is the fun of it! If you want to join us on our journey, just give our
+[github](https://github.com/LAION-AI/Open-Assistant) a look!
