Kuben v1.0.0-alpha.1 — Master Engineering Blueprint & Architecture Specification
Kuben officially initiates its v1.0.0 stabilization cycle with the release of the Master Engineering Blueprint, establishing the rigorous architecture principles, invariants, and operational boundaries of the platform.
Key Highlights
- Master Engineering Blueprint (
docs/KUBEN-MASTER-BLUEPRINT.md):- Comprehensive architectural reference mapping all subsystem interactions, data flows, and concurrency models.
- Formal specification of the 16 Core System Invariants (I-1 through I-16) governing authorization, state mutability, informers, and database locks.
- Architectural Critique & Trade-off Analysis:
- Detailed evaluation of design decisions including SQLite vs PostgreSQL, Gateway API vs Ingress, and embedded UI vs micro-frontends.
- Strict boundary definitions preventing architectural drift as Kuben scales toward v1.0.0 GA.
- Production Day-2 Scenarios:
- Standardized operator runbooks covering disaster recovery, atomic backup restoration, token rotation, and zero-downtime database migrations.
