Components

In order to build and run NPL services, it is good to be familiar with a number of components.

The core of the Noumena Platform is the Operating Engine.

The following components are required to run it:

• Identity & Access Management (IAM) system, e.g. Keycloak
• an NPL engine database service, i.e. PostgreSQL

Optionally, you can then also deploy the following Noumena-provided services

• History Service which archives data and keeps the central repository lean
• Read Model to provide a GraphQL API to your data

Refer to System topology for further details.
