A cloud‑native platform built on common infrastructure, using modern open‑source technologies to deliver secure, scalable, and reusable government services.

Platform & Hosting (BC Gov Standard)

• Deployed on BC Gov OpenShift (Kubernetes) with high availability, self‑healing, and auto‑scaling
• Managed GitOps via ArgoCD, with environment promotion dev → test → main/uat → prod
• Access controlled via IDIR on OpenShift (gov‑standard internal access model)
• Zero‑downtime releases using rolling updates to maintain capacity and availability

Application Stack (Core Components)

• Core application: .NET + ABP Framework (MIT‑licensed, open source)
• Applicant portal: Angular front‑end with a .NET API backend
• Reporting / AI module: Angular front‑end with a Python Flask API backend

Data Layer & Resilience (Enterprise Operations)

• PostgreSQL High Availability (CrunchyDB operator) with automated failover
• Point‑in‑time recovery using Write‑Ahead Logging (WAL) and streaming replication (pgBackRest)
• Resilient backups retained to persistent storage and S3 object storage
• Redis Sentinel for caching high availability
• RabbitMQ for asynchronous messaging
