title: Technical stack
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
This page lists the main technologies used in the project, with links to their documentation. Specific version
|
||
information can be found in the project’s dependency files (`composer.lock`, `package.json`, etc.). The architecture
|
||
diagram below summarizes how these services interact.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Backend
|
||
|
||
### Framework
|
||
|
||
The programming language is **PHP**.
|
||
|
||
The backend is developed using the **Symfony** framework ([documentation](https://symfony.com/doc)).
|
||
|
||
The API is made possible by the **API Platform**
|
||
project ([documentation](https://api-platform.com/docs/symfony/)).
|
||
|
||
### SQL database
|
||
|
||
This project requires a **PostgreSQL** database ([documentation](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/)).
|
||
|
||
Other database types cannot be used because some migrations were specifically written to leverage the performance of
|
||
this database management system.
|
||
|
||
### Key-value database
|
||
|
||
A **Redis-compatible** key-value database is required to:
|
||
|
||
- Cache certain values
|
||
- Implement locks to limit the possibility of conditional raises
|
||
- Store messages to be distributed to workers to process asynchronous actions. For example: updating domain names in a
|
||
Watchlist on a high-priority RDAP client queue.
|
||
|
||
## Time Series database
|
||
|
||
The **InfluxDB** database is optional.
|
||
A data point is added for the following events:
|
||
|
||
- RDAP requests from your instance: response time, requested domain name, HTTP status code, IP address of the RDAP
|
||
server, etc.
|
||
- User notifications: adding events to a domain name, changing EPP statuses, etc.
|
||
|
||
### SSO authentication
|
||
|
||
An **OAuth 2.0** server is not required to authenticate users.
|
||
|
||
Using Single Sign-On (SSO) allows you to delegate user authentication to a third party. This can be useful if you only
|
||
want people within your organization to be able to use this project instance. Furthermore, you can then configure
|
||
advanced security policies such as passwordless login, passkeys, multifactor authentication, and more.

|
||
## Frontend
|
||
|
||
### Framework
|
||
|
||
The language for frontend development is **TypeScript**.
|
||
|
||
The framework used for the frontend is **React** ([documentation](https://react.dev/reference/react)).
|
||
|
||
### Component Library
|
||
|
||
The component library used is **Ant Design** ([documentation](https://ant.design/components/overview/)).
