# Architecture overview

The solution was designed to scale with growing requirements. Therefore, each component (Logstash, API-Builder4Elastic, etc.) can be scaled in isolation. For example, if more Logstash capacity is needed, but no additional API-Builder4Elastic, Logstash can be scaled individually. This is the main reason why the solution is deployed based on Docker containers.

Another reason is to make setup and update as easy as possible. In the medium term, this should also be possible based on HELM charts for Kubernetes & OpenShift.

No, a large part of the logic of the solution is in the API Builder application. Implementing this in policies might be possible, but managing & updating the individual customer installations would be very time-consuming and error-prone. So the customer has to reference the appropriate API-Builder image and you know by version exactly what code base the customer is running.

## Can we minimize the number of dependencies? Elastic Search, Logstash, Kibana and FileBeat agents are mandatory. Can API Builder and MemCache be made optional?

No, API-Builder is a substantial part of the solution. It’s exposing the fully tested Traffic-Monitor API, manages Elasticsearch, provides Lookup-APIs. Everything fully automated tested.

## Is it possible to use another caching solution than Memcached?

No, that is not possible. Logstash uses a filter to communicate with Memcached and is integrated into the Logstash pipelines. Only the interaction of the pipelines & Memcached has been tested and is thus supported.
