AlkaShift Platform

System Architecture

Built for mathematical determinism, offline PWA resilience, and high-availability enterprise scale across distributed retail and hospitality locations.

PWA Offline Mutation Queue & Background Sync

Client-side IndexedDB persistence preserves exact offline punch timestamps across walk-in freezers and network outages.

Progressive Web App (PWA) Offline Engine

Service Worker offline caching (Cache API) combined with client-side IndexedDB mutation queue (alkashift_offline_mutations) preserves historical punch timestamps and replays punches upon reconnection.

FastAPI & Python 3.11 Microservices

Asynchronous ASGI event loop delivering sub-50ms query response times, JWT session rotation, and Redis/ARQ task queues for heavy schedule generation jobs.

Google OR-Tools CP-SAT & Python CSP Engine

Multi-constraint optimization engine compiling complex labor regulations, overtime limits, and skill requirements into integer programming matrices.

PostgreSQL 15 & PostGIS Spatial Extensions

Native geographic geometry engine executing spatial polygon containment (ST_Contains) for tamper-proof mobile geofence boundary checks.

Bi-Directional WebSocket Real-Time Pipeline

Sub-second pub/sub WebSocket channels dispatching floor attendance telemetry, roster publications, and team chat messages across all devices.

Strict Multi-Tenant Database Isolation

100% of mutating and data-returning queries enforce org_id boundaries, verified against IDOR, privilege escalation, and cross-tenant leakage.
