Integration process

Our delivery rail keeps distributed systems integration work visible to your product and platform leads.

1. Signal intake

You share architecture sketches, sample payloads, and incident timelines. We identify which edges lose ordering guarantees or duplicate facts.

2. Boundary contract pack

OpenAPI or AsyncAPI documents, sequence diagrams, and explicit consistency goals (per-entity linearizability, read-your-writes, etc.) are drafted for sign-off before coding begins.

3. Instrumented build

We implement adapters and synchronization workers with structured logs and trace identifiers propagated across services. Feature flags gate new paths beside legacy cron importers.

4. Shadow compare

Traffic is mirrored or replayed from captured fixtures. Hash totals and row counts must match within agreed tolerances for three consecutive business days.

5. Handover orbit

Runbooks, on-call playbooks, and a recorded walkthrough go to your team. Optional follow-up office hours can be scheduled as a separate micro-project.

Physical connectivity often mirrors logical coupling—both belong in the integration map.
