Layered architecture: the onion approach

We adopted a layered, microservice-based product architecture. At its heart lies the yuuvis® core, a minimal set of microservices required for proper operation.

If you want to add more features and components, you can integrate them as peripheral services. This architectural feature enables you to tailor the system according to your needs.

For example, you can use the client API and frontend we provide as a peripheral service to make it easier for end users to interact with the system; you can use it to integrate a third-party workflow engine, implement a document lifecycle process, or integrate a service for digital signatures or interfaces to further third-party systems.

Other core services

  • Audit service (object history)
  • Contentanalyzer service
  • Rendition service

Advantages of a microservice architecture

  • Flexible
    The system is adaptable and can be extended with your own business logic.

  • Scalable
    Individual services are scaled up or down depending on the workload of the system.

  • Reliable
    If a microservice fails, a replacement service is started automatically.
