CircleCore. The Engine Room.
FocusDB, TestDB, and WorkforceDB don't just share a brand — they share a purpose-built cloud infrastructure designed from day one for AI-native workloads, post-quantum security, TS3 metering, and seamless cross-platform integration. CircleCore is the foundation that makes it all possible.
How It All Connects
Six infrastructure services form the bedrock of the Circle platform — each independently scalable, collectively unbreakable.
Built Different at Every Layer
GPU-accelerated container orchestration purpose-built for AI inference and agentic workloads. Auto-scales from zero to thousands of concurrent agents in milliseconds — with deterministic latency guarantees.
A unified, PQC-encrypted storage layer spanning relational, document, vector, and time-series data. Every read and write is encrypted with CRYSTALS-Kyber — at rest, in transit, and during computation.
A software-defined network layer implementing zero-trust microsegmentation across all three platforms. mTLS everywhere, PQC key exchange at every hop, and AI-driven anomaly detection on every packet.
A single, intelligent API gateway that connects all three Circle platforms to each other and to the outside world. Rate limiting, schema validation, and PQC-signed request authentication — with a self-service developer portal.
TS3 is Circle's metering and monetization engine — tracking time, storage, speed, and support consumption across all three platforms in real time. Built for the solutions of today and tomorrow — deploy a new product line and TS3 meters it on day one with zero configuration.
Self-healing infrastructure that monitors, diagnoses, and remediates issues before they impact users. AI-driven capacity planning, automated compliance auditing, and unified observability across all platforms.
One Infrastructure, Three Missions
Each Circle product leverages the shared infrastructure differently — optimized for the unique demands of its operational domain.
Time · Storage · Speed & Support
Think of TS3 like AWS EC2 — but instead of compute instances, it meters the four dimensions that matter most to enterprise platforms: time consumed, data stored, processing speed, and support utilization. Every event, across every product, in real time.
One Gateway. Every Integration.
CircleGate is the single entry point for all data flowing into and out of Circle's platform — securing, routing, and transforming requests across all three products.
Unified API Surface
A single GraphQL + REST gateway exposes all three Circle products through a consistent, versioned API. Third-party developers build once and access FocusDB, TestDB, and WorkforceDB through the same authentication and schema patterns.
Webhook Orchestration
Event-driven webhook delivery with guaranteed at-least-once semantics. Configurable filters, retry policies, and dead-letter queues. Fan-out a single event to dozens of downstream consumers with sub-second latency.
Schema Registry
Centralized schema governance across all APIs. Breaking change detection, backward compatibility enforcement, and automated client SDK generation. Every schema change is PQC-signed and versioned.
Developer Portal
Self-service portal with interactive API explorer, sandbox environments, usage analytics, and rate limit dashboards. Developers go from API key to first successful call in under 3 minutes.
Rate Limiting & Throttling
Intelligent rate limiting with per-tenant, per-endpoint, and per-IP granularity. AI-driven anomaly detection automatically escalates suspicious patterns to CircleMesh for network-level response.
Transform Pipeline
Request and response transformation middleware for legacy system compatibility. HL7-to-FHIR, SOAP-to-REST, and custom mapping functions — all executed at the gateway with zero application changes.
