Knovvu products run on a cloud-native architecture built on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Components are architected from the ground up to take advantage of cloud capabilities, enabling enhanced scalability, resilience, security, and innovation velocity.
Modular Microservices Architecture
Knovvu applications follow a microservices architecture, where each microservice is responsible for a specific business capability. These microservices communicate through loosely coupled interfaces, allowing them to be developed, deployed, scaled, and updated independently.
Benefits of this architecture include:
- High modularity – Each service focuses on a single function
- Scalability – Individual services can scale independently based on demand
- Fault isolation – Issues in one service do not impact others
Each microservice is packaged as a container, bundling application code, runtime, system tools, and dependencies. This ensures consistent behavior and full portability across development, testing, and production environments.
Containerization and Kubernetes Orchestration
All microservices within the Knovvu platform run inside containers and are orchestrated by Kubernetes.
Kubernetes provides:
- Automated deployments
- Horizontal scaling based on demand
- Self-healing capabilities, such as restarting failed containers
- Efficient resource utilization
- Declarative configuration and state management
This orchestration layer ensures reliable, predictable, and highly available operation of containerized workloads. Container images for each microservice are created during build time and remain immutable throughout their lifecycle. This guarantees consistency, simplifies debugging, and supports predictable and reproducible deployments.
Integrated DevSecOps and Automation
Knovvu applications are delivered using a unified DevSecOps approach. Infrastructure, configurations, and deployments are all defined and maintained as code.
This methodology provides:
- Reduced risk of human error by minimizing manual interventions
- Consistent and repeatable deployments across all environments
- Full auditability, enabling traceability, review, and rollback of any change
- Built-in security, with automated vulnerability scanning, patching, and validation integrated into the delivery pipeline
By incorporating security early in the development lifecycle, the Knovvu platform maintains a strong security posture while preserving development speed and operational agility.
