This diagram highlights a clear separation of concerns.

Some things to note are:

  • The API and SpaceTrack Applications are the only ones that write to the persistence tier (database and filesystem).

  • The Web Application is an API client written for Monitor Space Hazards users to browse, but they can directly integrate with the API with their own client if preferred.

  • The SpaceTrack Application’s sole concern is to synchronize data in Monitor Space Hazards with SpaceTrack.

  • Only the Web and API applications are routed and available over the Internet.
