This the home page for a draft of the ToIP Technology Architecture Specification, a proposed Draft Deliverable of the TSWG developed by the Technology Architecture Task Force.

Links

The Working Draft of this specification is proceeding through two stages:

  1. Google doc: For ease of drafting and commenting during the early Draft Deliverable stage, the spec is starting as this Google doc.
  2. GitHub Markdown file: Here is the GitHub Markdown version of the spec. The full content should be moved here by 11 August 2022.
  3. GitHub issues list: Here is where you can view current issues and raise new ones. Any ToIP member is welcome.

Contributors

To comply with the intellectual property rights protections in the charter of the ToIP Foundation (as required by all Joint Development Foundation projects hosted the Linux Foundation), all contributors to this Pre-Draft Deliverable MUST be current members of the ToIP Foundation. The following contributors each certify that they meet this requirement:

Other contributors MUST also add their name and membership affiliation to the Google doc or wiki page version of the spec as it proceeds through development.

Terminology

In this document, the key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED",  "MAY", and "OPTIONAL", when appearing in ALL CAPITALS, are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119.

All other terms in bold will be defined in one or more of the ToIP glossaries in a process being defined by the ToIP Concepts and Terminology Working Group.

Purpose

The purpose of this specification is to define the overall architectural requirements for each of the four layers of the ToIP stack and how they are abstracted from the layer below. This specification will lay the overarching foundation for future ToIP specifications that will specify more detailed interoperability requirements such as specific protocols, interfaces, and test cases. This TF will be adapting the original Hyperledger RFC defining the ToIP stack and following the Design Principles for the ToIP Stack. Note: this specification is intended to serve as a direct a counterpart to the ToIP Governance Architecture Specification deliverable from the GSWG Governance Architecture TF.
