Architecture

Technical architecture for operational control, not software theater.

Elfenware is presented as a browser-based, cloud-hosted, database-rich operating platform with business rules, reporting, permissions, audit logging, integration planning, and admin controls.

Users Executives, operators, admins, partners
Workflows Quote, order, purchase, fulfill, report
Security Roles, permissions, admin controls
Business Rules Pricing, status, approvals, exceptions
Integrations Import, export, API-ready boundaries
Connected Operational Records Customers · Items · Orders · Inventory · Suppliers · Reports
Reporting Operational visibility and accountability
Automation Structured actions based on workflow state
Browser Access Usable across distributed teams
Database-Rich Core Records designed around operational relationships
Auditability Traceable activity where control matters

Technical note

Azure App & SQL-as-a-Service foundation.

The technical deck describes browser-based access on Azure App and SQL-as-a-Service, dedicated encrypted-at-rest databases, Azure monitoring, native T-SQL business logic, and a configuration-heavy operating model. Final deployment details should still be confirmed during technical review.

Core schema

The platform is intentionally database-rich.

These figures come from the technical materials and should be kept current as the platform evolves.

1,000+ database tables

Database-rich schema for operational depth.

22,000 variables

Configuration surface for structured business logic.

30 schemas

Separation of operating domains and data responsibilities.

0 application-tier servers

Business logic concentrated in the SQL layer.

Architecture topics

The technical evaluation should be concrete.

These are the areas buyers, implementation partners, and technical stakeholders should expect to review.

Azure App & SQL-as-a-Service

Browser-based application posture using Azure app and SQL service patterns for always-on access and lower recurring infrastructure overhead.

Dedicated encrypted database

Deployment discussions reference dedicated, encrypted-at-rest client databases with Azure monitoring and auditable operating controls.

Native T-SQL core

Core business logic is described as modular T-SQL stored procedures, reducing middleware and ORM dependency in the transaction path.

Metadata whitelist security

A Webpage Control Table validates routing parameters at the database tier to reduce unauthorized traversal and injection exposure.

Controlled query guardrails

Reporting and data-mining patterns are constrained to predictable join limits, with heavier analytics offloaded through external BI tools.

Blue / green deployment

Production planning includes paired environments where verified releases can switch traffic with reduced downtime risk.
