Available infrastructure

Internally, TOPIC has developed an infrastructure to provide our own products and customer projects with a solid foundation, incorporating as standard:

• Containerization for deployment, on almost all hosting providers. A specific deployment option is also possible, for on-premise deployments (e.g. in your own data center or on your own hardware).

• Auth2 authentication and authorization, which can be linked to the built-in user management system or looped through to your own identity system (e.g. LDAP). Support for various healthcare information exchange protocols, such as HL7 and FHIR

• Very robust audit tracing, which ensures that mutations are recorded precisely and forgery-proof. There is a strict separation between technical logging (for DevOps engineers) and audit tracing (for authorized persons). However, there is a clear link, so that if necessary and authorized, the relevant audit tracing can be set next to the logging.

• Push messaging to clients (e.g. a web client or mobile application) so that clients are informed directly of data mutations

• Comprehensive and advanced access control on resources, making it easy to indicate which users have which rights (e.g. read and write rights) on which resources (e.g. patient or device).

• Built-in resource versioning to simplify conflict resolution on updates

• Comprehensive internal domain-specific language to accelerate the implementation of custom functionalities

Cross-platform UI

As a partner for the cloud infrastructure, we have also developed our own cross-platform end-user application stack. This makes it possible to implement a user interface once, which can then be used on iOS, Android, Windows, MacOS and Linux without modification. This is done using standard libraries and platforms, thereby providing a low threshold for further development by your own developers.
