# AI Middleware System - Architectural Documentation

## Executive Summary

The AI Middleware System is a comprehensive FastAPI-based service that provides a unified interface for multiple AI service providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Groq, Mistral, and OpenRouter. The system acts as an intelligent proxy layer, offering features such as request routing, authentication, rate limiting, caching, queue management, and comprehensive monitoring.

## 🎯 Key Features

- **Multi-Provider AI Integration**: Unified API for 6+ AI service providers
- **Intelligent Request Routing**: Automatic failover and load balancing
- **Advanced Authentication**: JWT-based auth with multi-tier access control
- **Rate Limiting**: Granular rate limiting per user, thread, and organization
- **Caching Layer**: Redis-based response caching for improved performance
- **Queue Management**: RabbitMQ-based asynchronous processing
- **Real-time Monitoring**: Comprehensive metrics and alerting via Atatus
- **Function Call Support**: Advanced tool calling and function execution
- **RAG Capabilities**: Retrieval-Augmented Generation for document processing
- **Multi-Database Architecture**: MongoDB, PostgreSQL/TimescaleDB, and Redis

## 🚀 Quick Start Guide

### Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+
- Docker and Docker Compose
- MongoDB 7.0+
- PostgreSQL with TimescaleDB extension
- Redis 7+
- RabbitMQ

### Development Setup
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone <repository-url>
cd AI-middleware-python

# Install dependencies
pip install -r req.txt

# Set up environment variables
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your configuration

# Start dependencies with Docker Compose
docker-compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d

# Run the application
uvicorn index:app --reload --port 8080
```

### Production Deployment
```bash
# Build Docker image
docker build -t ai-middleware:latest .

# Deploy to Kubernetes
kubectl apply -f k8s/
```

## 🔧 Configuration Management

### Environment Variables
The system uses environment-based configuration with the following key categories:

- **Database Connections**: MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis URIs
- **AI Provider Keys**: API keys for all supported providers
- **Queue Configuration**: RabbitMQ connection and queue settings
- **Security Settings**: JWT secrets, encryption keys
- **Performance Tuning**: Worker counts, timeout settings
- **Monitoring**: Atatus configuration

### Dynamic Configuration
The system supports dynamic configuration updates through MongoDB change streams, allowing real-time configuration changes without service restart.

## 📊 Performance Characteristics

### Throughput
- **Peak Requests**: 10,000+ requests/minute
- **Concurrent Connections**: 1,000+ simultaneous connections
- **Average Response Time**: <500ms (cached), <2s (uncached)

### Scalability
- **Horizontal Scaling**: Kubernetes-based auto-scaling
- **Database Scaling**: Read replicas and connection pooling
- **Cache Scaling**: Redis cluster with automatic sharding

### Reliability
- **Uptime Target**: 99.9%
- **Failover Time**: <30 seconds
- **Data Durability**: Multi-zone replication

## 🔒 Security Framework

### Authentication & Authorization
- **JWT Tokens**: Stateless authentication with configurable expiration
- **API Keys**: Service-to-service authentication
- **Multi-Tier Access**: User, organization, and bridge-level permissions

### Data Protection
- **Encryption at Rest**: Database-level encryption
- **Encryption in Transit**: TLS 1.3 for all connections
- **Key Management**: Kubernetes secrets with rotation
- **PII Handling**: Data anonymization and retention policies

### Network Security
- **VPC Isolation**: Private network segments
- **Network Policies**: Kubernetes-based micro-segmentation
- **DDoS Protection**: Rate limiting and traffic analysis
- **Intrusion Detection**: Automated threat detection

## 📈 Monitoring & Observability

### Metrics Collection
- **Application Metrics**: Request rates, response times, error rates
