Reference Architecture

This diagram shows StrategyCore’s current technology stack across AI and machine learning, data engineering and cybersecurity. It illustrates possible combinations of data platforms, AI applications and security services for enterprises and government organisations in Japan. StrategyCore works with vendor engineers and each organisation’s IT team to adapt the stack to its applications, existing systems and security requirements. We can add open-source software or other vendors’ products to address gaps in the proposed deployment and extend the stack as new requirements arise.

Applications of the architecture

The data platform can support operational reporting, AI retrieval and analysis of security events. Each application needs its own data connections, permissions and performance tests.

Real-Time Analytics

Dashboards and operational reports over data updated from source systems.

AI & RAG Applications

Retrieval, model serving, and agents built on vectors held next to the source data.

Security Analytics / SIEM

Collect security logs, query events and present findings in dashboards for the security operations team.

Powered byStriimSingleStoreLogi

Customer 360 & Data Hub

Combine customer or product records from connected systems, with matching rules and update intervals defined for each source.

Predictive Operations

Forecast resource demand and adjust cluster capacity against measured workload requirements.

Device & Email Trust

Assess device and firmware risks with DeviceTotal, and manage sending-domain authentication with Valimail. Each service can be evaluated separately from the data platform.

Email and device-security services

Cybersecurity

Valimail manages domain authentication; DeviceTotal assesses device risk. The two services can be evaluated separately from the data platform.

SEC-1

Email Authentication Pipeline

Valimail

Check domain authentication with SPF, DKIM and DMARC. Quarantine or rejection is requested through policy; receivers decide final handling. BIMI logo display depends on the receiving service’s conditions.
