Azimuth Meridian
Long-horizon architecture with versioned interfaces, reversible migrations, and observable evolution for AI and data platforms.
Reversible Migrations
Observability
Governance Ready
Zero-Downtime Paths
Overview
Azimuth Meridian provides a durable backbone for systems that must evolve without breaking integrations. It formalizes stability levels, publishes deprecation windows, and ships migration playbooks so teams can modernize with confidence and evidence.
Purpose
Enable predictable change across services, models, and data contracts.
Primary Users
Platform leads, architects, SREs, and product teams.
Key Outcomes
Zero-downtime upgrades, auditability, and reduced rework.
Core Capabilities
Interface Stability Tiers. Experimental → Beta → Stable with required docs and guardrails at each level.
Contract Registry. Versioned schemas, diffs, lineage, and compatibility checks.
Migration Orchestrator. Reversible steps with canary, shadow, and fallback tracks.
Policy Hooks. Approval gates, change windows, and evidence capture.
Compatibility Kits. Golden scenarios and regression suites per interface.
Deprecation Service. Timelines, notifications, and automated enforcement.
Runtime Bridges. Dual-write, dual-read, and adapter patterns by template.
Observability. SLIs for upgrade safety: error rate, latency, data parity, drift.
Architecture
Contract Plane
Registry, diffing, provenance, and compliance views.
Control Plane
Orchestrates migrations, approvals, and rollout tracks.
Data & Model Plane
Bridges, adapters, and validation pipelines.
Documentation & Access
Controlled Release. Partners and internal teams receive CLI, SDKs, and migration playbooks.
Engagement. We co-design stability targets, SLOs, and reversible plans for each upgrade.
Evolve Without Breaking What Works
Azimuth Meridian turns upgrades into measurable, reversible steps.
