### 1.2 Architectural Principles

#### **1.2.1 Multi-Layer Architecture**
- **Separation of Concerns**: Clear layer boundaries with defined responsibilities
- **Dependency Inversion**: Higher-level modules don't depend on lower-level modules
- **Interface Segregation**: Clients only depend on interfaces they use
- **Single Responsibility**: Each component has one reason to change

#### **1.2.2 Dual Access Pattern**
- **ILogic Interface Abstraction**: Single interface supporting multiple backends
- **BL Implementation**: Direct database access for performance-critical scenarios
- **WS Implementation**: Web service access for distributed deployments
- **Runtime Selection**: Dynamic backend selection based on connection type

#### **1.2.3 Plugin Architecture**
- **Modular Design**: Core system with pluggable modules
- **Dynamic Loading**: Runtime module discovery and initialization
- **Extensibility**: New functionality added without core system changes
- **Isolation**: Module failures don't affect core system stability

```

#### **2.1.2 Key Architectural Patterns**

**MVVM Pattern Implementation**
- **Views**: XAML-based user interfaces with minimal code-behind
- **ViewModels**: Business logic presentation layer with data binding
- **Models**: Domain entities and data transfer objects
- **Commands**: ICommand implementations for user actions
- **Messaging**: Loose coupling through message passing

**Dependency Injection with Castle Windsor**
```csharp
public class ClassContainer
{
    private WindsorContainer _rootContainer;
    private WindsorContainer _databaseContainer;    // BL implementations
    private WindsorContainer _webServiceContainer;  // WS implementations

    public void SetContext(CentronConnectionType connectionType)
    {
        // Dynamic container selection based on connection type
        _currentContainer = connectionType switch
        {
            CentronConnectionType.SqlServer => _databaseContainer,
            CentronConnectionType.CentronWebServices => _webServiceContainer,
            _ => throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException()
        };
    }
}
```

**Module System Architecture**
```csharp
public interface ICentronAppModuleController
{
    string ModuleName { get; }
    UserRight[] RequiredRights { get; }
    bool CanLoad(IServiceProvider services);
    Task<bool> LoadAsync();
    Task<bool> UnloadAsync();
}
```

### 2.2 Backend Architecture (src/backend/)

└── WebServices/                # DTO entities for web services
```

#### **2.2.2 Data Access Patterns**

**Dual Implementation Pattern**
```csharp
// Interface definition
public interface ICustomerLogic
{
    Task<Result<Customer[]>> GetCustomersAsync(CustomerFilter filter);
    Task<Result<Customer>> SaveCustomerAsync(Customer customer);
}

// BL Implementation (Direct database access)
public class BLCustomerLogic : BaseBL, ICustomerLogic
{
    public async Task<Result<Customer[]>> GetCustomersAsync(CustomerFilter filter)
    {
        using var session = NHibernateHelper.GetSession();
        // Direct NHibernate query execution
        return await ExecuteAsync(() =>
            session.QueryOver<Customer>().List().ToArray());
    }
}

// WS Implementation (Web service access)
public class WSCustomerLogic : ICustomerLogic
{
    private readonly IRestClient _restClient;

    public async Task<Result<Customer[]>> GetCustomersAsync(CustomerFilter filter)
    {
        var request = new Request<CustomerFilter> { Data = filter };
        var response = await _restClient.PostAsync<Response<CustomerDTO[]>>(
            "GetCustomers", request);
        // Convert DTOs to entities
        return ConvertCustomerDTOsToCustomers(response.Data);
    }
}
```

**Repository Pattern with NHibernate**
```csharp
public class CustomerRepository : BaseRepository<Customer>
{
    public async Task<Customer[]> FindByCompanyNameAsync(string companyName)
    {
        using var session = GetSession();
        return await session.QueryOver<Customer>()
            .WhereRestrictionOn(c => c.CompanyName)
            .IsLike($"%{companyName}%")
            .ListAsync();
    }
}
```

**Service Configuration**
```csharp
public class Startup
{
    public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
    {
        services.AddSingleton<ICentronRestService, CentronRestService>();
        services.AddScoped<ICustomerWebServiceLogic, CustomerWebServiceLogic>();
        services.AddDbContext<CentronDbContext>(options =>
            options.UseSqlServer(connectionString));
    }
}
```

#### **2.3.2 REST Service Implementation**

**Interface Partitioning**
```
ICentronRestService (Partial Interfaces):
├── ICentronRestService.Administration.cs    # User and system administration
├── ICentronRestService.Finances.cs          # Financial operations
├── ICentronRestService.Helpdesk.cs          # Support and ticketing
├── ICentronRestService.ArticleManagement.cs # Product management
├── ICentronRestService.CrmProjects.cs       # CRM and project management
└── ICentronRestService.Notifications.cs    # Notification services
```

**WebService BL Pattern**
```csharp
public class CustomerWebServiceBL : BaseBL
{
    private readonly CustomerBL _customerBL;

    public CustomerWebServiceBL()
    {
        _customerBL = new CustomerBL();
    }

    public async Task<Result<CustomerDTO[]>> GetCustomersAsync(CustomerFilter filter)
    {
        // Call base BL for business logic
        var result = await _customerBL.GetCustomersAsync(filter);
        if (result.HasError) return result.AsError<CustomerDTO[]>();

        // Convert entities to DTOs (disconnected from NHibernate context)
        var dtos = ObjectMapper.Map<CustomerDTO[]>(result.Data);
        return Result.AsSuccess(dtos);
    }
}
```

{
    bool IsInitialized { get; }
    bool IsAuthenticated { get; }
    Task<Result> AuthenticateAsync(AuthenticationRequest request);
    Task<Result<T>> GetAsync<T>(string endpoint, object parameters = null);
    Task<Result<T>> PostAsync<T>(string endpoint, object data);
}
```

**Error Handling and Resilience**
```csharp
public class ResilientApiClient : IExternalApiClient
{
    private readonly IRetryPolicy _retryPolicy;

    {
        return await _retryPolicy.ExecuteAsync(async () =>
        {
            return await _circuitBreaker.ExecuteAsync(async () =>
            {
                // Actual API call
                return await ExecuteHttpRequestAsync<T>(endpoint, data);

## 5. Performance Architecture

### 5.1 Performance Optimization Strategies

#### **5.1.1 Database Performance**

**Query Optimization**
- **Lazy Loading**: NHibernate lazy loading for related entities
- **Query Batching**: Batch multiple queries to reduce round trips
- **Caching**: Second-level cache for frequently accessed data
- **Indexing**: Strategic database indexing for performance

```csharp
public class CustomerMapping : ClassMap<Customer>
{
    public CustomerMapping()
    {
        // Lazy loading configuration
        References(x => x.Address).LazyLoad();
        HasMany(x => x.Orders).LazyLoad().Cascade.SaveUpdate();

        // Caching configuration
        Cache.ReadWrite().Region("Customers");
    }
}
```

**Connection Management**
```csharp
public class OptimizedConnectionManager
{
    private readonly IConnectionPool _connectionPool;

    public async Task<T> ExecuteWithOptimalConnection<T>(Func<IDbConnection, Task<T>> operation)
    {
        using var connection = await _connectionPool.GetConnectionAsync();

        // Connection-level optimizations
        await connection.ExecuteAsync("SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ COMMITTED");

        return await operation(connection);
    }
}
```

#### **5.1.2 UI Performance**

**WPF Optimization Techniques**
- **Virtualization**: ListView and DataGrid virtualization for large datasets
- **Data Binding**: Optimized binding with change notification
- **Rendering**: GPU acceleration and rendering optimization
- **Memory Management**: Proper disposal and memory cleanup

```csharp
public class VirtualizedDataGrid : DataGrid
{
    protected override void OnLoaded(RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        // Enable virtualization
        VirtualizingPanel.SetVirtualizationMode(this, VirtualizationMode.Recycling);
        VirtualizingPanel.SetIsVirtualizing(this, true);

        // Performance optimizations
        EnableRowVirtualization = true;
        EnableColumnVirtualization = true;

        base.OnLoaded(e);
    }
}
```

    {
        return await _retryPolicy.ExecuteAsync(async () =>
        {
            using var client = _httpClientFactory.CreateClient();
            var response = await apiCall(client);

            if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
            {
                var content = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
                var result = JsonSerializer.Deserialize<T>(content);
                return Result.AsSuccess(result);
            }

            return Result.AsError<T>($"API call failed: {response.StatusCode}");
        });
    }
}
```

            CheckGLSHealthAsync(),
            CheckShipcloudHealthAsync(),
            CheckITscopeHealthAsync(),
            CheckIcecatHealthAsync()
        };

        var results = await Task.WhenAll(healthChecks);

        return new IntegrationHealth
        {
            OverallStatus = DetermineOverallStatus(results),
            ServiceStatuses = results,
            CheckTimestamp = DateTime.UtcNow
        };
    }
}
```

```csharp
public class DataSynchronizationService
{
    private readonly IEventBus _eventBus;

    public async Task SynchronizeCustomerDataAsync(int customerId)
    {
        // Publish synchronization event
        await _eventBus.PublishAsync(new CustomerDataSyncRequested
        {
            CustomerId = customerId,
            SyncTimestamp = DateTime.UtcNow,
            RequiredSystems = new[] { "FinAPI", "CRM", "Helpdesk" }
        });
    }
}

public class CustomerDataSyncHandler : IEventHandler<CustomerDataSyncRequested>
{
    public async Task HandleAsync(CustomerDataSyncRequested @event)
    {
        // Coordinate synchronization across systems
        var syncTasks = @event.RequiredSystems.Select(system =>
            SynchronizeWithSystemAsync(system, @event.CustomerId));

        await Task.WhenAll(syncTasks);
    }
}
