## Entries

- [Determinism](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/determinism.md): A design rule that the same inputs and state always produce the same result, with time and randomness passed in as inputs.
- [Repeatability](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/repeatability.md): The degree to which rerunning the same test or process in the same environment gives the same result.
- [Vertical Scaling](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/vertical-scaling.md): A technique for adding capacity by giving one instance more CPU, memory or I/O.
- [Statelessness](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/statelessness.md): A design rule that a handler keeps no request state between calls, so any instance can serve any request.
- [Space Complexity](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/space-complexity.md): A measure of how an algorithm's memory use grows as its input grows.
- [Memory Efficiency](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/memory-efficiency.md): The degree to which a process handles its input with bounded memory, by streaming or chunking instead of loading it whole.
- [Least Privilege](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/least-privilege.md): A design rule that each user, service and process holds only the permissions its task needs.
- [Compliance](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/compliance.md): A rule or precondition that a system implements the controls a regulation or standard requires, and keeps evidence of each one.
- [One-Sided Liveness](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/one-sided-liveness.md): A design rule that a process's absence proves it is dead while its presence proves nothing, so liveness is derived once, from the witness first and from a generous window only where the witness cannot decide.
