# Lexicon — Ontology — Bane's Lab > Every term in this category is listed as one record, with its kind, its definition and its aliases, the principles whose relations name it, the principle or… Canonical: https://banes-lab.com/ontology/lexicon # The Ontology The ontology is a queryable canon of software architecture. It holds every principle with its relations and its repair, every term with its definition, every algorithm with its contract, the reasoning that derives them, the layers they live in and how every tension between them is resolved, and every reference from one record to another is a link. ## Lexicon ## Sections - [Application Concerns](#lexicon-category-application-concerns) - [Architecture Review Evolution Governance](#lexicon-category-architecture-review-evolution-governance) - [Behavioral Patterns](#lexicon-category-behavioral-patterns) - [Causality / Ordering / Distributed Time](#lexicon-category-causality-ordering-distributed-time) - [Codebase / System Architecture Styles](#lexicon-category-codebase-system-architecture-styles) - [Contracts / Interfaces / Compatibility](#lexicon-category-contracts-interfaces-compatibility) - [Control / Coordination / Centralization](#lexicon-category-control-coordination-centralization) - [Coordination Surfaces](#lexicon-category-coordination-surfaces) - [Core Modular Design](#lexicon-category-core-modular-design) - [Core Vocabulary](#lexicon-category-core-vocabulary) - [Correctness / Determinism / Verification](#lexicon-category-correctness-determinism-verification) - [Creational Patterns](#lexicon-category-creational-patterns) - [Domain Architecture](#lexicon-category-domain-architecture) - [Domain Concerns](#lexicon-category-domain-concerns) - [Error Handling / Resilience](#lexicon-category-error-handling-resilience) - [Event Messaging Async](#lexicon-category-event-messaging-async) - [Infrastructure Concerns](#lexicon-category-infrastructure-concerns) - [Metadata / Self-Description / Declarative Systems](#lexicon-category-metadata-self-description-declarative-systems) - [Metaprogramming / Language-Oriented Architecture](#lexicon-category-metaprogramming-language-oriented-architecture) - [Model Architecture](#lexicon-category-model-architecture) - [Observability / Auditability / Traceability](#lexicon-category-observability-auditability-traceability) - [Operations Concerns](#lexicon-category-operations-concerns) - [Plugin / Extensibility / IoC](#lexicon-category-plugin-extensibility-ioc) - [Portability / Infrastructure / Deployment](#lexicon-category-portability-infrastructure-deployment) - [Processing Concerns](#lexicon-category-processing-concerns) - [Product Concerns](#lexicon-category-product-concerns) - [Quality Attributes](#lexicon-category-quality-attributes) - [Refused Tags](#lexicon-category-refused-tags) - [Runtime Concerns](#lexicon-category-runtime-concerns) - [Runtime Discovery / Dynamic Binding](#lexicon-category-runtime-discovery-dynamic-binding) - [Scalability / Performance / Optimization](#lexicon-category-scalability-performance-optimization) - [Schema / Canonical Data / Semantics](#lexicon-category-schema-canonical-data-semantics) - [Security Privacy Compliance](#lexicon-category-security-privacy-compliance) - [Self-Healing / Recovery / Deployment Safety](#lexicon-category-self-healing-recovery-deployment-safety) - [SOLID / Object-Oriented Design](#lexicon-category-solid-object-oriented-design) - [Streaming / Pipeline / Dataflow Processing](#lexicon-category-streaming-pipeline-dataflow-processing) - [Structural Patterns](#lexicon-category-structural-patterns) - [Taxonomy / Classification / Naming](#lexicon-category-taxonomy-classification-naming) - [Transactions / State / Concurrency](#lexicon-category-transactions-state-concurrency) ## Application Concerns Every term in this category is listed as one record, with its kind, its definition and its aliases, the principles whose relations name it, the principle or contract that carries the same name where one exists, and the layer its category belongs to.
