PointSav Documentation

The engineering library for the PointSav platform — operating systems and services for regulated businesses that own their data, their AI, and their record-keeping outright. Where the monorepo holds the code, this wiki holds the reasoning: architecture, services, security, and the governance commitments that bind future development.

editorial(services): light Track-B pass on service-fs-data-lake — core content already correctly hedged (unikernel-planned vs plain-directories-today framing matches the sanctioned FLS pattern, not the banned wrong-claim-beside-retraction one); confirmed no service-pointsav-link crate exists anywhere in the monorepo (same phantom-crate pattern already found on diode-standard) and removed that fabricated See Also link, plus the unconfirmed service-places-filtering link (matches the app-orchestration-gis finding this session); stripped a 'verified against...' methodology citation from reader prose per register-documentation.yaml; register-clean EN+ES, 0 lint warnings

## Unikernel Implementation (Planned)

The target production deployment is a low-overhead unikernel providing a restricted API for the [[service-business-clustering|`service-business`]] and [[service-places-filtering|`service-places`]] intelligence layers to read raw data and write back processed results, enforcing clean separation between storage and analysis concerns. **Current state**: the unikernel envelope does not exist yet — the landing zones described above are plain host-filesystem directories, read and written directly by the GIS ingestion and analysis scripts (verified against `app-orchestration-gis`'s own ingestion scripts, which read/write these paths with ordinary file I/O). The [[retail-co-location-tier-methodology|retail co-location tier methodology]] describes how the clustering output is used to generate tier rankings, once that analysis layer is built.
