About This Architecture

Contract Analysis System using a medallion architecture (Bronze-Silver-Gold) ingests raw contracts through an upload process into a backend system, then routes them through a data pipeline with AI processing for clause extraction and vector embeddings. Raw contracts flow from the Raw Contract Store through ETL transformation into the Curated layer, where an AI Processing Module generates parsed clauses and embeddings stored in a Vector DB alongside analysis results. The Aggregated Gold layer feeds a cache-backed API Gateway that serves analysis results to end users, demonstrating a scalable pattern for document intelligence workflows. Fork this diagram on Diagrams.so to customize data sources, add streaming connectors, or integrate your preferred vector database and LLM provider. This architecture separates ingestion, processing, and serving concerns, enabling independent scaling of each tier.

People also ask

How do you design a data pipeline to ingest contracts, extract clauses with AI, and serve analysis results at scale?

This L1 DFD shows a medallion architecture where raw contracts flow through a backend ingestion system into a Bronze layer, then through AI-powered ETL into Silver (parsed clauses, embeddings), and finally into Gold (aggregated analysis). Results are cached and served via API Gateway, enabling fast retrieval and independent scaling of processing and serving tiers.
