Distributions Authority (DAL) — Integration Architecture (Phase 0 — High-Level)

Document Version: 1.0 Date: August 7, 2025 Author: CrownThrive, LLC — [email protected] Project: CHLOM™ — Compliance Hybrid Licensing & Ownership Model

1. Objective

Outline the high-level integration architecture for DAL, focusing on data flow, interoperability, and communication layers between DAL, DLA, LEX, and external payment and compliance systems. Phase 0 centers on blueprint creation and integration validation planning.

2. Core Integration Points

  • DLA (TLAAS)
    • License authenticity verification prior to payout initiation.
    • Identity-bound metadata retrieval (Fingerprint ID & DID) for recipient verification.
  • LEX (TLaaS)
    • Event-driven triggers for royalty and settlement distributions.
    • Transaction hash and license ID forwarding to DAL.
  • Compliance AI Modules
    • Fraud scoring and anomaly detection before release.
    • Jurisdiction-aware legal conformity checks.
  • CHLOM Ledger
    • Immutable recording of payout events and audit data.
    • Public verification interfaces for transparency.
  • ZK-Proofs & Privacy Layer
    • Privacy-preserving validation for payout accuracy.
  • External Payment Gateways
    • Multi-chain and multi-currency payout routing.
    • Integration with fiat off-ramp services.

3. Data Flow Overview

Step 1: LEX completes a license transaction → sends event data (license ID, amount, counterparties) to DAL. Step 2: DAL queries DLA for license validity, identity binding, and compliance status. Step 3: DAL’s compliance layer performs AI-driven checks and ZK-proof validation. Step 4: Approved transactions are routed through smart contracts to initiate payouts. Step 5: Payout events are recorded on the CHLOM Ledger and receipts issued to stakeholders.

4. Integration Security Controls

  • API authentication via cryptographic signatures.
  • Data encryption in transit and at rest.
  • Role-based access for internal CHLOM modules.
  • Automated integration health monitoring.

5. Scalability Considerations

  • Modular API endpoints for future integration with new CHLOM components.
  • Horizontal scaling for high transaction volume handling.
  • Event queue processing for burst traffic resilience.

6. Phase Allocation

Phase 0 — Document integration blueprint, define API specifications, and validate system dependencies. Phase 1 — Develop and test integration endpoints on a simulated network. Phase 2 — Implement identity, compliance, and ZK-proof modules. Phase 3 — Full-scale integration testing with live data. Phase 4 — Governance and monitoring integration. Phase 5 — Optimization and multi-industry expansion.

Next Step: Proceed to Compliance & Verification Flow for DAL to define the high-level compliance checks, identity verification sequence, and fraud prevention protocols.
