Jeri

Distributed Collaboration Core

Jeri is a modular, secure, and multimodal distributed collaboration engine, designed for global scale and maximum extensibility. It is the foundation for next-generation collaborative apps, automation, analytics, and edge/mobile ecosystems.

Vision

Jeri enables real-time, privacy-first collaboration for any data modality (text, vector, image, audio, etc.), with native support for CRDT/OT, automatic merge, immutable history, and global consistency. It is UI/database/network agnostic, ready for edge, cloud, mobile, desktop, P2P, and sensitive environments (finance, health, legal).

Architecture Highlights

• Modular: Each data modality is an independent, pluggable module.
• CRDT/OT Orchestrator: Manages operations, merges, and multiple CRDT types for global consistency.
• Event Bus: Internal, Protobuf-serialized, supports replay, automation, analytics, and plug-and-play integration (Kafka, RabbitMQ, AI, compliance).
• Privacy & Access: APIs for end-to-end encryption, granular access control, pluggable policies, KMS/Vault/OAuth/SSO/MFA integration.
• Persistence: Event log replay and state reconstruction.
• Extensible: SDK-ready, open ecosystem, plugin-friendly, easy integration with other languages.
