Solutions

One control plane across gateways, models, tools, and systems of record

ForgeCrux sits in front of—or beside—what you already run. Northbound apps keep one contract. Southbound, we connect cloud and self-hosted models, MCP servers, existing API management, and enterprise systems without a rip-and-replace.

1

northbound contract

Apps and agents talk to ForgeCrux, not a mesh of vendor SDKs.

N

southbound systems

Models, MCP, APIs, and SoRs attach as catalogs—not rewrites.

Enterprise architecture

Integration without rip-and-replace

One northbound contract. Southbound, ForgeCrux coexists with current ingress, mesh, IdP, and systems of record.

Cloud and private

Strangler, not big-bang

Start with one domain or one gateway; expand as SLOs prove out.

Open contracts

HTTP, OpenAPI, OpenAI-compatible APIs, MCP, and OTel—no proprietary lock-in at the edge.

Systems of record stay put

ForgeCrux mediates identity, policy, and observability; SAP, CRM, and data platforms remain authoritative.

Complete Enterprise Integration capabilities

Everything required to publish, secure, mediate, observe, and operate enterprise integration workloads on ForgeCrux.

Enterprise uses

Integrate ForgeCrux beside the estate you already operate.

  • Enterprise architecture: one northbound contract for apps and agents
  • Integration teams: façade and strangler without freezing current gateways
  • Identity: Okta, Entra, Ping, and LDAP through the control plane
  • Data & AI: lakes, search, vectors, and model providers as catalogs
  • SRE: one OTel context from channel through every hop
  • Business domains: Salesforce, ServiceNow, SAP, Workday stay systems of record

Installation & deployment

Start with a thin slice; expand with GitOps.

  • Place ForgeCrux northbound; keep existing edge southbound if needed
  • Data planes in public cloud, VPC, Kubernetes, on-prem, or air-gap
  • Connectors for LLM providers, MCP, IdP, Kafka, and OTel
  • Kubernetes, Helm, Terraform, and Argo CD promotion
  • Optional dual-run with current API management
  • Signed artifact promotion for disconnected control

Setup & onboarding

Map, façade, unify identity, then grow the catalog.

  • Map channels, IdP, current gateways, SoRs, and telemetry backends
  • Pick one product or agent workflow with a clear owner
  • Façade first: ForgeCrux in front, backends unchanged
  • SSO and workload identity through the control plane
  • Propagate one trace ID across API, AI, MCP, and Agent hops
  • Onboard the next domain on the same GitOps path

Security & coexistence

Policy and identity stay central; systems of record stay authoritative.

  • mTLS to mesh and existing microservices
  • No proprietary lock-in at the edge—HTTP, OpenAPI, MCP, OTel
  • Vaulted credentials for SaaS and data connectors
  • Network and residency controls per environment
  • Audit of every southbound adapter call
  • Separation of duties for catalog vs runtime vs GRC

Coexistence patterns

Adopt ForgeCrux without freezing the current platform.

  • Façade: ForgeCrux northbound, existing gateway southbound
  • Strangler: domain-by-domain cutover with dual-run
  • Sidecar / mesh: mTLS to existing microservices
  • Event: consume and emit to Kafka and enterprise buses
  • Batch: scheduled agents and bulk inference jobs
  • Air-gap: disconnected control with signed artifact promotion

Connector catalog

What we speak on day one.

  • LLM providers and self-hosted OpenAI-compatible runtimes
  • MCP transports: stdio, SSE, Streamable HTTP
  • IdP protocols: SAML, OIDC, SCIM, LDAP
  • OTel, Prometheus, Kafka, syslog
  • Kubernetes, Helm, Terraform, Argo CD
  • Major CRM, ITSM, ERP, and collaboration suites

How teams run Enterprise Integration on ForgeCrux

Map the estate

Channels, IdP, current gateways, SoRs, and telemetry backends.

Pick a thin slice

One product or one agent workflow with a clear owner.

Façade first

Place ForgeCrux in front; keep backends and existing edge intact.

Unify identity

SSO and workload identity through the control plane.

One trace

Propagate context from channel through every gateway hop.

Expand the catalog

Onboard the next domain using the same GitOps path.
