Axinom Mosaic

The platform for building modular, service-oriented backends.

Mosaic provides the foundation that every service needs: identity and access management, a unified management UI, messaging, isolated environments, hosting, and more. You focus on your business logic.

What Mosaic Provides​

  • Identity and access Users, service accounts, roles, and permissions, shared by all services. Connect your own identity providers.
  • Management System One web application for all services. Each service contributes its own UI as microfrontends.
  • Messaging Reliable, asynchronous communication between services through commands and events on RabbitMQ.
  • Environments Isolated, self-contained instances for development, staging, and production.
  • Hosting Deploy and run your services on managed Kubernetes infrastructure, with storage and CDN.
  • Libraries and tools Backend and frontend packages, UI components, a CLI, and AI agent skills.

The core services run these capabilities for every environment, and the libraries connect your services to them.

How Mosaic Works​

Services as Building Blocks​

A Mosaic solution is made of independent services, following a microservice architecture. Each service owns its data and logic, and can be developed, deployed, and scaled on its own.

Mosaic does not dictate who builds or runs a service. It defines how services plug into the platform, whether they are your own services, third-party services, or managed and customizable services powered by Mosaic.

Management and Provisioning​

Mosaic separates two sides, each optimized for its own needs:

Management side

  • Used by editors and administrators
  • Unified UI in the Management System
  • Complex business rules and publishing workflows

Provisioning side

  • Used by your end-user apps
  • Optimized for high load
  • CDN-ready, with frontend-focused data structures

Service Communication​

Services communicate through well-defined, strongly typed interfaces:

  • Synchronous: GraphQL APIs
  • Asynchronous: RabbitMQ commands and events. Learn more

All communication goes through the same authentication and authorization layer.

Environments​

Mosaic is multi-tenant. Each tenant can have multiple isolated environments, each a complete, self-contained instance with its own management and provisioning side:

  • Separate databases and message queues
  • Independent users and service accounts
  • No data shared between environments
note

Environments are not publication targets. Each environment is a complete, isolated system.
