Zero Trust Engineering — Application dependency and transaction mapping

/02 About

Applications and workloads engineering reference for application dependency and transaction mapping, including policy, logical interfaces, recovery and assurance.

Purpose: Application dependency and transaction mapping. Domain: Applications and workloads. Family: assurance. Scenario trigger: Observe inter-application request or dependency. Input assurance: Service calls, interface contracts and trace propagation. Evaluation: Reconcile observed operations with intended application dependencies. Governing policy: Approved application interaction and change review policy. Resource-side obligation: Publish verified service dependency graph and exceptions. Protected concern: Enterprise service-to-service topology. Logical interface: Caller service callee operation trace ID contract and confidence. Evidence: Request traces service identity relationships and confidence. Failure: Undiscovered critical dependency or unauthorized call path. Required recovery: Restrict unexpected integration and correct dependency inventory. Architectural invariant: A network connection is not equivalent to an approved application dependency Adoption: replace reference roles with concrete owner-controlled services. Specify exact provider/consumer identities, schema fields and classifications, signal provenance and freshness, idempotency, authorization lifetime, timeout/retry limits, observation and tamper evidence. A denied or failed operation must not silently become a permitted one. Scope: original vendor-neutral, implementation-agnostic technical reference model. Illustrative logical components and behaviors are neither a deployed system nor evidence of regulatory compliance. Package identities remain stable within the package; cross-package semantic reconciliation requires separate explicit registry support.
