API Integration
This component exposes the following interfaces: - REST API: HTTP endpoints for external integration - Message Queue: Async processing via Redis/RabbitMQ - Database: PostgreSQL/ElasticSearch connectivity
🔒 Security & Compliance
Privacy Protection
- Data Anonymization: User identifiers are hashed using SHA-256
- Location Generalization: Geographic data reduced to 10km precision
- Sensitive Content Filtering: Automatic PII detection and removal
- Audit Logging: Comprehensive activity tracking for compliance
Legal Compliance
- GDPR Article 6: Legitimate interest basis for law enforcement
- Data Retention: Configurable retention policies (default: 2 years)
- Access Controls: Role-based permissions and authentication
- Encryption: Data encrypted at rest and in transit
📊 Performance & Monitoring
Metrics
- Throughput: Processes up to 10,000 posts/minute
- Latency: Sub-second response times for real-time analysis
- Accuracy: 95%+ sentiment classification accuracy
- Availability: 99.9% uptime with redundant deployments
