Architecture

See ADR-001 for the full Postgres-as-OLTP decision and the API + write-back architecture.

Critical constraints

  1. ledger_entries table is append-only — enforced by database trigger. Corrections via reversal entries only.
  2. Balance checks for payment authorisation must read from this system — never from Snowflake.
  3. Interest accrual must complete for all accounts by 23:59 daily (NFR-006).
  4. Multi-currency postings must be atomic — both legs of a NZD/AUD conversion post in a single transaction.
