Executive summary

What this paper covers

This paper is the complete technical reference for Cognitive Server — the sovereign cognitive infrastructure platform for regulated European industries. It covers the hardware base (certified appliance (Dell · HPE · Lenovo · xFusion), TPM 2.0, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS), the container runtime and GPU isolation layer, the AI stack (Ollama, Llama 3, Nomic embeddings), the MCP host implementation, and the four cognitive applications (Core, Vault, Hub, Nexus) wrapped by The Fabric (Shield, Bridge, Chain).

The target audience is technical evaluators: IT architects, CISOs, CTOs and procurement teams in regulated organisations. The paper assumes familiarity with OAuth 2.1, JSON-RPC 2.0, and the ISO 27001:2022 control framework. Non-technical executives should start with the sector briefings available at /resources.

The public version is redacted: deployment runbooks, network topology diagrams with IP ranges, and the full penetration test report are available under a signed NDA to qualified evaluators. See the restricted materials section at /resources for the request process.
