Axon

Architecture & Purpose

Axon is the public, open network layer that connects all CareAgent deployments. It maintains a trust registry of credentialed providers and organizations, enables provider discovery so patients can find verified care, and brokers connections between agents. Axon is protocol-level infrastructure -- it does not handle PHI (protected health information), only the metadata of trust relationships. Anyone can run an Axon node, making the network federated and resilient.

Key Features

• Distributed trust registry for credentialed providers
• Provider discovery service for patient-initiated connections
• Connection brokering between CareAgent instances
• Open protocol specification for federated participation
