Bulletin: Hybrid Database-First Workflow Seed System
WiSE Bulletin: Hybrid Database-First Workflow Seed System
Overview
The Hybrid Database-First Workflow Seed System is a revolutionary approach to business simulation platform seeding that combines:
Golden Copy Schema Governance - Rigid, controlled foundation requiring formal approval for changes
Client Branch Isolation - Each workflow gets isolated database branch for complete data sovereignty
Smart Query Routing - Optimal performance through hybrid query architecture
CDM Harmonization - 100% compliance using existing collections only
Architecture Philosophy
Golden Copy Schema Management
The schema-only branch serves as the "Golden Copy CDM" - a rigid, controlled foundation that requires formal governance for any modifications.
Key Principles:
Main branch = Golden Copy (schema-only CDM authority)
All workflow seeds SOURCE from existing CDM-harmonized collections
Any schema EXTEND/APPEND requires Golden Copy governance approval
Flag extension needs for QA backlog, don't implement directly
Database-First AI Scaling
Novel approach using Neon DB branching where each client gets full database branch (not just schema) for complete isolation:
True Multi-tenancy - No shared state between clients
Zero-downtime Scaling - Instant branch creation
Complete Data Sovereignty - Each client owns their data branch
AI Context Preservation - Per-environment context maintained
Payload RBAC - Fine-grained access controls per branch
Hybrid Performance Architecture
Optimized for both isolation and performance:
Main Branch - Global knowledge and Trucast CM RAG (fast global queries)
Client Branches - Isolated client-specific data and workflows
Smart Query Routing - Automatic routing for optimal performance
Federated Knowledge - Cross-client insights while maintaining isolation

CDM Patterns Used
The system follows existing CDM harmonization patterns exactly:

Schema Extension Governance
The system includes built-in governance for schema changes:
Extension Request Structure
interface SchemaExtensionRequest {
workflowSeedId: string
requiredExtensions: SchemaExtension[]
businessJustification: string
impactAssessment: string
approvalStatus: 'pending' | 'approved' | 'rejected'
backlogPriority: number
}
Governance Process
DETECT & ALERT - System flags any schema extension needs
LOG TO BACKLOG - Creates formal change request
QA APPROVAL PROCESS - Routes through governance workflow
CONTROLLED UPDATE - Only updates Golden Copy after approval
Cold Start Management
This system serves as the ONE-OFF cold start solution:
