Container substrate for certified connectors.
lnkpt is a lightweight container substrate designed to run certified connector products in a stable, predictable environment.
Each connector exposes an API surface — for example, a retention server API for ISO 42001 evidence retention, an audit log feed, or a connection to a .gov service.
lnkpt can run standalone to host a single connector or dedicated endpoint, making integration into existing infrastructure clean and low‑impact.

lnkpt is a container substrate. It provides a consistent runtime where certified connector products can be installed and operated reliably.
Connectors are delivered as separate products. Each connector exposes an API surface — such as a retention server endpoint, an audit log stream, or a connection to a .gov service — and lnkpt provides the environment in which those connectors run.
lnkpt has no dependencies and does not interact with any other substrate. It can be deployed on its own, including in standalone mode where a single connector exposes a clean, isolated endpoint.
Certified connectors running in a consistent environment
lnkpt ensures that each installed connector behaves consistently within the container. This provides a predictable operational environment for connector products.
- Container runtime — lnkpt provides a stable environment for certified connectors.
- Consistent behaviour — connectors run inside a predictable, controlled environment.
- Optional evidence output — connectors may produce evidence such as ISO 42001‑aligned retention logs or audit trails.
- Standalone or multi‑connector — lnkpt can host one connector or many, depending on deployment needs.
These foundations support deployments where connector behaviour must remain consistent over time.
Why a connector container matters
As more connector products are introduced — such as retention endpoints, audit feeds, or connections to regulated services — a consistent runtime becomes essential.
lnkpt provides a single container substrate for certified connectors, ensuring predictable behaviour and long‑term stability for connector products.
Standalone deployments allow organisations to introduce a single connector without modifying existing infrastructure.
Where lnkpt applies
lnkpt is designed for deployments where connector products must run in a stable, auditable, and consistent environment. It supports any context where connectors expose valuable API surfaces, including retention, audit, regulated services, and standards‑aligned data access.
- Retention connectors — API surfaces for evidence retention or long‑term storage.
- Audit connectors — API surfaces providing audit‑ready logs or compliance‑aligned data.
- Regulated service connectors — API surfaces connecting to .gov or other regulated endpoints.
- Enterprise connectors — API surfaces for internal systems or data services.
- Standalone deployments — a single connector exposing a clean endpoint without altering existing systems.
In these environments, lnkpt provides the container substrate that ensures connectors operate predictably and remain aligned with their certified definitions.
