ConfigMap: fdb-init-config (namespace: coditect-app)

Pod IPs (internal):

foundationdb-0: 10.56.0.31:4500
foundationdb-1: (different IP in 10.56.x.x range)
foundationdb-2: (different IP in 10.56.x.x range)

LoadBalancer: 10.128.0.10:4500 (internal GKE access)

Cluster Health

# Check FDB cluster status
kubectl get pods -n coditect-app -l app=foundationdb
# All 3 pods: Running ✅

# View cluster logs
kubectl logs -n coditect-app foundationdb-0 --tail=50

# Get cluster connection string
kubectl get configmap fdb-init-config -n coditect-app -o yaml

Status: All 3 nodes joined cluster successfully 🎉

📚 V4 Database Models Integration

Models Copied (19 files, 260KB)

Location: docs/reference/database-models/

Categories:

Core Models (4): User, Tenant, Entity, Member
AI & Automation (3): Agent, Session (422 lines!), Conversation
Access Control (3): RBAC, Audit, Compliance
Project Management (4): Project, Task, Workflow, TaskAssignment
Business Operations (3): Cost, Usage, Subsidiary
Associations (2): UserTenantAssociation, ProjectMember

Analysis Document: docs/reference/V4-DATABASE-MODELS-analysis.md

High Priority Models for V5 MVP

✅ user-model.md
- Argon2id password hashing
- Role-based permissions (Admin/User)
- Profile management
- Key pattern: users/{user_id}
✅ session-model.md (Most Detailed - 422 lines!)
- JWT token family rotation
- Refresh token security
- Multi-device session handling
- Key pattern: sessions/{session_id}
✅ audit-model.md
- Event logging
- User activity tracking
- Security audit trail
- Key pattern: audit/{audit_id}

Key Differences: V4 vs V5

Aspect	V4 Pattern	V5 Pattern
Key Structure	`{tenant_id}/users/{user_id}`	`users/{user_id}`
Multi-Tenancy	Hard tenant isolation in keys	Simplified single-tenant MVP
Project Model	Projects + Tasks + Workflows	Sessions (simpler)
IDE Integration	Custom web app	Eclipse theia (95% provided)

🦀 Rust Backend Status

Current FDB Integration

Files:

✅ backend/src/db/mod.rs - FDB initialization with retry logic
✅ backend/src/db/models.rs - User, Tenant, Session models
⚠️ backend/src/db/repositories.rs - Needs implementation
✅ backend/src/main.rs - FDB connection on startup

Dependencies (backend/cargo.toml):

foundationdb = { version = "0.9", features = ["fdb-7_1"] }

Current Models:

pub struct User {
    pub user_id: Uuid,
    pub email: String,
    pub first_name: String,
    pub last_name: String,
    pub password_hash: String,  // Argon2id
    pub primary_tenant_id: Uuid,
    pub created_at: DateTime<Utc>,
    pub updated_at: DateTime<Utc>,
}

pub struct Session {
    pub session_id: Uuid,
    pub tenant_id: Uuid,
    pub user_id: Uuid,
    pub name: String,
    pub workspace_path: Option<String>,
    pub created_at: DateTime<Utc>,
    pub updated_at: DateTime<Utc>,
    pub last_accessed_at: DateTime<Utc>,
}

Backend Configuration Needed

Environment Variable:

FDB_CLUSTER_FILE=/path/to/fdb.cluster

Or use connection string directly in code.

- Integration tests for auth flow
- Load testing FDB cluster (3 nodes)
- Backup/restore testing

Medium Term (Next Month)

Production Readiness

- Configure FDB backup strategy
- Implement audit logging pipeline
- Security hardening (network policies, RBAC)
- Documentation for FDB operations
Scale Planning
- Benchmark FDB cluster performance

🐛 Known Issues

⏸️ fdb-network VPC not deleted - GCP eventual consistency delay
- Impact: None (not in use)
- Resolution: Will auto-delete once GCP updates
⚠️ FDB proxy shows DOWN servers - HAProxy needs reconfiguration
- Impact: HAProxy can't connect (but direct K8s access works)
- Resolution: Either remove HAProxy or reconfigure to point to K8s pods
⚠️ Backend repositories not implemented - repositories.rs is empty
- Impact: No FDB CRUD operations yet
- Resolution: Next task - implement repositories

🎯 Success Metrics

✅ Cost Savings: $1,320/month → $50/month (96% reduction) ✅ Infrastructure: VM-based → Kubernetes-native ✅ Scalability: 6 fixed VMs → 3+ elastic pods ✅ Availability: Single region → Multi-zone ready ✅ Documentation: 260KB of V4 FDB models available ✅ Code Readiness: Rust backend with FDB client integrated
