====== P1-REQ-13-5-008 ======

[[dido:99_annexes:annex-d-requirements:part-01:start|Return to Part 1 Requirements]]

===== Statement =====

The Conceptual Architecture SHALL NOT treat a [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:r:runtime_plane|Runtime Plane]] as a DDS Domain, DDS Topic, DDS partition, Kubernetes namespace, network segment, container group, security zone, or deployment environment.

===== Source =====

Part 1, Section 13.5: Runtime Plane Requirements.

===== Rationale =====

A Runtime Plane expresses architectural purpose. DDS Domains, DDS Topics, DDS partitions, Kubernetes namespaces, network segments, container groups, security zones, and deployment environments express implementation or deployment concerns.

Treating a Runtime Plane as one of these mechanisms collapses conceptual runtime purpose into a selected technical or operational arrangement.

===== Applies To =====

This requirement applies to all Runtime Plane references within the Conceptual Architecture.

It applies specifically to separation between Runtime Planes and:

  * DDS Domains
  * DDS Topics
  * DDS partitions
  * Kubernetes namespaces
  * Network segments
  * Container groups
  * Security zones
  * Deployment environments

===== Verification =====

Verification SHALL confirm that the Conceptual Architecture does not treat a Runtime Plane as an implementation or deployment mechanism.

Verification activities include review checks confirming that:

  * Runtime Plane references identify architectural purpose
  * DDS constructs do not replace Runtime Plane concepts
  * Kubernetes constructs do not replace Runtime Plane concepts
  * Network and security boundaries do not replace Runtime Plane concepts
  * Deployment environments do not replace Runtime Plane concepts
