Logical Policy and Release Plane

Go up to Terms and Definitions

The Logical Policy and Release Plane supports governed access, disclosure, safeguarding, redaction, transformation, marking, obligations, and release of FX information.

Logical Policy and Release Plane interactions separate internal FX information distribution from authorised external disclosure. They identify how FX logical Nodes request policy evaluation, receive policy decisions, apply release constraints, prepare release packages, record obligations, and support controlled disclosure to an External Oversight Participant.

The Logical Policy and Release Plane remains distinct from the Logical Data Plane. Internal FX Data Plane distribution does not itself authorise release to an external participant.

Runtime Plane supporting governed access, disclosure, safeguarding, and release of information

Specialisation of Logical Policy and Release Plane from Part 2: Distributed Node-Based Logical Architecture, Section 9.5, and Policy and Release Plane from Part 1: Conceptual Architecture, Section 8.5; generalised from IEF policy-layer, policy-decision, release-control, redaction, obligation, and external oversight material in the original FX Demo Reference Architecture.

The Logical Policy and Release Plane is not a policy engine, release service, access-control product, redaction tool, gateway, API, or deployment boundary.

The FX Policy and Release Node evaluates whether selected FX transactions, validations, contract states, and cash-flow information qualify for release to an External Oversight Participant.
