Hyperlytix

System Architecture & API Compliance

Hyperlytix is designed from the ground up to comply strictly with marketplace Developer Agreements. We utilize modern authentication, aggressive rate-limit management, and adhere strictly to data privacy frameworks.

Authentication Security

We authenticate all API requests using the OAuth 2.0 protocol. We utilize both Client Credentials Grants for public metadata (Taxonomy) and Authorization Code Grants for seller-specific actions (Inventory).

  • User passwords are never intercepted or stored.
  • Access tokens are short-lived and securely transmitted over TLS 1.3.
  • Refresh tokens are encrypted at rest using AES-256 standard encryption.

Rate Limiting & Resource Protection

To ensure we never place undue burden on upstream API servers, our request engine includes strict operational governors.

  • Exponential Backoff: Automatic suspension and retry delays when 429 (Too Many Requests) or 50x errors are encountered.
  • Header Monitoring: Our application actively reads `X-RateLimit` headers to throttle our own outbound queues before platform limits are reached.

Strict Anti-Scraping Policy

Hyperlytix maintains a Zero-Scraping Policy. 100% of marketplace interactions (valuing ISBNs, retrieving taxonomy, drafting listings) occur through officially documented REST API endpoints. We do not employ bots, HTML parsers, or unauthenticated crawling tools.
