System Architecture
Ocean Finance implements a sophisticated multi-layered architecture designed for security, scalability, and cross-chain interoperability. The system is built around modular smart contracts with clear separation of concerns and comprehensive flow management.
High-Level Architecture
Core System Flows
1. Minting Flow
2. Staking & Yield Distribution Flow
3. Strategy Execution Flow
4. Redemption Flow
5. Cross-Chain Flow
Data Flow Architecture
1. Asset Flow
2. Information Flow
3. Access Control Flow
Security Architecture
1. Multi-Layer Security Model
2. Risk Mitigation Framework
Performance & Scalability
1. Gas Optimization
Batch Operations: Multiple strategy operations in single transaction
Efficient Storage: Packed structs and optimized storage slots
Minimal External Calls: Reduced cross-contract communication
Share Calculation: Optimized precision with 4-decimal offset
2. Scalability Features
Modular Handlers: Easy addition of new strategies
Cross-Chain Support: LayerZero integration for multi-chain scaling
Upgradeable Components: UUPS pattern for AddressProvider
Event-Driven Architecture: Comprehensive event logging for off-chain processing
3. Monitoring & Analytics
Deployment Architecture
1. Contract Deployment Order
2. Network Configuration
Each deployment network requires:
Oracle Feeds: Chainlink and Pyth price feeds
External Protocols: Handler integrations (Ethena, Sky, Nest)
LayerZero: Cross-chain messaging configuration
Access Control: Initial admin and service role assignments
3. Upgrade Strategy
AddressProvider: UUPS upgradeable for address management
Core Contracts: Immutable for security and trust
Handler Contracts: Replaceable through StrategyAllocator
Configuration: Adjustable parameters through governance
This comprehensive architecture ensures Ocean Finance can operate securely and efficiently while maintaining flexibility for future enhancements and integrations.
