## Overview

Radix is Equinor’s Platform-as-a-Service, but this repository is an umbrella and infrastructure repository rather than the implementation of its developer-facing runtime. The documented user path is application registration through the Web Console, followed by Radix’s testing, build, deployment, runtime, and monitoring capabilities; those services live in other repositories. This tree contains Terraform infrastructure definitions and operational scripts, including cluster setup and monitoring and backup recovery. No source excerpts were available, so links between those infrastructure components are omitted where their callers or data flow cannot be verified.

Main entry points: [`terraform/subscriptions`](https://github.com/equinor/radix-platform/tree/master/terraform/subscriptions) (Terraform deployments), [`terraform/subscriptions/modules`](https://github.com/equinor/radix-platform/tree/master/terraform/subscriptions/modules) (Cloud resource modules), [`terraform/subscriptions/s940`](https://github.com/equinor/radix-platform/tree/master/terraform/subscriptions/s940) (Subscription configurations)
