This section covers how the Corridor platform is installed, configured, and operated. It is written for the platform and infrastructure teams who run Corridor, rather than for the analysts who use it day to day.

For guidance on using the platform itself, see the [User Guide](/user-guide/).

## AI

How CORRA AI and Corridor MCP work, and how to connect an external agent.

- [AI Architecture](/technology/ai/): what CORRA AI and Corridor MCP are, and how the server runs
- [Bringing Your Own LLM](/technology/ai/llm-providers/): provider and credential configuration
- [Installing Corridor MCP](/technology/ai/installing-corridor-mcp/): hosting and client setup
- [What Corridor MCP Can Do](/technology/ai/capabilities/): the available capabilities, and the limits
- [Input and Output Guardrails](/technology/ai/guardrails/): how access is controlled and how the model's inputs and actions are constrained
- [Observability and Traceability](/technology/ai/observability/): logs, conversation records, and model telemetry

## Architecture

Understand how the platform is put together before installing it.

- [Architecture Overview](/technology/architecture/): the analytical layer and the production layer
- [Components](/technology/architecture/components/): the services that make up an installation
- [Networking](/technology/architecture/networking/): how those services communicate
- [Scalability and Sizing](/technology/architecture/scalability/): where to add resources when things slow down

## Installation

Everything needed to stand up a new instance.

- [Minimum Requirements](/technology/installation/minimum-requirements/)
- [Downloading the Platform](/technology/installation/downloading-the-platform/)
- [Bundle Install](/technology/installation/bundle-install/installation-bundle/) and [Docker Install](/technology/installation/docker-install/)
- [Configuration Setup](/technology/installation/configuration-setup/): API, web application, and Jupyter
- [Components](/technology/installation/components/): web server, metadata database, authentication, file management, process management, and data lake integration

## Customization
