Control Plane vs Open Core

Open Core gives you reusable primitives.

The control plane governs the production decision path.

Open Core

Open Core is portable and reusable. It should be possible to understand and adopt these packages without owning Orlo’s database or deployment infrastructure.

Use it when you want:

• validation primitives
• runtime adapters
• agent-governance SDKs
• reusable UI components

Control Plane

The control plane is where Orlo becomes a product.

This is the layer that sits on the path between a live request and a consequential outcome. It adds:

• org-scoped persistence
• state transitions
• async jobs
• approval workflows
• deployment lifecycle
• retrieval orchestration
• audit and trace review

That is why production deployments use Orlo Platform, while Open Core remains a portable package surface.
