Atlas primitives

Atlas is organized around primitives rather than isolated features. Each primitive supplies a stable contract that products, analytics, integrations, and agents can share.

Primitive	Responsibility
Objects	Durable records for operational entities and Atlas artifacts
Identities	External and alternate keys that resolve to an object
Relationships	Typed connections between objects
Data surfaces	Governed access to operational records and projections
Metrics	Reusable measurements with defined grain and lineage
Analyses	Decision-oriented interpretation of metrics and evidence
Lists	Governed collections of object records
Cycles	Operating cadence, stages, and transition history
Semantic layer	Shared definitions for fields, metrics, filters, and lineage
Decision layer	Governed practices, policies, rules, guidance, and outcomes
Planner, execution, and audit	Governed movement from intent to accountable action

From signal to action

Data enters Atlas through governed data surfaces. Atlas resolves records to objects, applies semantic meaning, evaluates the relevant operating context, and makes the result available to people, workflows, and agents. This separation matters: a provider payload can change without changing the business identity of an object, and a workflow can change without rewriting the object it contains.
