**ReCodEx** is designed to be very modular. In the following picture main components are arranged into one possible configuration. Note, that connections between components are not fully accurate.
**ReCodEx** is designed to be very modular. **WebApp** is considered to be frontend part of whole system while all other parts/services are considered to be backend part. **WebApp** contains almost all logic of the app including _user management and authentication_, _storing and versioning files_ (through connection with **Fileserver**), _counting and assigning points_ to users etc. **WebApp** is connected with **Broker**, **Fileserver** and partially with **Monitor**. **Broker** is essential part of whole architecture and can be marked as single point of failure.
**Web app** is main part of whole project for users. It provides nice user interface and is the only part, that interacts with outside world directly. **Web API** contains almost all logic of the app including _user management and authentication_, _storing and versioning files_ (with help of **File server**), _counting and assigning points_ to users etc. **Broker** is essential part of whole architecture and can be marked as single point of failure. It maintains list of available **Workers**, receives submissions from the **Web API** and routes them further and reports progress of evaluations back to the **Web app**. **Worker** securely runs each received job and evaluate it's results. **Monitor** resends evaluation progress messages to the **Web app** in order to be presented to users.
Almost whole communication goes through **Broker** and ZeroMQ messaging middleware. When **Web app** wants to execute submission then all datas are handed over to **Worker** through **Broker**, similar situation is with progress state which start in **Worker** goes through **Broker** then pass **Monitor** and end up in **Web app** (as WebSockets). Only part of communication, which does not include **Broker**, is communication with **File server** which is realized through HTTP commmunication. This communication can be initiated by **Web API** or by **Worker**, other services have no access to **File server**. Detailed view into communication is on separate page [[Communication]].
Almost whole communication goes through **Broker** and `ZeroMQ` messaging middleware. When **WebApp** wants to execute submission then all datas are handed over to **Worker** through **Broker**, similar situation is with progress state which start in **Worker** goes through **Broker** then pass **Monitor** and end up in **WebApp**. Only part of communication, which does not include **Broker**, is communication with **Fileserver** which is realized through `HTTP` commmunication.

Summarize of above stated can be found in overall architecture image (green arrows = `HTTP` communication, red arrows = communication through `ZeroMQ`).

**Worker's** main role is securely execute given submission and possibly _evaluate_ results against model solutions provided by submitter. **Worker** is logicaly divided into two parts:
- **Listener** - listens and communicates with **Broker** through [ZeroMQ](http://zeromq.org/). It receives new jobs, communicates with **Evaluator** part and sends back results or progress.
