The system&rsquo;s architecture is designed to be modular, with a split between launchd and Docker, allowing for flexibility and scalability. For instance, the use of Docker enables easy deployment and management of multiple models, while launchd provides a robust framework for managing system services. This modular design is a key aspect of sovereign systems, as it allows for the integration of various components and services without compromising the overall system&rsquo;s autonomy.</p>
