Managing decentralized automation workflows often leads to "fragmentation fatigue." This case study explores the development of the Fabalos Cockpit—a centralized management layer designed to monitor, onboard, and secure multiple client nodes from a single, high-fidelity interface.
High cognitive overhead caused by managing 30+ communication and deployment channels. Lack of a unified view for project milestones and secure client data isolation.
A custom-built IaaS portal (The Cockpit) utilizing SvelteKit for the UI and Supabase for the entire backend suite—Auth, Database, and Storage. Centralized project registry and modular capability toggling.
80% reduction in manual onboarding time. Absolute data perimeter defense established via RLS. Scalable administrative load regardless of the number of client nodes.
The stack was selected for monolithic stability. SvelteKit provides a clinical, low-latency interface, while Supabase handles the heavy lifting for both relational data and asset storage. The orchestration layer, powered by n8n, automates the feedback loop between system events and client notifications.
Implementing Row Level Security (RLS) across all project tables ensures that client data remains isolated. The "Uplink" protocol strictly maps authenticated UUIDs to specific project nodes, providing peace of mind for high-stakes automation deployments.
By leveraging Supabase Storage directly within the application ecosystem, we maintain strict Row Level Security (RLS) over files without needing complex third-party signing logic. This ensures that a client's "Project Vault" is just as secure as their database records, with zero additional configuration overhead.
