Search-first redirect management
Beacon
A calm, focused place to create, find, change, and review redirects.
Focused by design
Redirect work, kept understandable
Beacon concentrates on management workflows and leaves persistence and execution with the systems that own them.
Drift stays authoritative
Durable records remain tenant-scoped in Drift while Beacon keeps only rebuildable read projections.
Execution stays with Compactor
Beacon manages definitions and events without pretending to own redirect traffic or cache policy.
Why it exists
A management surface, not the redirect runtime
Redirects need deliberate editing, reusable destinations, lifecycle controls, and enough operational history to understand changes. The management application does not need to become the traffic engine or the system of record.
