# Which Problems Are Solved
There is no implementation of the permission framework in the new
command pattern. We risk forgetting permission options as we are already
migrating the service layer to the new pattern.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Use an permission checker interface, which will be a sub-interface of
the Permission Repository. The permission checker is passed in the
command executor and invoker as part of the command options. From here
the implementation can call the correct permission method.
This PR proposes a check method for each
[level](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/wiki/Internal-AuthZ#levels).

Improves compatibility of eventstore and related database components
with the new relational table package.
## Which problems are solved
1. **Incompatible Database Interfaces**: The existing eventstore was
tightly coupled to the database package, which is incompatible with the
new, more abstract relational table package in v3. This prevented the
new command-side logic from pushing events to the legacy eventstore.
2. **Missing Health Checks**: The database interfaces in the new package
lacked a Ping method, making it impossible to perform health checks on
database connections.
3. **Event Publishing Logic**: The command handling logic in domain
needed a way to collect and push events to the legacy eventstore after a
command was successfully executed.
## How the problems are solved
1. **`LegacyEventstore` Interface**:
* A new `LegacyEventstore` interface is introduced in the new
`database/eventstore` . This interface exposes a `PushWithNewClient`
method that accepts the new `database.QueryExecutor` interface,
decoupling the v3 domain from the legacy implementation.
* The `internal/eventstore.Eventstore` now implements this interface. A
wrapper, PushWithClient, is added to convert the old database client
types (`*sql.DB`, `*sql.Tx`) into the new `QueryExecutor` types before
calling `PushWithNewClient`.
2. **Database Interface Updates**:
* The `database.Pool` and `database.Client` interfaces in
`storage/eventstore` have been updated to include a Ping method,
allowing for consistent health checks across different database
dialects.
* The `postgres` and `sql` dialect implementations have been updated to
support this new method.
3. **Command and Invoker Refactoring**:
* The `Commander` interface in domain now includes an `Events()
[]legacy_es.Command` method. This allows commands to declare which
events they will generate.
* The `eventCollector` in the invoker logic has been redesigned. It now
ensures a database transaction is started before executing a command.
After successful execution, it calls the `Events()` method on the
command to collect the generated events and appends them to a list.
* The `eventStoreInvoker` then pushes all collected events to the legacy
eventstore using the new `LegacyEventstore` interface, ensuring that
events are only pushed if the entire command (and any sub-commands)
executes successfully within the transaction.
4. **Testing**:
* New unit tests have been added for the invoker to verify that events
are correctly collected from single commands, batched commands, and
nested commands.
These changes create a clean bridge between the new v3 command-side
logic and the existing v1 eventstore, allowing for incremental adoption
of the new architecture while maintaining full functionality.
## Additional Information
closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/10442
This PR initiates the rework of Zitadel's backend to state-persisted
objects. This change is a step towards a more scalable and maintainable
architecture.
## Changes
* **New `/backend/v3` package**: A new package structure has been
introduced to house the reworked backend logic. This includes:
* `domain`: Contains the core business logic, commands, and repository
interfaces.
* `storage`: Implements the repository interfaces for database
interactions with new transactional tables.
* `telemetry`: Provides logging and tracing capabilities.
* **Transactional Tables**: New database tables have been defined for
`instances`, `instance_domains`, `organizations`, and `org_domains`.
* **Projections**: New projections have been created to populate the new
relational tables from the existing event store, ensuring data
consistency during the migration.
* **Repositories**: New repositories provide an abstraction layer for
accessing and manipulating the data in the new tables.
* **Setup**: A new setup step for `TransactionalTables` has been added
to manage the database migrations for the new tables.
This PR lays the foundation for future work to fully transition to
state-persisted objects for these components, which will improve
performance and simplify data access patterns.
This PR initiates the rework of ZITADEL's backend to state-persisted
objects. This is a foundational step towards a new architecture that
will improve performance and maintainability.
The following objects are migrated from event-sourced aggregates to
state-persisted objects:
* Instances
* incl. Domains
* Orgs
* incl. Domains
The structure of the new backend implementation follows the software
architecture defined in this [wiki
page](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/wiki/Software-Architecturel).
This PR includes:
* The initial implementation of the new transactional repositories for
the objects listed above.
* Projections to populate the new relational tables from the existing
event store.
* Adjustments to the build and test process to accommodate the new
backend structure.
This is a work in progress and further changes will be made to complete
the migration.
