Uploads: receiving a file does not release it
Model states between ingestion, inspection and use.
Content produced with AI assistance for Thiago Silva’s website. Independent editorial analysis; it does not represent clients or employers.
Reading context
A short architecture article. The technical reference supports the topic; hypothetical scenarios and assessment proposals are editorial analysis, not accounts of personal implementations.
Original source ↗The architecture decision
Upload flows are often described as receive and store. The critical decision comes later: when may other components open or distribute the content?
Practical application
Editorial proposal: define received, under-review, accepted and rejected states. In a hypothetical portal, prevent download URLs from bypassing inspection decisions. Define what happens to files left pending after failures.
How to verify
Test a processing delay and confirm the interface does not show the file as available. Record who may retry or discard it. Keep consumption authorization aligned with actual state, including operational exceptions and abandoned-content cleanup.
