Overview概述

Since its inception, Palantir's software has been shaped by our customers' most demanding missions. From an initial focus on counterterrorism, Palantir's scope now encompasses 50+ verticals spanning everything from healthcare to shipbuilding to energy production to insurance; that is, nearly every core operational environment in the Western-aligned world.自成立以来，Palantir 的软件始终在客户最严苛的任务中不断塑造与演进。从最初专注于反恐，Palantir 的业务范围现已扩展至 50 多个垂直领域，涵盖医疗保健、造船、能源生产、保险等各个行业；换言之，几乎覆盖了西方阵营中所有核心的运营环境。

Palantir’s platforms and offerings are continuously developed through the methodology of Forward Deployed Engineering. This is the human equivalent of backpropagation, in which teams of engineers get as close as possible to a problem while working in concert with core engineering teams to relentlessly synthesize feedback and ship new features.Palantir 的平台与产品通过“前沿部署工程”（Forward Deployed Engineering）方法论持续迭代。这相当于人类版的“反向传播”：工程师团队深入问题一线，与核心工程团队紧密协作，不断整合反馈并快速交付新功能。

Palantir's platformsPalantir 平台

Across every sector, Palantir operates with a common architecture consisting of three platforms: AIP, Foundry, and Apollo. These platforms are collectively designed to function as an enterprise operating system. Foundry serves as the core Data Operations platform; AIP serves as the Generative AI platform; and Apollo is the continuous delivery platform that underpins them.在各个行业中，Palantir 均采用由 AIP、Foundry 和 Apollo 三大平台组成的通用架构。这些平台共同构成了一个企业级操作系统。Foundry 作为核心数据操作平台，AIP 作为生成式 AI 平台，而 Apollo 则是支撑两者的持续交付平台。

AIP and Foundry collectively consist of 300+ microservices and assets, all running in a highly available and autoscaling compute mesh, atop zero-trust security infrastructure that enforces a rigorous security posture across every component (for instance, aggressive node cycling to guard against advanced persistent threats).AIP 和 Foundry 总共包含 300 多个微服务与资产，运行在高度可用且可自动扩缩的计算网格中，并建立在零信任安全基础设施之上。该架构对每个组件都强制执行严格的安全标准（例如，通过积极的节点轮换来防御高级持续性威胁）。

Domain-specific offerings, such as those in Defense and Intelligence or the increasingly rich set of applications focused on Hospital Operations, extend the underlying capabilities of AIP and Foundry. This complex orchestration of foundational services and comprehensive operational offerings is only possible through Apollo’s autonomous approach to software delivery.领域专用产品（如国防与情报领域的产品，或日益丰富的医院运营应用）扩展了 AIP 和 Foundry 的底层能力。这种对基础服务与综合运营产品的复杂编排，唯有通过 Apollo 的自主软件交付方法才能实现。

The Ontology system本体（Ontology）系统

The heart of Palantir’s architecture is the Ontology system. The Ontology integrates an enterprise’s data, logic, action, and security policies into an intuitive representation that both humans and AI agents can wield.Palantir 架构的核心是本体（Ontology）系统。本体将企业的数据、逻辑、行动和安全策略集成到一个人类和 AI 代理都能理解并操作的直观表示中。

In a supply chain context, the Ontology might be used to integrate dozens of fragmented ERP, MES, CRM, customer, edge, and myriad other data sources into a common set of objects, or "nouns" - the manufacturing plants, production lines, customer orders, and other core concepts that constitute the operational world.在供应链场景中，本体可将数十个分散的 ERP、MES、CRM、客户、边缘设备及其他各类数据源，整合为一套通用的对象或“名词”——即构成运营世界的制造工厂、生产线、客户订单及其他核心概念。

These "nouns" are paired with "verbs", which are actions that must be orchestrated across workflows, such as updating purchase orders, changing distribution strategies, or running multi-step simulations to assess how to address a supply disruption.这些“名词”与“动词”配对，后者代表了跨工作流需要编排的动作，例如更新采购订单、调整分销策略或运行多步模拟以评估如何应对供应中断。

Each of these nouns and verbs can be powered by the full range of logic, from business rules, machine learning models, and optimizers to computations that chain together multiple engines across computing environments.每一个名词和动词都可以由全方位的逻辑驱动，包括业务规则、机器学习模型、优化器，以及跨计算环境链接多个引擎的复杂计算。

Multimodal, military-grade security controls encompass the objects, links, actions, functions, and other semantic and kinetic primitives all modeled inside the Ontology. This ensures that both humans and AI agents can orchestrate across the Ontology, but with the precision and guardrails required to sustain trust.多模态、军事级的安全控制涵盖了本体内部建模的对象、链接、动作、函数以及其他语义和动态基元。这确保了人类和 AI 代理在操作本体时，既能实现高效编排，又能保持维持信任所需的精确度与防护机制。

Data Services, Logic Services, and Workflow Services数据服务、逻辑服务与工作流服务

There are hundreds of services that work in concert with the Ontology system, including Data Services, Logic Services, and Workflow Services.有数百种服务与本体系统协同工作，其中包括数据服务、逻辑服务和工作流服务。

• Data Services encompass data connectivity, data transformation, data virtualization, data storage, data health monitoring, and data management.数据服务涵盖数据连接、数据转换、数据虚拟化、数据存储、数据健康监控以及数据管理。
• Logic Services encompass authoring business rules, training machine learning models, orchestrating external models, integrating LLMs and other forms of Generative AI, end-to-end Model Ops and Agent Ops, and more.逻辑服务涵盖业务规则编写、机器学习模型训练、外部模型编排、集成大语言模型（LLM）及其他形式的生成式 AI、端到端的模型运维（Model Ops）与代理运维（Agent Ops）等。
• Workflow Services enable interactive compute for analytical and operational use-cases, event-driven automations, scheduled automations, pro-code and low-code workflow authoring tools, and more.工作流服务支持用于分析和运营用例的交互式计算、事件驱动自动化、定时自动化、专业代码（Pro-code）和低代码（Low-code）工作流创作工具等。

All of these capabilities are natively connected with the Language, Engine, and Toolchain that constitute the Ontology system. Together, this enables a wide variety of analytics, applications, AI-driven agents and automations, and custom products to be built atop Palantir's architecture, all of which leverage platform-wide approaches to change management and release management, and which adhere to the security and governance controls configured by administrators.所有这些能力都与构成本体系统的语言、引擎和工具链原生连接。这使得在 Palantir 架构之上能够构建各种分析、应用程序、AI 驱动的代理和自动化系统以及定制产品。所有这些应用均利用平台级的变更管理和发布管理方法，并遵循由管理员配置的安全与治理控制。
