Design
OpenXPKI is mostly written in Perl. The software is separated into a server process and several client implementations which communicate with the server via Unix Domain Sockets.
One of these client implementations is a web frontend that allows users to access the OpenXPKI system using a web browser. A different client implements a SCEP server.
The OpenXPKI server mainly consists of a toolbox that provides the core cryptographic functions and a workflow engine that allows to define workflows implementing the PKI processes.
