ABP

An open protocol for booking scarce places.

The Allocation Booking Protocol books the allocation of a scarce place to a holder — a seat, a parking spot, an access badge, a time slot — under heavy real-time contention and without accidental oversell. It’s the shape of EPP (the protocol that registers domain names) applied to ephemeral, high-contention resources.

Open-source under Apache-2.0: the spec, the contract-first `.proto`, and a Go reference implementation. It is the technical base of Eventheca’s booking engine (Reservations) — the same way an open protocol underpins a commercial product.

Highlights

  • Open standard, Apache-2.0 (spec + .proto + Go reference)
  • The shape of EPP, contract-first gRPC
  • Two axes: commercial lifecycle × seat resolution
  • Technical base of Eventheca / Reservations
