   I've started exploring the AboutCode and ScanCode ecosystem, and I'm particularly interested in understanding how the current infrastructure can scale for large volumes of shared scan data. and I'd like to help investigate the existing architecture, identify storage and compute scalability challenges, and work towards documenting practical improvements for the target architecture.

   Before I start, could you please point me towards any existing architecture documentation or specific areas that would be most useful for an initial contribution? so that i can start.
   Thank You.

   @saksham242007 Thanks for you interest but

   1. we do not have yet a documentation for the infra, this is the purpose of this issue
   2. I appreciate your enthusiasm but this is an issue that needs to be worked on by the core maintainers first (hence the new label:maintainers-only)

   So this is something we will work out directly. You are welcome to help and jump in once we have started
