The document discusses the Ipro platform, which is a collection of microservices that provides functionality for Ipro for enterprise. It describes the key components, which include the Ipro Identity Server, Ipro Web, Ipro Web API, and Ipro Job Manager Agent. The platform establishes an identity provider, uses Redis for message queuing, implements Material Design, exposes public APIs, and enables features like faster development and support for multiple browsers. It provides an example of how the public APIs could be used to automate user account creation from Jira.
