# Northstar
|
|
|
|
Northstar is a lookup service, which acts as a source of information
|
|
for interfaces which hold particular forge information.
|
|
|
|
An [Interface](@/Interface/_index.md) connects and looks
|
|
through an instance of Northstar, to find the appropriate the forge
|
|
information that it seeks.
|
|
|
|
An instance of Northstar has the functionality to act as an API to
|
|
register and provide forge information.
|
|
These routes/payloads are covered in the [OpenAPI specification](https://northstar.forgeflux.org/docs/openapi/)
|
|
for Northstar.
