Introduction Protocols play a crucial role in defining how data is shared and managed in the evolving landscape of decentralized web technologies. This blog post explores the concept of protocols within Decentralized Web Nodes (DWNs) and their importance in shaping the future of decentralized applications. What are Protocols in DWNs? Protocols in the context of Decentralized Web Nodes are more than just communication rules. They serve as comprehensive blueprints that define both the data schema and the contract by which two DWNs agree to communicate and share data. In essence, protocols encapsulate two critical aspects of decentralized applications: Data Schema:…

Hi all. This is a late addendum to my last post As I have found out, like the Allies had for those river crossings at Operation Market Garden, stateful sets are not as trivial as they initially appear: most guides will just tell you what's their purpose and how to get them running, which leaves a false impression that synchronized data replication across pods happens automagically (sic) Well, it doesn't Crossing that River. No Matter the Costs That special type of deployment will only give you guarantees regarding the order of pods creation and deletion, their naming scheme and which…

Hello Time to forget about simple demo containers and struggle [not so much] with the configuration details of fully-featured applications. Today we not only put Kubernetes to production-level usage, but find out about some strengths and weaknesses of distributed computing Notes on storage Code nowadays, more than ever, works consuming and producing huge amounts of data, that usually has (or "have", since "data" is plural for "datum"?) to be kept for later. It's no surprise then that the capacity to store information is one of the most valuable commodities in IT, always at risk of being depleted due to poor…
