Architecture Overview

Node Provider and dApp Provider

These entities supply resources to the network.

• Node Provider: Manages the infrastructure required to run nodes within the network.

• dApp Provider: Responsible for deploying and managing decentralized applications.

---

Dashboard

Acts as a centralized interface for management and monitoring.

• Facilitates interaction between clients, providers, and the network.

• Enables dApp and node management through an intuitive interface.

---

Client

Represents the end users interacting with the system.

• Communicates with the dApp Matchmaking layer to access appropriate nodes within the platform.

---

dApp Matchmaking

A service layer that helps connect clients to nodes that make up the subnetwork of their session.

---

Node

Represents the network participants that host the session logic for decentralized applications.

• In subnetworks, nodes are assigned roles as Coordinator or Witness.

• Interacts with the Registry to fetch dockerized session logic executables.

---

Registry

• Accepts zipped session logic executables from clients for verification and containerization.

• Initially hosts a private Docker registry, with future plans to push images to a decentralized storage system.

---

System Contract

A smart contract deployed on a blockchain network.

• Verifies proofs for ended sessions to determine correctness and reward distribution.
