Information About DADI

DADI is a decentralized web service that utilizes blockchain with the hopes of revolutionizing cloud computing. It aims to reduce the grasp and control of the handful of powerful corporations that have risen to control much of the Internet, and allocates that power amongst the DADI participants, all of whom can become beneficiaries of revenues earned.

Corporations such as Google, Facebook and Amazon have grained a large percentage of the market share in their respective fields, and whilst web services are extremely helpful, their foothold in the industry smothers competitors, which leaves them free to charge extremely high commission fees for a simple online service.

DADI aims to change all that by introducing a decentralized platform that promises users benefits such as a reduction of up to 90% in costs, increased security and rate flexibility.

The new cloud computing service is built on the Ethereum blockchain to enable peer-to-peer (P2P) collaboration on a global scale. It focuses on the provision of web services to help bring a product to market, and allows any online device to connect to the platform as a miner and sell the computational power required by these services.

The potential for a decentralized global platform such as DADI is a great as can be. Since every business functioning on the online is powered by web services, each and every one of these businesses can leverage DADI’s technology to improve efficiency, lower costs and provide a securer way for its customers to purchase their services.

Unlike most other platforms being developed for, or making the switch to, a blockchain-based architecture, the technologies that power DADI services have already been launched and are being used to power products such as Empire Online, Monocle and Virgin Limited Edition.

Technology Behind DADI

DADI incorporates a series of open web services that function on a container layer built upon already-established P2P technologies. These open source web services provide users with streamlined, user-friendly solutions to carryout common tasks and help them build, scale and grow their digital products.

Currently, to set up an API the provider must first develop and API wrapper, acquire an instance, install the necessary software and integrate their code before beginning the maintenance phase. Then when it comes to scaling the product, things become even more complex. With DADI, all the user is required to is obtain a DADI API. There are 10 currently in production, 5 of which are already on the market. DADI APIs have been designed to scale with ease allowing developers to modify their technology to meet growing demand.

DADI APIs

DADI API (Complete)

DADI CDN (Under construction)

DADI Identity (Under construction)

DADI Match (Under construction)

DADI Predict (Under construction)

DADI Publish (Complete)

DADI Queue (Complete)

DADI Track (Under construction)

DADI Visualize (Under construction)

DADI Web (Complete)

Through the implementation of DADI APIs, users will be able to offer all kinds of services including, but not limited to:

  • Content and Publishing platforms and Content Distribution
  • Subscription services
  • Cost-sensitive products — charities, governments, any organization needing to divert budgets away from overheads
  • Content-classification — retrospectively reorganize content using highly accurate taxonomic framework to improve SEO and usability
  • Ecommerce
  • Big Data — stores user data across multiple products in a digital portfolio

DADI web services are organized around a series of micro services that provide intelligent applications for creating digital products. These ready-made solutions are designed to meet common requirements and provide an out of the box solution for almost every use case.

DADI API

A high-performance RESTful API layer designed in support of API-first development and the principles of COPE.

DADI PUBLISH

A writer’s window to the world of content creation. Flexible interfaces designed to optimize editorial workflow.

DADI WEB

A schemaless templating layer that can operate as a standalone platform or with API as a full stack web application.

DADI CDN

A just-in-time asset manipulation and delivery layer designed as a modern content distribution solution.

DADI STORE

A cloud storage solution for all types of data, with built-in security, privacy and redundancy.

DADI QUEUE

A lightweight queue processing system powered by Redis, featuring simple task routing and throttling.

DADI IDENTITY

Guarantees uniqueness of individuals — and powers segmentation — for anonymous and known users.

DADI TRACK

A real-time, streaming data layer providing accurate metrics at individual and product level.

DADI VISUALIZE

A data visualization interface for Identity and Track, capable of taking data feeds from virtually any source.

DADI MATCH

A taxonomic framework for automated content classification through machine learning, which plugs into Publish.

DADI PREDICT

A machine-learning layer that predicts user behavior at an individual level based on past interactions.

DADI CLI

DADI CLI is a command-line tool to help with the installation and customization of the various products of the DADI platform.

Users of the network are categorized the following:

Hosts: The network node owners who contribute computational power. DADI’s web services run inside a container within host environments. Hosts are incentivized for their participation in the network, they announce themselves by locked a small amount of DADI tokens, and are rewarded in DADI tokens for their work. The availability of the Hosts is managed through a proof of work system that also updates a reputation system to identify the most favorable Hosts.

Gateways: Network node owners who contribute bandwidth. These are the entry points to the network for Host and provide the domain name system that makes Host resources addressable. In essence they are the cache for Host processed content. Gateways are also rewarded with DADI tokens; a percentage of the tokens from all the Hosts connected to them. To become a Gateway the user must lock in a large amount of tokens, much more than the Hosts. This facilitates the reputation system and mitigates the risk of Sybil attacks.

Stargates: The provide vital functions in the network in the form of domain name mapping and Consumer-DADI contract negotiation. They are intended for extremely high bandwidth environments. Stargates are also rewarded with DADI tokens; a percentage of all Consumer tokens, and must lock in the most amount of tokens to announce themselves.

Consumers: Users of the network. These may either be businesses, governments, or even individuals, and their customers.

The DADI Token

The DADI Token is an ERC20 token for the Ethereum blockchain. All transactions on the network will be carried out using the DADI token with the largest slice of the tokens going to Hosts, a percentage of that being paid to the Gateways they are attached to, and then a smaller percentage is retained to support the network, and a similar percentage paid to the develop team.

The team will develop a wallet front-end interface that will allow Consumers to purchase services in the currency of their choice.
