π§Node Guide
In the Aethir network ecosystem, the node is a key element in its operation. Nodes play an essential role in maintaining the integrity, performance and overall functionality of the network.
What is a node?
In the Aethir network, a node is a computing device or software unit that is involved in network operations. These processes may vary according to the specific type of node and its role in the ecosystem. Basically, however, a node acts as an essential element in facilitating communication, processing and validation within the network.
Key elements in the Aethir Network
Checker Node
A Checker Node is responsible for ensuring the integrity and performance of containers within the Aethir network.
It verifies container specifications provided by container suppliers in order to maintain network quality of service (QoS).
Checker Nodes use various methods such as Heartbeat collection, Benchmark testing and Link data analysis to fulfill their responsibilities.
Containers
Essential to the Aethir network, they form the basis for the use of cloud services.
Virtual endpoints: Responsible for running and displaying applications, they guarantee an immediate, responsive cloud computing experience.
Zero lag: achieved by transferring the workload from local devices to containers, optimizing performance.
Indexer
Essential components of the Aethir network, they help to connect consumers with the right containers.
Quick launch: Ensure rapid deployment of cloud-based applications and services, for a smooth transition from demand to delivery.
Efficient scheduling: Get near-instantaneous service through concise signaling and optimized scheduling methods.
Node functions
The nodes in the Aethir network perform a variety of functions essential to its operation and maintenance. These key functions include
Verification and validation: Nodes verify the integrity and specifications of containers, ensuring compliance with network standards and quality requirements.
Processing and execution: Container nodes execute applications and services, processing user requests and providing real-time results.
Resource allocation: Indexing nodes allocate resources efficiently, matching user requests with available container capacity to optimize performance.
Reward distribution: Control nodes participate in reward distribution mechanisms, earning tokens for their contributions to network validation and maintenance.
