Goals
The main goal of v0.1 is to:
- Bootstrap an initial consortium that will scan the network
- Support scoring of Filecoin Storage Providers only
- Have a basic MVP protocol running on FVM (or on Ethereum)
Protocol
The protocol for v0.1 will be a simplified version and it will be useful for bootstrapping the network.
Protocol v0.1 (Initial Consortium)
Phases
‣
Phase 0: Gather reporting nodes (in progress)
We are targeting 10 initial nodes that will contribute in reporting metrics about the network.
Roles
- Scan the target networks (see phases)
- Report data metrics

To Contact | ||||
To Contact | Pando [We can add evergreen data too] | |||
To Contact | not interested in becoming an auditor | |||
To Contact | consumes dealbot data | |||
To Contact | ||||

To Contact | Yes - csv, not interested in joining as an auditor | |||
To Contact | ||||
Open to provide data, Pando | ||||
To Contact | Interested in joining as auditors. Willing to add retrieval prices to their tool, open to test retrievals. They also have a proposal for aggregator node | |||
‣
Early nodes for evaluating the network performance
‣
- Consumes data from Retrieval Bot to list retrievability
- RetBot was built by Digital Mob
‣
- https://filplus.d.interplanetary.one/statistics ← all these data is available through a public API
- https://documenter.getpostman.com/view/131998/Tzsim4NU#8478e483-782a-45a6-925e-03eb4e39f973

‣
Phase 1: Agree on standard for reported metric
Metrics
Basic metrics we want to gather in this first versions of the protocol are the following:
- Time to first byte
- Key feature: low latency
- Average Retrieval Speed (MB/s)
- Key feature: high speed retrieval
- Actual Retrieval Success (percentage)
- Key Feature: SP reliability wrt retrieval
‣
Phase 2: Run aggregator for on-chain metrics reporting
- Choose what chain we use to report the metrics
