Centive Network
Monitoring & Verifying Node Reliability
For Distributed Networks, By a Distributed Network
INTRODUCTION
Centive Network
Centive Network is a monitoring and verification layer for distributed networks. By ensuring nodes meet performance standards through decentralized tests and fault detection, Centive enhances network efficiency, scalability, trust and observability, enabling more reliable and optimized distributed systems.
Key Features
Real-Time Node Monitoring
Leverage advanced APM agents and end-to-end testing to continuously track and evaluate node performance, ensuring optimal reliability and operational transparency across distributed networks.
Consensus Fault Verification
Centive Network uses distributed consensus to detect and confirm node faults through collaborative validator voting, ensuring reliable and unbiased verification.
Network Insights
Access detailed dashboards and analytics tools for both individual nodes and the distributed network as a whole, empowering operators with actionable insights into performance, reliability, and fault trends.
How It Works
Centive Network monitors and verifies node reliability through real-time performance tests, allowing nodes to focus on delivering quality services. This approach reduces resource wastage, improves scalability, and ensures efficient network operations.
Contribution Commitment
Real-Time Monitoring
Secret Voting and Consensus
Automated Slashing
Secure and Fair Payouts
Contribution Commitment
Nodes commit their intent to participate in the DePIN network by staking tokens in an optimistic process. This eliminates the need for complex cryptographic proofs, allowing nodes to focus entirely on delivering their core services.
Real-Time Monitoring
Centive Network uses APM agents and end-to-end tests to continuously monitor node contributions. This ensures that nodes are evaluated based on actual performance and sustained participation, not just discrete tasks.
Secret Voting and Consensus
If any node is suspected of acting unfairly, a report is generated, triggering a secret voting process by Centive’s distributed verifiers. Votes remain hidden until all are submitted, ensuring unbiased consensus.
Automated Slashing
Nodes found to be in violation of the network’s standards are penalized through an automated slashing mechanism. This helps maintain the integrity and reliability of the network by removing or reducing rewards for non-compliant nodes.
Secure and Fair Payouts
Nodes receive their rewards based on their validated contributions, ensuring a transparent and equitable distribution process that reflects actual performance.
Voting Process of Centive's Verifiers
To maintain the integrity and fairness of the Centive Network, a robust voting mechanism is implemented for verifiers. This process ensures that decisions regarding node performance and potential penalties are made transparently and without bias.
Secret Voting
All votes cast by verifiers are kept hidden until every verifier has submitted their vote. This prevents any influence or bias during the voting process and ensures that each verifier's decision is made independently.
Vote Revelation
Once all votes have been submitted, they are revealed simultaneously. This step is crucial in maintaining transparency and fairness in the voting process, as it discourages validators from colluding or lying about their votes.
Penalties for Incorrect or Missing Votes
Verifiers who vote incorrectly, whether due to negligence or malicious intent, face penalties. This penalty system is designed to uphold the integrity of the network and ensure that verifiers are incentivized to vote accurately and honestly.
Use Cases
Compute Networks
By tracking the computational resources each node contributes, Centive Network ensures rewards are based on real performance. This reduces costs, improves efficiency, and boosts scalability.
CDNs
In Content Delivery Networks, Centive measures data delivery speed, uptime, and consistency to reward nodes fairly. This lowers latency, optimizes resources, and improves content delivery.
Storage Networks
Centive measures the volume and quality of stored data, retrieval performance, and uptime, ensuring fair rewards for reliable storage and management, while enhancing data security and availability.
