Getting a Spheron Storage Key and Operating Task Nodes on the Koii Network
Spheron Overview
Spheron is a platform designed for creating and managing decentralized applications (DApps). It leverages blockchain technology to provide a secure, transparent, and decentralized environment. This makes it ideal for developers focused on building applications that benefit from blockchain’s inherent properties, such as immutability and security.
Relevance in Task Nodes
In the context of task nodes, which are responsible for executing and managing specific tasks within a network, Spheron’s technology ensures efficient and secure task processing. These nodes are integral to maintaining the operational efficiency of DApps on the blockchain.
Storage Key Definition and Purpose
A storage key in Spheron is a unique identifier or cryptographic key used for accessing and managing data within the platform. It plays a critical role in ensuring secure access to data, maintaining user privacy, and enabling interactions with smart contracts within the blockchain network.
Prerequisites
Ensure you have Koii Node installed.
Step-by-Step Guide to Getting a Spheron Storage Key
Step 1: Logging in
1. Visit the Koii Node platform.If you don’t have it, you can download it at here.
2. Enter your six-digit credentials to log in. If you don’t have an account, you’ll need to create one.
Step 2: Navigating to Storage Key Section
1. Once logged in, navigate to the Add Task dashboard.
Step 3: Generating a Storage Key
- Select the option to create a new storage key (click the gear wheel).
2. Click Get Key to automatically get the Spheron_Storage key.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions. Select Spheron_Storage.
Using the Storage Key in the Task Node
Step 1: Accessing the Task Node
- Click the gear wheel beside the task that you want to run.
Step 2: Entering the Storage Key
- Select the Spheron_Storage you created.
Step 3: Stake the tokens
- Stake the tokens (we call them KOII) to the program you want to run.
Step 4: Run the task
1. Click the triangular symbol to run the task!
