DADI status report
Q4 2017
Welcome to the first of what will be quarterly status reports. We will be publishing these high-level updates each quarter to help keep the community across development progress. The status reports are in addition to our fortnightly roadmap updates and ad-hoc release notices.
Delightfully (and not by design we promise!), we are running some way ahead of schedule this quarter. The beta release of Publish is with us and we have reached significant milestones for API, Web, CLI and Queue. (The latter two were original pegged for Q1 2018.)
We’ve built a testing platform for core network components (Stargates, Gateways and Hosts) and will be installing them in a secure facility and performing live tests in the coming months.

Delivered to date in Q4
Our first Stargate
Build completed November 06th 2017
These are the internals of Stargate 1:
It’s a high spec custom build designed as a test bed for network performance (throughput, latency, messaging etc.) in a small (c10 Host) decentralised network. It’s early days, but we’re making strong progress and will be publishing much more on this front in the coming weeks and months.
