NuNet Q3 Recap
Greetings NuNetopians,
As we close out the third quarter of 2024, we’re excited to share the progress we’ve made and the milestones we’ve achieved over the past few months. It’s been a pivotal quarter for NuNet as we’ve laid the foundation for new features, enhanced transparency, and strengthened community engagement.
Product Launches
In Q3, NuNet made significant strides in its mission to build a decentralized computing and orchestration platform with the launch of three pivotal components: the Project Management Portal, Documentation Portal, and the much-anticipated DMS Release v0.5.x. These launches mark a major milestone in our journey toward transparency, collaboration, and cutting-edge decentralized device management.
Launch of Documentation Portal
In Q3, we launched the NuNet Documentation Portal. This portal is a vital resource for our open-source community, providing comprehensive, up-to-date documentation for all NuNet repositories. Designed to support transparency and collaboration, the portal ensures that contributors, developers, and partners have easy access to the latest project information and technical specifications.
The Documentation Portal features dynamic, living documentation that evolves alongside our platform, making it easier for our global community to engage, contribute, and stay informed. With detailed project overviews, contributor guidelines, and technical documentation, this portal is a cornerstone of our commitment to fostering an open, collaborative ecosystem.
Explore the Documentation Portal and be part of building the future of decentralized computing with NuNet!
Launch of Project Management Portal
In Q3 we also launched the Project Management Portal, a key tool designed to provide real-time visibility into our development progress. This portal offers our community and contributors a transparent view of ongoing projects, milestones, and releases, ensuring alignment across all stakeholders. With detailed project tracking and critical chain management integration, the portal helps streamline workflows and enhance collaboration across our decentralized platform.
The Project Management Portal empowers our community to stay informed and actively participate in NuNet’s development, providing updates from high-level overviews to detailed work packages. This launch reinforces our commitment to transparency and collaboration, driving the efficient execution of our projects while engaging the broader community.

DMS v0.5.x Boot Release
Q3 marked a significant milestone for NuNet with the community testing phase of the Device Management Service (DMS) v0.5.0-Boot, our open-source orchestration system designed to enable decentralized, peer-to-peer compute networks. This release represents the foundational step in our mission to build a decentralized ecosystem where distributed devices — including edge devices, IoT nodes, and traditional servers — can contribute computing power without the need for centralized control.
The v0.5.0-Boot release invites developers and community members to participate in testing, refining, and evolving this open-source platform. With features like decentralized orchestration, blockchain-based micropayments, and peer-to-peer security, DMS enables devices across the globe to manage and monetize compute tasks seamlessly. The “Boot” phase serves as the initial starting point for testing orchestration across dynamic edge, IoT, and DePIN networks, laying the groundwork for a fully decentralized cloud.
As we continue this journey, we invite the community to get involved through testing, feedback, and collaboration. The release candidate phase will run from September through December 2024, with a final release planned for later this year.
Collaborations
At NuNet, collaboration is key to driving innovation and pushing the boundaries of decentralized computing. We’re excited to update the community on two groundbreaking partnerships that align with our mission: The Posemesh and CUDOs. These collaborations reflect our commitment to creating a robust and scalable decentralized ecosystem that spans edge, IoT, and spatial computing, while supporting the future of artificial intelligence and decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN).
NuNet & The Posemesh: Revolutionizing Spatial Computing
Our partnership with The Posemesh takes decentralized computing to a new frontier — spatial computing. As a leader in decentralized machine perception networks, The Posemesh allows devices to securely share spatial data and computing power, forming a collaborative understanding of the physical world. With NuNet’s decentralized compute platform, we are optimizing the deployment and management of The Posemesh’s relay and domain servers.
This collaboration focuses on creating low-latency, secure, and efficient infrastructure to support real-time spatial computing — essential for applications like autonomous devices and IoT. NuNet ensures optimal hardware resource utilization, allowing compute providers to contribute to multiple decentralized projects simultaneously, boosting efficiency and compensation for contributors.
NuNet & CUDOS: Building a Versatile Decentralized Computing Ecosystem
Our collaboration with CUDOS, a leading decentralized cloud platform, within the ASI Alliance combines the strengths of both platforms to create a scalable, decentralized computing infrastructure. NuNet brings its peer-to-peer orchestration technology to the table, enabling smaller contributors to monetize their idle compute power, while CUDOS offers data-center-level computing capabilities, providing the backbone for high-demand AI computations.
Together, we are building a robust compute marketplace that bridges the gap between edge and core computing. NuNet’s decentralized orchestration allows devices from across the network to seamlessly contribute compute resources, while CUDOS enhances the system’s scalability, ensuring efficient, large-scale data processing. This synergy empowers the development of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) while democratizing access to computational resources.
Looking Ahead: A New Era of Decentralized Innovation
These partnerships are just the beginning. Together with CUDOS and The Posemesh, we are building a versatile, scalable, and resilient decentralized computing infrastructure. These collaborations highlight the strength of combining decentralized orchestration with large-scale, data-centric solutions, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in decentralized networks, AI, and spatial computing.
As we move forward, we remain committed to keeping the community informed and engaged. Stay tuned for more updates on our collaborative efforts to shape the future of decentralized computing.
NuNet’s Architectural Deep Dive
In Q3, NuNet released a comprehensive blog series that breaks down the key components of our decentralized computing architecture. This series aimed to provide the community with an in-depth understanding of the platform’s design and its innovative approach to open-ended computing. The series started with an introduction to Open-Ended Computing, highlighting its dynamic, evolving nature, which is essential for adapting to changing environments and technologies like decentralized networks and edge computing.
Following this, we explored NuNet’s Computational Model, diving into how the platform integrates both the Actor Model and Graph Computing. These powerful paradigms enable NuNet to achieve scalability, flexibility, and efficiency by decentralizing computation and managing complex, interconnected data. In the next post, we focused on the Actor Model, explaining how NuNet leverages independent actors to perform tasks in parallel, ensuring resilience and fault isolation. Finally, we wrapped up with a deep dive into Graph Computing, showcasing how NuNet uses graph structures for real-time data processing and dynamic adaptability across distributed nodes.
This series has been a crucial step in educating the community on how NuNet’s architecture is built to handle the complexities of modern decentralized computing, and it lays the groundwork for future developments in IoT, AI, and beyond. If you missed any of these posts, we highly recommend giving them a read to gain a full understanding of NuNet’s innovative approach to decentralized systems.
