Real-time Flux Metrics Data Integrated into the Decentralized Streamr Hub

PRESS RELEASE
Published July 19, 2023

Zug, Switzerland--(Newsfile Corp. - July 19, 2023) - Streamr, the decentralized network for real-time data, and Flux, a leading provider of Web3 cloud infrastructure, are pleased to announce a new integration between their platforms to champion open data in Web3. The Streamr Hub now incorporates data streams from the Flux Web3 Cloud API, offering developers, data analysts, and the community a real-time view into the Flux Network.

This integration enables users to access a wealth of new live data directly from the Flux Cloud, providing a fresh perspective on its usage. Key metrics include the number of application instances, total deployments, and unique applications, and performance metrics such as CPU resource consumption. This provides insights into how the Flux Cloud is being used, and can allow developers to make informed decisions, in real-time, about deployment that could improve their applications' performance.

According to Daniel Keller, co-founder of Flux, "This integration marks an important step forward in our mission to provide a transparent infrastructure for Web3 applications. By bringing together the power of Streamr's real-time data network with Flux's Web3 cloud infrastructure, we are enabling developers and users to access valuable data insights and make informed decisions in real-time."

The new data stream also shines a light on the Flux network's infrastructure by revealing details such as the total number of FluxNodes and their distribution across different tiers. This transparency allows users to accurately assess the health of the network and its potential for growth.

Financial metrics from the Flux network, such as the circulating and locked-up token supply, are also integrated into The Hub. The supply of locked-up or 'staked' tokens can provide insight into the network's stability, as these tokens represent a long-term commitment from their holders.

Further data points now available through this integration include the number of Streamr and Titan nodes run on the Flux Cloud. This allows Streamr and Titan users to understand the live distribution of nodes for their respective networks that are hosted through the Flux Cloud.

Since the launch of Streamr Node on the Flux Marketplace in February 2023, there have been over 400 unique deployments currently in operation. This enhances the ability to easily supply nodes to meet the scalability demands of the Streamr Network. The new metrics data gives further visibility to these deployments, enhancing transparency and decentralization. To host a user's Streamr broker node on the Flux Web3 Cloud, follow this simple guide.

"As the developer who built the Flux streams, it's incredibly gratifying to see how this integration will empower the Web3 community with real-time data and insights," commented Streamr Developer Relations Engineer Nico Burkart.

In summary, the integration between Streamr and Flux enables a new level of transparency in Web3, giving users a truly decentralized window into their network's operations.

Streamr welcomes other protocols and projects to join the open data movement by collaborating to add unique and valuable metrics and other real-time streams to The Hub.

About Streamr

Streamr is building the real-time data protocol of the decentralized web. This includes a scalable, low-latency and secure P2P Network for data delivery and exchange. As part of the vision, Streamr is building The Streamr Hub, a decentralized chat application, and other dApps. The project was started by real-time data veterans with backgrounds in algorithmic trading and finance markets. To learn more, visit streamr.network.

About Flux

The Flux Web3 Cloud is a suite of decentralized computing services and blockchain-as-a-service solutions which offer an interoperable, decentralized, AWS-like development environment. Flux uses a native POW (Proof-of-Work) coin to power this ecosystem, supplying incentive for hardware hosters, governance on-chain, and bad actor mitigation via staking requirements for running hardware. The Flux operating system runs on top of Linux to provide the network with verified and benchmarked high-availability compute power and uses the blockchain to ensure transparency in governance operations. FluxNode operators can choose from three tiers of hardware requirements to stand up after providing the necessary Flux capital soft-locked in their wallet. This allows anyone to be rewarded for supplying hardware to the network, from anywhere in the world. To learn more, visit runonflux.io.
