Openmesh Overview

Openmesh is building a fully decentralized cloud, data, and oracle network that eliminates the need for middlemen and centralized servers. By providing decentralized, permissionless cloud infrastructure, Openmesh ensures that blockchain nodes, Web3, and even Web2 applications can operate seamlessly without the threat of regulatory overreach or centralized control. With Openmesh, trust is embedded in the system itself, validated by a decentralized network of independent, anonymous validators, ensuring immutability and security by design.

Not your cloud, not your data

Current Web3 Infrastructure Challenge

Despite Web3's decentralization ethos, approximately 80% of Web3 services (dApps, frontends, databases, validator nodes) rely on centralized cloud platforms. This centralization introduces vulnerabilities and contradicts Web3 principles.

Openmesh Architecture

Openmesh leverages Xnode technology to create a truly decentralized cloud infrastructure:

1. Distributed Xnodes: Replace centralized data centers with a network of distributed nodes.

2. XnodeOS: Custom operating system based on NixOS, ensuring reproducible and verifiable system states.

3. Wallet-Based Authentication: Ethereum wallet integration for enhanced security and user sovereignty.

4. Open-Source Codebase: Enables community auditing and continuous improvement.

5. Xnode Studio: Web-based interface for deployment and management of decentralized applications.

Technical Features

• Permissionless Access: No KYC required, accessible via crypto wallet

• Cost Efficiency: Up to 80% reduction in costs compared to traditional cloud services

• Native Blockchain Integration: Built-in interoperability with Web3 technologies

• One-Click Deployment: Simplified deployment of complex applications

• Infrastructure Ownership: Users can own pieces of the infrastructure through the Xnode One NFT program

Chainlink Integration

Openmesh integrates Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) and Data Feeds, enabling:

• Cross-chain communication

• Trustless token transfers

• Access to off-chain data

• Up to 90% true decentralization in applications

This integration facilitates the development of cross-chain DeFi protocols, decentralized data marketplaces, and blockchain-based IoT solutions.
