February Community Call: Questions from the TF Members

Hey you! Are you down for the next Threefold Community Call?

It’s the perfect time to ask questions you may have about the project.
You are invited to write questions. We will gather them in a list here for organizational purpose.

The Questions from the TF Members

  • Is it on the roadmap to be able to pay for Threefold deployments in BTC, instead of TFT?
  • Considering this GEP on Green Farming, what are the next steps that need to be taken to move forward? How can I or others that are interested in this topic be of any help?
  • Concerning the farmer bot, what is the procedure if you want to test it, we have applied in the forum, can we already prepare something, or when will we get instructions?
  • Does ThreeFold fall under the concepts of a Software Defined Data Center (SDDC) a.k.a. a Virtual Data Center (VDC)? Or does ThreeFold go even beyond these concepts?
  • How does the ThreeFold project positions itself against f.e. the OpenNebula project, which in the end is a middleware solution? What are the differences between the ThreeFold project and the OpenNebula project? Can both projects do something for each other? Can we learn from this project, how they handle certain problems (tech-wise)?
  • What is ThreeFold’s opinion about Solid? How does it fit or could it be implemented in the Threefold ecosystem?
  • Imagine a server with a HDD of 16TB in the QSFS goes offline, how long doest it take to rebuild this 16TB on another or multiple other servers? How is it done?
  • If I would do a (bandwidth) DDOS attack on a server, could it impact other people using the same infrastructure?
  • How does ThreeFold use ReedSolom ECC differently from systems like Google’s Colossus?
  • What is meant by 20x less overhead compared to classic systems? Which classic systems exactly?
  • I have read that: Threefold DMCC (Dubai) is planning to acquire up to 300million TFT." Can you provide more info on this please?

Got a question? Post a reply with your questions and we will cover them in the next call.
Thanks!

My question for the February community call:

I created this GEP for Super Green Farming with 100% Renewable Energy about 6 months ago and it passed the voting 53% to 47%.

A lot of changes have been made to the grid in the meantime. What are the next steps that need to be taken to move forward on this? How can I or others that are interested in this topic be of any help?

Does ThreeFold fall under the concepts of a Software Defined Data Center (SDDC) a.k.a. a Virtual Data Center (VDC)? Or does ThreeFold go even beyond these concepts?

How does the ThreeFold project positions itself against f.e. the OpenNebula project, which in the end is a middleware solution (we had an interesting meeting with one of the members at a FOSDEM event in Brussels). What are the differences between the ThreeFold project and the OpenNebula project? Can both projects do something for each other? Can we learn from this project, how they handle certain problems (tech-wise)? One of the members told us for example that they were looking for edge resources from bare-metal cloud providers…

(Note: they work together with AWS, Google Cloud, IBM Cloud, on-prem edge and public edge cloud providers)

There was actually a cooperation announced last summer. There was also a podcast episode on spotify where this cooperation was talked about.

Interesting! I didn’t know about that. Could you perhaps share the link to those resources? Would love to dive into it

Do we know the reason for the big price movement?
