Hello everyone 👋
It's been a jam packed week at Edge, even with the summer recess in full swing. There's a lot to update you on this week.
First up, https://thedecentralizedweb.com/ has been updated with Edge branding.
As it's running on the updated mainnet you can now see both the Gateway and the Host ID of the nodes that handled the delivery in the header request.
For me this looks like this:
Edge-Gateway => 370d51a7-4a48-4b6c-b52f-26d813e2f086
Edge-Host => caf4e202-350b-4d28-ad0e-ec57c5e2fe85We will be adding the device ID to this in the near future, and further down the line the Stargate ID as well.
The Stargate ID requires the internal secure DNS consensus check to be fully operational. We'll be writing more about this in due course, but it's a very powerful mechanism that super charges security in the network by adding the consensus mechanism to all DNS requests.
You're going to love it.
A single document collection feature was added to Publish, giving support for individual page control in the interface.
The team made a start on document versioning interfaces within Publish. Versioning has been part of the platform for years, but until now there hasn't be a front end to it.
They also squashed a few bugs, fixing an issue with Reference selection in Publish and fixing an issue with document versioning + filestore in API.
User management interfaces were added to the SaaS proposition for what were our web services, and specifications were created for 1. API key management, 2. the integration of network content distribution image cropping, and 3. the integration of network content distribution with API.
Workshops with the PPA are shaping up nicely, with the first in plan for September.
We've established a private sector team which is gearing up for direct engagement in the UK.
Two pieces of new business have arrived through one of our advisors, with meetings to follow in early September.
