Explore the Edge

The first public release of the explorer for the Edge network is available now. You can see it here: https://explorer.edge.network/

(And yes, the explorer is running in the network!)

This is very much an MVP (minimum viable product), plotting device locations and exposing capacity data for the network as a whole. Multiple further iterations are planned, which will bring functionality such as peer linking and recognition within the map and the ability to drill in to node level data.

Here’s a full list of planned functionality:

• Connectivity between peers plotted on the map
• The ability to explore node details through the map
• The ability to switch between the testnet and mainnet
• Insight in to network load
• A breakdown of network size by node type
• The amount of compute units, Edge storage and Edge cache available
• A breakdown of network revenues, including contributions to the DADI Foundation, staking levels and token value
• Insight in to network bandwidth and traffic
• A breakdown of memory use across the network
• Insight in to TCP connections
• The charting of devices online
• A searchable breakout of individuals nodes
• Individual node pages provide insight in to node uptime
• A measure of node reputation
• Insight in to node load
• Details as to the capacity of individual nodes
• Insight in to an individual nodes platform and the versions of the network software being run
• Earnings for individual nodes and their staking status and level
• Insight in to node-level traffic

And here’s a screenshot of a node level page for context:
