W3bstream

Overview

W3bStream is a general framework for connecting data generated by devices and machines in the physical world to the blockchain world. In a nutshell, W3bStream uses the IoTeX blockchain to orchestrate a decentralized network of gateways (i.e., W3bStream nodes) that streams [encrypted] data from IoT devices and machines and generates proofs of real-world facts to different blockchains.

Arch

Run with prebuilt docker

export WS_WORKING_DIR=$PWD/build_image
docker-compose -p w3bstream -f ./docker-compose.yaml up -d

WS_WORKING_DIR is the working directory for w3bstream node.
