So what is sim2h?
While sim1h is very similar to contemporary centralized front-end / back-end architecture in that it uses a database as the central component, sim2h does not rely on any centralized data persistence!

This difference is precisely what enables us to use sim2h right now for our first public Holochain test network. This is also an important prerequisite for Holo’s first test network.pic.twitter.com/PGVmUquUoTShow this thread -

That said, the fact that all messages are routed through a single point creates a single point of failure, which surely is not what you would want for a production ready p2p framework.Show this thread -

But it actually is beneficial for test networks, as already described in the post about sim1h.Show this thread -

That’s because, in all alpha test networks, and potentially in early betas, we definitely want to be able to log network messages as needed in order to gain a global view for debugging.pic.twitter.com/rVq7d7vO1dShow this thread -

So we believe the single point of failure is a reasonable trade-off (during alpha and early beta phases) for the ability to analyse the network.pic.twitter.com/69jSarZvsCShow this thread -

And should that central point actually experience issues, we can spawn new machines without even managing any application data, since that is stored at the node level.pic.twitter.com/6BfNWpujrLShow this thread
