It is becoming clearer with time, technology is suffering from the internet’s age. New devices and concepts are continually stressing the current architecture.

To its credit, ZettaScale while developing within the internet constraints, they have been able to create a distributed architecture with the goal of being environmentally friendly. With the Zenoh protocol, they have effectively made the edge a location for local data storage. In the process, they have provided for:

Data storage reduction

Energy savings

Angelo Corsaro, CEO/CTO of ZettaScale explains to Don Witt of the Channel Daily News, a TR publication, how they mathematically use time and volume of data to establish their architecture on the fly. Instead of connecting directly to the centrally located database, they provide the results locally creating a Distributed Query Network which reduces energy consumption and latency. While the results may not be significant initially, over time the affects are very significant.

The Cloud-to-Device Continuum Platform: A Cloud-to-Device PaaS that can run on any combination of public and private infrastructure spanning from a datacenter to a micro-controller. It supports completely decentralized communication, geo-distributed storages and queries, as well as geo-distributed computations.

Zenoh supports communication over any topology. You can leverage peer-to-peer when possible, routed communication to scale across the Internet, and client broker to integrate extremely constrained devices.
