Overview: DockHive Container Deployment Documentation

DockHive is a cutting-edge platform revolutionizing cloud infrastructure for both Web2 and Web3 applications. Leveraging the power of containerization, DockHive offers a decentralized cloud infrastructure where applications are encapsulated within containers for efficient deployment and management.

Key Features:

1. Decentralized Infrastructure: DockHive operates on a decentralized network where containers are distributed across various nodes. This ensures resilience, fault tolerance, and improved performance.

2. Containerization: Applications on DockHive are encapsulated within containers, providing isolation, portability, and scalability. Each container contains all the necessary dependencies and configurations, simplifying deployment and maintenance.

3. SeacureWeave Consensus: DockHive utilizes SeacureWeave consensus to secure and maintain the distributed containers on the network. SeacureWeave ensures integrity and reliability by employing innovative cryptographic techniques. For a detailed understanding of SeacureWeave, refer to the article here.

4. Dynamic Container Allocation: Containers are dynamically allocated to different nodes based on proposals submitted by users. Proposals outline the resource requirements and deployment specifications of the containers. DockHive's decentralized infrastructure then assigns containers to nodes that can fulfill the proposed requirements.

Documentation Purpose:

This documentation serves as a comprehensive guide for deploying and scaling containers on the DockHive platform. It provides detailed instructions on creating Hive files, which contain specifications for container deployment, scaling configurations, and geographical distribution.

Contents:

1. Hive Proposal for Container Deployment and Scaling: This section outlines the structure and content of Hive proposals, which define the deployment specifications for containers on DockHive.

2. Containers Section: Details the properties and configurations of individual containers within a Hive file, including resource requirements, Dockerfile locations, and scaling options.

3. Scaling Section: Explains parameters for auto-scaling containers on DockHive, including options for setting maximum scaling limits.

4. Geographical Scaling Section: Describes how geographical scaling enables the distribution of container instances across different regions, ensuring data availability and redundancy.

Conclusion:

DockHive's container deployment documentation provides users with the necessary knowledge to efficiently deploy and manage containers on the decentralized infrastructure. By leveraging containerization and SeacureWeave consensus, DockHive offers a robust and secure platform for deploying applications on the cloud infrastructure. Important Note: Proposal.hive files are only supported on the DockHive mainnet.
