How to Use

The current grid is usable for people who have some technical background and know how to use cloud technologies.

We are working on the generation 4 of the ThreeFold Grid, which will have the following additional features:

Service Level Management
- As a user of the Internet capacity you get a guarantee from the farmers
Farming Pools
- Pools of capacity with defined service level and pricing
Dynamic Pricing
- Each farmer/farming pool can define their own pricing in line to service levels and performance.
Development platform for Web4
- This will be an agent-centric paradigm of the future.

Any AI, Web2 and Web3 workloads, as well as any blockchain app, can be deployed on the grid today.

Developers, as well as system administrators, can use the ThreeFold Grid.

Today, system administrators already have access to a large variety of tools to get started today. Read more below.

On 12-12-2024, we will announce what developers can build on top of the ThreeFold Grid.

A true Web4 system must be flexible, enabling anyone, anywhere, to build on top of it.

ThreeFold has made the ThreeFold Grid compatible with industry standards used today in the cloud landscape.

You can deploy:

Virtual Machines
Containers
- Compatible with Docker
Kubernetes Clusters
- Compatible with the world
- With additional network capabilities
Multiple Network Technologies
- To connect the virtual machines & containers
AI Workloads
- Use GPU from the containers or virtual machines
Web Gateways
- Connect your running workload to the Internet
Web3 workloads
- Anything which can run on Linux today can run on top of the ThreeFold Grid
  - e.g. blockchain validators, etc.

If you know how to write scripts, then you can build wonderful automated solutions on top of the grid.

All required information can be found in our ThreeFold V3 Manual.
