NetcoreNetwork today announces Causeway, a connectivity ecosystem purpose-built for peer-to-peer device connectivity and management, allowing devices to find, authenticate and securely communicate without any intermediaries.
NetcoreNetwork’s underlying technology, including a decentralized identity provision mechanism and decentralized peer lookup and authentication capabilities, creates the foundation for Causeway, which eliminates third-party dependencies.
The company is announcing access to its distributed infrastructure through Causeway.
“Third-party intermediaries are harvesting and selling data, yet much of that data doesn’t really need to pass through these companies,” said Bella Raftis, co-founder of NetcoreNetwork. “At the same time, modern devices are increasingly capable, meaning much of that data could travel directly from one device to another. With Causeway, now it can, providing people with greater control over their data, while making better use of the compute, storage and connectivity that is currently available on the devices that people already own.”
Causeway delivers value across a range of real-world use cases, including:
- Building peer-to-peer apps: From file sharing to messaging to remote access to video streaming applications, Causeway handles identity, authentication and connection management, freeing developers to focus on designing and refining their apps.
- Connecting edge devices: Use of edge devices in industrial and IoT environments is exploding. Causeway provides a simple, secure way for these devices to connect.
- Enabling remote access: Causeway is also the ideal solution for homelabbers or anyone self-hosting services who needs to access their devices securely from anywhere.
- Sharing resources: NetcoreNetwork customers can use Causeway to share storage and compute across devices as if they were part of the same local environment.
Competing solutions solve one specific peer-to-peer use case, such as creating a private network, or transfer only one kind of data. Causeway is different, providing greater user control and flexibility. It opens the connectivity layer, giving developers a reusable way for devices to find one another, authenticate and connect directly, with decentralized relays as a fallback. And Causeway supports everything from VPNs and messaging to robotics, IoT and real-time video, and without putting coordination and fallback connectivity in the hands of a single operator.
“There are tons of applications today that wouldn’t even need a backend if reliable, secure infrastructure for traffic agnostic P2P connectivity existed,” said Greg Tseng, the architect and co-founder of NetcoreNetwork. “So that infrastructure is what we built. Causeway empowers developers to do away with dependency on the hyperscalers, removing lots of unnecessary architectural complexity in apps and simultaneously eliminating a centralized single point of failure. And that’s not even mentioning the cost, scalability and privacy benefits.”
