People-powered
distributed infrastructure
Home Cloud is the orchestration control plane for a global mesh of solar-powered edge data centers — residential and small-site nodes running sun-backed storage and AI inference. Monitor fleet health. Score every node. Route workloads when solar surplus allows.
Control Plane Services
Power Telemetry
Real-time solar generation, battery state-of-charge, and grid draw per node. Data House Mode defers heavy compute to surplus or off-peak windows.
METRIC: solar_kw · battery_pct · grid_draw_w
Storage Fabric
Fleet-wide capacity tracking across ~50 TB edge nodes. Route archive, cache, and Web3 slice workloads to nodes with available terabytes.
METRIC: storage_used_tb / storage_cap_tb
AI Inference Grid
Monitor inference utilization and model identity. Auto-assign workloads to highest-scoring nodes meeting bandwidth class requirements.
METRIC: ai_util_pct · node_score
Solar-First Power
Every Data House is designed around solar-backed power — not grid-only data center electricity. Rooftop panels feed the Power Box, which charges batteries and runs the Data + AI modules when the sun is producing.
Home Cloud tracks solar_kw on every heartbeat. Nodes with higher solar input score better for workload placement. Heavy inference and storage jobs queue until the fleet reports solar_surplus or off_peak mode.
Stakeholders
WeAD Operations
Network Operations Center — fleet map, alerts, workload overrides, SLA monitoring via the NOC console.
Colocation Hosts
Residential and SMB operators running Data House hardware. Uptime, power profile, and earnings on the host portal.
Workload Tenants
Applications submitting storage, inference, cache, or gaming jobs through the REST API. Platform handles placement.
Edge Hardware Stack
Pilot configuration per Abstract 38 — three integrated modules per colocation site:
Power Box
Solar input, battery management, grid tie-in. Feeds real-time energy telemetry to the control plane.
Data Box
~50 TB edge storage array. Hosts cache, backup, archive, and distributed Web3 slices.
AI Box
Ryzen AI Halo class inference. Runs local models when solar surplus or off-peak power allows.
