Fundamentals

The foundational concepts underlying Cloudillo’s architecture. These documents explain the core principles, system design patterns, identity mechanisms, and security considerations that enable Cloudillo’s federated, decentralized design.

Core Topics

• System Architecture - Technical overview of the core patterns and components
• Identity System - DNS-based identity and profile key management
• Content-Addressing & Merkle Trees - Cryptographic hashing and proof of authenticity
• Network & Security - Security architecture and inter-instance communication

These fundamentals form the basis for understanding Cloudillo’s data storage, action systems, and federation mechanisms.
