CAD036: Lattice Node

CAD

A lightweight non-consensus server that just replicates CRDT lattice data over the network — no CPoS, no staking, minimal resources. The right tier for CDNs, collaborative apps and hybrid dApps that need lattice sync without the cost of running a full Convex peer.

CAD024: Data Lattice Convex Architecture Documents Specifies the off-chain CRDT substrate — content-addressed, lazily loaded, self-healing, garbage-collectable, structurally shared and JSON-superset typed. This is where Convex solves what IPFS handles clumsily: rich types, efficient deltas, and merges that just work instead of manual pinning and reconciliation.
CAD028: Data Lattice File System Convex Architecture Documents A POSIX-compatible self-sovereign file system on the lattice — CRDT merge means editing the same file on two offline devices reconciles automatically, with Merkle verification and peer-to-peer sync. Dropbox/iCloud with the provider removed and the data still yours.
CAD037: KV Database Convex Architecture Documents A Redis-style per-owner signed KV store on the lattice — multi-writer, offline-first, convergent without leader election because merge is mathematical, not negotiated. Gives hybrid dApps the shared mutable state that a global blockchain cannot afford to host.
CAD002: CVM Values Convex Architecture Documents Mandates that every value on the network is a pure immutable cell in a Merkle DAG — so hashes are stable identities, snapshots are O(1), and untrusted smart contracts can be handed references without defensive copying. This is the data-model prerequisite for everything the lattice does that a mutable-heap blockchain like Ethereum cannot.
CAD003: Encoding Format Convex Architecture Documents Defines the one canonical byte encoding every cell collapses to, so any value hashes to exactly one global ID and peers can deduplicate, stream and merge state without coordination. This is the physics of the lattice — JSON has no canonical form, Protobuf needs schemas, ASN.1 can't bound buffer size; CAD3 solves all three at once.
CAD015: Peer Communications Convex Architecture Documents Defines an asynchronous, transport-agnostic message format where every payload is a CAD3 cell and branches can be omitted for deltas — so a huge state can be transmitted as a tiny diff when the receiver already holds the rest. Gossip and lattice sync ride the same efficient wire.
