OptDyn Announces Subutai Blockchain Router v2.0 Enters Production
The Subutai Blockchain Router v2.0 is a broadband Cloud router and open hardware IoT gateway. As a Subutai appliance, the router comes preinstalled with Subutai’s PeerOS tuned and hardware accelerated. As with the standalone Subutai PeerOS software, the Blockchain Router can register computers with the Subutai Bazaar to allow users to share, and rent their idle compute resources.
“The future of Cloud and IoT/fog computing must adapt to connect people, devices, and their networks together optimally, securely, and dynamically,” said Jon “maddog” Hall, CEO of OptDyn. “We are proud to deliver on that promise by realizing our vision for the Subutai Blockchain Router, which has been four years in the making.”
Both the industrial and residential editions of the Subutai Blockchain Router offer advanced P2P cloud router and IoT gateway functions using the world’s most powerful SoC (system-on-chip), the Xilinx® Zynq UltraScale+™ MPSoC, packed with four 64-bit cores with up to 16GB of DDR4 RAM capacity.
The Blockchain Router’s residential configuration serves as a power-efficient, “green” plug-and-play cryptocurrency mining device and wallet that allows users to easily enter the cryptocurrency economy. Using just 18-watts, the Subutai Blockchain Router is eco-friendly and cost-effective —a critically important consideration in today’s energy-aware environment.
