System Overview

High-level architecture of the Anglium Network. The architecture consists of five main layers:

1. User Layer

Purpose: The entry point for end-users, businesses, and developers to interact with the Anglium network. Who operates here:

  • B2B Clients: marketing companies, analytics platforms, fintech, and SaaS services.

  • Developers: integrating the Anglium API into their products.

  • Individual Users: running their own nodes or using network services.

Key capabilities:

  • Access to geo-distributed IP via API/SaaS.

  • Use of DaaS (Data-as-a-Service) tools for open data collection.

  • Participation in DAO governance.

2. Access Layer

Purpose: Receives user requests and ensures secure connection to the network nodes. Components:

  • VPN Gateways — the main entry point that manages client connections.

  • API Gateways — handle commercial and technical requests.

  • Auth & Key Management — session authentication and key management system.

Functions:

  • Traffic distribution based on geo-location and load.

  • Encrypted connections (TLS 1.3, WireGuard).

  • Traffic obfuscation to bypass DPI and network filters.

3. Node Layer

Purpose: A decentralized network of nodes providing unique IP addresses and bandwidth. Node types:

  • Community Nodes — nodes run by users on PCs, smartphones, routers, or NAS devices.

  • Traffic Aggregators — powerful routers/servers managing groups of nodes.

  • Validator Nodes — perform data verification and blockchain transaction validation.

Key features:

  • Minimal setup requirements for Community Nodes (2-minute installation).

  • Geographically distributed and censorship-resistant.

  • Rewards based on uptime, speed, and geo uniqueness.

4. Control Layer

Purpose: The AI-powered automation and security layer. Components:

  • AI Load Balancer — distributes traffic between nodes, minimizing latency and overload.

  • AI Security Module — detects anomalies, blocks suspicious activity, and optimizes routing.

  • Reputation System — scores nodes and determines their traffic priority.

Benefits:

  • Real-time performance optimization.

  • Dynamic scaling under load.

  • Increased network and node security.

5. Ledger Layer

Purpose: Blockchain layer for tokenomics, DAO, and network metric accounting. Technology: Solana (high throughput, low fees). Functions:

  • Storing uptime and metric hashes (no PII).

  • DAO voting via $ANG.

  • Executing smart contracts for reward distribution.

  • Buyback & burn to support the token’s deflationary model.
