DataCap allocation plan

In which geographies (countries, regions) do you plan on making storage deals?

Asia (excluding Greater China) - Singapore

How will you be distributing your data to storage providers? Is there an offline data transfer process?

We will distribute the data to storage on our established data center in Singapore. f0158613 is one of our node which started last year. for the offline data transfer process at current moment is not essential for our needs.

How do you plan on choosing the storage providers with whom you will be making deals? This should include a plan to ensure the data is retrievable in the future both by you and others.

We plan to use our data center which was built in Singapore for the support of our affiliate companies' and partners' needs.
however, for the onboarding of customers. we are following the internal process as follows:
1. Every DataCap applicant must hand in applications to us. They can apply online (small DataCap) and offline in written form.
2. After the initial review, we will carry out a qualification pre-review. The applicant must be maturely developed business organisations or NPOs with actual data storage demand.
3. The applicant that fails the pre-review will be required to provide extra information or will be refused directly.
4. For applicants that pass the pre-review, we will carry out due diligence investigation to learn the applicant's legality, operation status, and other related stats. 
5. According to the result of the due diligence investigation, we will rate the business organization based on the factors and standards mentioned above. (NPOs excluded).
6. Last, we will refuse or approve the application in written form. If approved, we will allocate the DataCap based on actual conditions. 

How will you be distributing deals across storage providers?

we are distributing the Deals among the machines in our Singapore data center.
1. All allocation decisions will be conducted on GitHub publicly and all communications and problems can be traced via the memory library.
2. The application materials and allocation records of each applicant will be saved graphicly and will be uploaded on the Filecoin network for permanent saving. 

Do you have the resources/funding to start making deals as soon as you receive DataCap? What support from the community would help you onboard onto Filecoin?

Yes, we do have sufficient resources and funding for us to kick start deals as soon as we receive the DataCap. meanwhile we have enough community base and support for us to do the onboarding.

@galen-mcandrew Dear Galen, may I kindly follow up on the verifying process of our application. thanks

Sunnyiscoming commented 2 years ago

@ElonMNC Hi, This application seems to be duplicates of https://github.com/filecoin-project/filecoin-plus-large-datasets/issues/351, right?

ElonMNC commented 2 years ago

@ElonMNC Hi, This application seems to be duplicates of #351, right?

yes, #351 was not fully completed. #355 is more furnished. may I know shall we continue here? or just continue with #351 is fine

Sunnyiscoming commented 2 years ago

@ElonMNC You can close #351, and we continue #355.

One more question. Large datasets focus on decentralization for storage providers. Is there more information to provide about data storage services with other storage providers?

ElonMNC commented 2 years ago

@Sunnyiscoming yes, we are currently use multi cloud storage provider, like AWS, AliCloud and Google Cloud. this the our sample data in the link.https://mainnetcapitalcom-my.sharepoint.com/:f:/g/personal/elon_mainnetcapital_com/EuoXOXp_SpRKlnq-7dVHXUMBHnESiCIGVlg2ekVX3TDg-A?e=YBDauF

ElonMNC commented 2 years ago

hi @Sunnyiscoming may I kindly follow up the process and looking forward to get the approval

Sunnyiscoming commented 2 years ago

@ElonMNC It refer to Filecoin storage provides, not other cloud providers.

Is there more information to provide about data storage services with other storage providers?

Sunnyiscoming commented 2 years ago

Any Filecoin storage provides can be provided?

ElonMNC commented 2 years ago

@Sunnyiscoming yes, we are writing up the details will send over shortly

dkkapur commented 2 years ago

we are distributing the Deals among the machines in our Singapore data center.

Just wanted to flag that this is actually not in like with the geo and SP distribution expectations for LDN applications. @ElonMNC you'll need to find at least 3 other SP organizations to work with, in different datacenters, to ensure that deals are being distributed in a way that works for your needs long term.
