The Sovereign Beacon is the "Hello, World" of the AuraCore ecosystem. It demonstrates a single Managed Application Service (MAS) running with full sovereignty on the AuraGrid distributed compute engine.
Unlike traditional cloud containers (Docker/K8s) that are "pushed" to a central orchestrator, AuraCore MAS applications are sovereign.
- Autonomous Lifecycle: The Beacon manages its own state and heartbeat, communicating directly with the local ProxyWorker.
- Low-Overhead IPC: Demonstrates the high-performance local IPC bridge, allowing Python applications to interact with the C# grid core with near-zero latency.
- Zero-Trust by Default: The application runs in a restricted environment where every interaction with the outside world is governed by local grid policy.
- MAS Lifecycle API: Standardized startup, heartbeat, and shutdown hooks.
- Local IPC Bridge: Interaction with
/cell/configand/cell/membershipwithout external networking. - Python SDK Integration: Demonstrates the ease of porting existing logic into a managed grid service.
This app proves the baseline stability of the AuraGrid runtime. It shows how quickly a company can wrap existing logic into a MAS and have it instantly benefit from AuraGrid's distributed observability and lifecycle management.
