Component Overview

​
Core Components

  1. Atoma Service
    • Main entry point for client requests
    • Handles API endpoints for inference, embeddings, and image generation
    • Manages request routing and response handling
    • Integrates with the inference services
  2. Inference Services
    • Containerized services that perform the actual AI inference
    • See more in the Inference Services section
  3. Authentication Middleware
    • Verifies client signatures using Sui wallet
    • Manages cryptographic operations
    • Handles access control and request validation
    • Integrates with confidential compute service
  4. State Manager
    • Maintains node state and synchronization
    • Manages database operations
    • Handles task queuing and execution
    • Tracks compute units and settlements
  5. Sui Event Subscriber
    • Listens to blockchain events
    • Processes on-chain state changes
    • Manages node registration and task assignments
    • Handles settlement verification
  6. Confidential Compute Service
    • Provides secure enclave operations
    • Manages encryption/decryption of sensitive data
    • Ensures privacy guarantees for compute tasks
    • Handles attestation proofs
  7. Atoma Daemon
    • Manages node operations and maintenance
    • Handles node registration and subscriptions
    • Processes stack settlements
    • Manages node rewards and claims
