Phase 6: Global Federation & Cross-Mesh Interoperability
Four pillars implemented to transition MeshInfer from a multi-tenant global ecosystem into a federated, sovereign, cross-mesh compute network with global compute liquidity. All Phase 6 systems remain isolated from the DOSFI Closed Core.
Live system state
The four pillars
FederationRegistry entity with mesh identity, public keys, capabilities, and handshake status. Three-step handshake protocol (register โ verify โ sync). Federated routing scores all active meshes by capability, region, cost, and routing weight. FederationDashboard shows connected meshes, health, and routing distribution.
SovereignRegion entity with compliance rules, data residency constraints, and routing constraints. Region-scoped routing policies enforce residency + compliance. SovereignGovernanceDashboard shows rule enforcement, violations, and compliance audits per governing authority (GDPR, HIPAA, PDPA).
CrossMeshListing entity with node capacity, app access, and inference credits listings. Purchase flow via buyCrossMesh (creates EconomyEvent, decrements quantity). Settlement automation via settleCrossMeshPayment (batches unsettled events, creates PayoutRequest records). CrossMeshMarketplace page shows listings from all federated meshes.
LiquidityPool entity with balance, inflows, outflows, supply, demand, and dynamic pricing. Scheduled aggregation for global compute liquidity metrics. LiquidityDashboard shows supply/demand, pricing curves, and regional liquidity. Dynamic pricing engine adjusts cost based on demand, region, and federation load.
Federation architecture
FederationRegistry entity
Handshake protocol
| register | Submit mesh identity + public key + capabilities โ pending |
| verify | Validate public key (โฅ32 chars) โ verified |
| sync | Update capabilities, cost, routing weight โ active |
| route | Score all active meshes by region, cost, weight, health โ select best |
Sovereign region governance
Compliance authorities
Enforcement mechanism
| Data residency | storage_regions + processing_regions constrain mesh selection |
| Cross-border | cross_border_allowed=false blocks non-local meshes |
| PHI local-only | phi_local_only=true restricts to same-region meshes |
| Allowed meshes | routing_constraints.allowed_meshes whitelist |
| Blocked regions | routing_constraints.blocked_regions blacklist |
| Max latency | routing_constraints.max_latency_ms filter |
Cross-mesh marketplace
Listing types
Purchase & settlement flow
| buyCrossMesh | Creates EconomyEvent, decrements listing quantity, returns purchase confirmation |
| settleCrossMeshPayment | Batches unsettled cross-mesh events, creates PayoutRequest records, marks settled |
| Audit trail | All settlement batches logged to AuditLog |
| SLA tracking | Each listing has sla_tier and sla_uptime_pct |
Global compute liquidity layer
LiquidityPool entity
Dynamic pricing engine
| demand_multiplier | utilization >80% โ 1.25x, >90% โ 1.5x, <30% โ 0.85x, <20% โ 0.75x |
| region_multiplier | supply/demand ratio >2 โ 1.3x, >1 โ 1.15x, <0.3 โ 0.9x |
| fed_multiplier | constrained โ 1.2x, depleted โ 1.5x, surplus โ 0.8x |
| Final price | base_price ร demand_mult ร region_mult ร fed_mult |
| Status update | depleted (>95%), constrained (>80%), surplus (<20%), liquid (balance>0 & <50%), balanced |
Closed Core isolation โ confirmation
Phase 6 functions: federationHandshake, routeInferenceAcrossMeshes, buyCrossMesh, settleCrossMeshPayment, aggregateLiquidityMetrics, dynamicPricingEngine.
Never touched: Node, NodePool, Task, RoutingLog, TelemetryEvent, ShardDirectory, VitalLedger, or any inference/routing/coordinator/privacy entity. The DOSFI Closed Core is completely isolated.
