# Project Mycelium Documentation
|
||
|
||
Welcome to the official documentation for **Project Mycelium**.
|
||
|
||
This site is organized around the core building blocks of the Mycelium stack:
|
||
|
||
- **Network** – The Mycelium IPv6 overlay network for secure, encrypted connectivity.
|
||
- **Cloud** – Mycelium Cloud for Kubernetes clusters on decentralized infrastructure.
|
||
- **VDC** – Virtual Data Centers for full cloud environments you control.
|
||
- **AI Agent Framework** – Mycelium Agents (coming 2026) for sovereign, distributed AI.
|
||
- **Hosters** – Individuals and organizations who contribute capacity to the grid.
|
||
|
||
Use the top navigation to jump directly to any of these areas.
|
||
|
||
## Who This Documentation Is For
|
||
|
||
- **Developers** who want to build on the Mycelium Network and Mycelium Cloud.
|
||
- **Organizations** who need sovereign cloud, data residency, and compliance.
|
||
- **Hosters** (formerly called "farmers" in legacy grid docs) who want to run nodes and earn rewards.
|
||
|
||
## High-Level Architecture
|
||
|
||
At a high level, Project Mycelium combines:
|
||
|
||
1. **Mycelium Network**
|
||
A cryptographic IPv6 overlay that connects devices, nodes, and clusters in a secure peer-to-peer mesh.
|
||
|
||
2. **Mycelium Cloud**
|
||
A platform to deploy Kubernetes clusters on Mycelium's decentralized infrastructure, using Mycelium Network for connectivity.
|
||
|
||
3. **Virtual Data Centers (VDCs)**
|
||
Composable environments built on top of Mycelium Cloud for applications, databases, internal services, and full personal/organizational clouds.
|
||
|
||
4. **AI Agent Framework**
|
||
A forthcoming framework that lets you run private, distributed AI agents inside environments you control.
|
||
|
||
5. **Hosters**
|
||
Node operators who provide compute, storage, and network capacity to the ecosystem and earn rewards for doing so.
|
||
|
||
Each section of this documentation dives into one of these layers.
|
||
|
||
## Where to Start
|
||
|
||
- If you want **secure networking between devices and clusters**:
|
||
- Start with **[Network](/network)**.
|
||
|
||
- If you want to **deploy Kubernetes clusters on decentralized infrastructure**:
|
||
- Start with **[Cloud](/cloud)**.
|
||
|
||
- If you are a **hoster / farmer** interested in running nodes and earning SPORE:
|
||
- Start with **[Hosters](/hosters)**.
|
||
|
||
- If you want to understand how **Virtual Data Centers** and the **AI Agent Framework** fit in:
|
||
- Read the overviews for **[VDC](/vdc)** and **[AI Agent Framework](/ai-agent-framework)**.
