Somebody’s RAM
is doing nothing.

Rent it by the hour for $0.009298 a gibibyte — about a third of the cheapest managed cache, with the Redis client you already have.

Rent memory Run a node

Six decisions, and the reason for each.

A market for other people’s memory only works if both sides can check it. These are the choices that make that possible.

Size × time, not fill

An hour of a gibibyte costs the same whether you put one key in it or fill it. Nothing has to measure what is inside, so nothing proxies through us.

Your client, unchanged

A plain Dragonfly instance speaking the Redis protocol. ioredis, redis-py, go-redis, redis-cli — all of them, untouched.

Stake follows what is rented

Collateral is charged on memory actually taken, not memory advertised. Idle capacity costs an operator nothing, which is what lets a small machine join.

Checked every minute

Does it answer, is the ceiling what was bought, is it really holding the bytes. Minutes that fail are billed to nobody.

Priced off the cheapest, daily

The index is the cheapest managed cache less a discount, read from the vendors’ own feeds — not an average, which would be dearer than simply buying from the cheapest.

No key on the server

Everything needing a signature happens in your browser. What reaches the machine is a string good for claiming one node once.

A server you already pay for, earning.

Most machines carry memory nobody is using. Handing it over is one command, and the network checks every day that the memory is really there.

One container

Docker is the whole runtime. Paste one line onto the server and the node is on air inside fifteen seconds.

No wallet on it

The launch line carries a token good for claiming one node once. A stolen server costs you a node, not a wallet.

Declare, then change it

Say what the machine can spare. Raise or lower it later, as long as it stays above what is currently rented.

Ninety per cent is yours

It accumulates in the contract as you serve. Claim it whenever — there is no schedule and nothing expires.

Connecting

Your client does not change.

What comes back is an ordinary Redis URL to a Dragonfly instance. No library of ours goes near your code, and nothing proxies through us — you talk to the machine.

redis://:8f2c…@91.228.155.183:7401

import Redis from 'ioredis';

const cache = new Redis(process.env.DRAMNET_URL);
await cache.set('session:42', payload, 'EX', 900);

It is a cache and nothing more. Nothing is written to disk, there are no snapshots, and a node that fails takes what was in it — the memory is gone and the rental is closed. That is the trade for a third of the price: put in it only what you can rebuild.

A gibibyte, an hour, $0.009298.

Take memory from somebody with spare, or hand over the memory sitting idle on a server you already pay for. The same index prices both.
