Introducing the Instruxi Data Mesh

The Instruxi Data Mesh (IDM) is a powerful data management and access control platform designed to streamline user account management and enable scalable data sharing in both Web2 and Web3 applications. By decoupling authentication and authorization from core application logic, IDM solves one of the most pressing challenges in software development: securing user account operations and orchestrating data, AI agents and services. Built on a Web3 foundation, IDM’s seamless compatibility with both traditional and decentralized technologies makes it an ideal choice for organizations looking to accelerate development, enhance data security, and reduce time to market.


IDM is organized into three modules or concepts:

  1. Mesh Enforcer
    Access Control & Governance – This module is the foundation of the IDM core API offering. It serves as the entry point to a customer's application (authentication) and provides the rules engine for the application's user sessions (authorization). It integrates Decentralized Digital IDs with Open Policy Agent (OPA) for dynamic policy enforcement, providing authentication via JWTs, API keys, and Web3 wallets, and supporting role-based access control with token gating for secure access. For administrators, this module offers an interface for managing and organizing account profiles by role, groups, tenant, verification status, and more. For developers, the Rest API and SDK make it easy to adapt the enforcer to any modern-day application framework.
  2. Tokenization Engine
    Digital Asset Management – This module contains two components. First, IDM’s smart contract library offers token contracts that can be owned, operated, and enforced by IDM user accounts. Secondly, the Virtual NFT (vNFT) gateway serves verifiable metadata for the token smart contacts in a zero-knowledge way (Proof of SQL). vNFTs are used to develop NFT’s with reactive and real time metadata that can represent off-chain assets on one of the token contracts.
  3. Data Management & Sharing
    Mesh SQL is a federated query engine integrated into the Instruxi Data Mesh. It connects various data sources, allowing seamless queries across decentralized databases. It has over 100 connectors for different data sources, making it highly adaptable to complex environments. The platform inherits robust user account security from the Mesh Enforcer, ensuring compatibility with authentication and authorization mechanisms, facilitating web3 enabled secure policy-driven SQL operations. The decentralized storage component integrates STORJ and Space and Time (SxT). STORJ provides scalable, secure, end-to-end encrypted object storage, effectively allowing applications to mimic AWS S3, Google Drive, OneDrive, or Dropbox but at 30% of the cost. This ensures cross-cloud querying with high levels of security and encryption. Additionally, Space and Time provides decentralized data warehousing, indexed blockchain data and their novel Proof of SQL for data verification. This architecture emphasizes data sovereignty, where users or tenants control access to their data through smart contracts, and policies are enforced by Proof of Policy mechanisms embedded in the Enforcer.
