21 New Compute Clusters In Two Months 📈

The figure worth watching on a compute network is how much has been set up to use it, because every new deployment is somebody who wrote code against it and shipped.

On $ARX that figure has a name. Apps compute on MXEs, dedicated clusters of nodes serving programs on $SOL and counted in public on the network explorer.

That count read 100 at the start of September and reads 121 this week, which is 21 new clusters in roughly two months.

Each one works the same way underneath. A job is split into fragments across the nodes in that cluster, no single node holds a readable copy of the input, and the correct answer goes back to the program that asked.

Every result settles on Solana as an ordinary public transaction, so the activity can be checked on the explorer rather than taken on anyone’s word.

The same explorer shows 2,734,572 computations since Mainnet Alpha opened on February 2.

Clusters are the closest thing a compute network has to a count of deployments, and that number climbing says more about adoption than any headline volume figure.
