Cacti enables two blockchain or DLT networks to transfer digital assets between each other using different mechanisms and modules, inherited from the older Cactus and Weaver projects. The Node Server acts as a container for business logic to orchestrate (or trigger) transactions across multiple networks toward achieving some desired simultaneous state change in those networks. The Relay acts as a gateway, or an ingress/egress appliance, for a given network to send communication to, and receive communication from, another network. Using the Relay or the Node Server or both, one can effect a digital asset transfer from one network to another, sample protocols for which have already been implemented in Cacti with samples for demonstration. Parallelly, there is an ongoing effort to standardize blockchain/DLT interoperation protocols through consultation and brainstorming among experts within the field under the IETF's aegis. The goal of this project is to implement the more current SATP draft specification in Cacti, in the process augmenting the Cacti Relay to be a gateway that provides a reference or template for any other standardized implementation. Using other Cacti modules and sample apps, secure transfers of digital assets using SATP must also be demonstrated. If time permits, performance measurements may also be conducted to benchmark the protocol, and specifically the Relay.
