P2P Platform Attributes

P2P Architecture P2P mesh network (Bluetooth LE, P2P WiFi, LAN) with automatic peer discovery + optional Big Peer (cloud server); multiplexer intelligently switches between transport types without data duplication

Development Tools SDKs (Swift, Kotlin, React Native, Flutter, JS/TS, C++, .NET), DQL query language, HTTP API (RPC-based for Big Peer operations), real-time reactive subscriptions, TransportConfig API for mesh customization, Peer Metadata API for mesh visibility

Deployment Options Small Peer (embedded SDK in apps running on end-user devices) + Big Peer (cloud SaaS or BYOC Kubernetes on-premises deployment); Online Playground for development/testing; AWS Marketplace deployment available

Authentication & Identity OAuth 2.0, JWT, SAML (bring your own identity provider); peer-to-peer authentication via digital identities; Online Playground identity for testing; capability-based access control permissions

Storage Model Embedded local CRDT database on each device (offline-first; reads/writes always available locally) + optional Big Peer cloud sync; delta-based sync (only changes transferred); causal consistency model

Interoperability MongoDB Connector (bidirectional sync between MongoDB Atlas and Big Peer), Apache Kafka integration (Change Data Capture for streaming to external analytics), HTTP API for external system integration, object storage connectors

Social Graph No (infrastructure/database SDK, not a social networking platform; no built-in social graph)
