Sessionchains

Sessionchains are ephemeral chains that host non-critical and temporary data for games

Our innovative approach to scalability is encapsulated in what we call Sessionchains. These are transient, ephemeral chains built upon the Sovrun platform. The primary function of these Sessionchains is to facilitate the execution of logic that doesn't require long-term storage or persistence. This characteristic makes them ideal for the dynamic environments of various Autonomous Worlds or DApps, which might frequently need computation without the overhead of enduring data retention. These are issues preventing the growth and innovation of the fully onchain gaming space. By offloading such tasks to our Sessionchains, we ensure that processes are both efficient and scalable, allowing for rapid implementation and execution in scenarios where longevity of data is unnecessary. This design choice reflects our commitment to providing scalable solutions that are both flexible and powerful, enhancing the overall efficiency of the systems they serve.

Sessionchains can be spun up by staking SOVRN, after which a chain deployer can initiate the instantiation process via smart contract interaction. Chain deployment itself will be abstracted away from the end user by Sovrun Labs, and will come predeployed with the necessary tools to build Autonomous Worlds.
