# Core Components

### 1. **Membase: Identity & Memory Management**

As the foundational layer of Unibase, Membase focuses on:

* **Identity Registration**: Assigns unique, verifiable identities to Agents for recognition across decentralized networks.
* **Configuration & History Tracking**: Stores Agent configurations, interaction logs, and session histories to ensure consistency and traceability across environments.
* **Authorization Mechanisms**: Enforces access control and permission management, restricting Agents to authorized data/services for enhanced security.

Membase prioritizes lifecycle management and dynamic permission control, allowing Agents to adapt seamlessly to diverse decentralized applications.

### **2. AIP (Agent** Interoperability **Protocol): Standardized Interaction & Security**

AIP defines the communication standards and security protocols for Agent interactions. Key features include:

* **Standardized Workflows**: Specifies message formats, communication protocols, and data structures for cross-Agent interoperability.
* **Decentralized Authorization**: Enables cryptographic signature-based identity/authorization verification without centralized servers.
* **Multi-layered Trust**: Integrates decentralized identities, Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs), and flexible permission verification for secure, scalable trust-building.

AIP ensures standardized, privacy-preserving interactions while strengthening access control across the Unibase ecosystem.

### **3. DA: Decentralized Storage & Data Availability**

DA provides decentralized, persistent storage for Agents with:

* **Distributed Storage**: Uses erasure coding to fragment and distribute data across nodes, ensuring censorship resistance and long-term availability.
* **On-chain Verifiability**: Leverages blockchain and ZKPs to validate data integrity and accessibility on-chain.
* **Efficient Retrieval**: Combines decentralized indexing for rapid data lookup, improving system responsiveness.

By merging decentralized storage with on-chain verification, DA++ eliminates reliance on centralized databases while ensuring data reliability and scalability.
