wakuChoosing a Message History Strategy for Waku v2 Applications
A decision guide for Waku v2 message history: compare Relay-only, Relay+Store, and Relay+Filter+App persistence across node cost, availability, privacy, and operational complexity. Includes a concrete Docker-based validation to measure real resource trade-offs.
Managing Transient State with Waku Relay's Stateless Forwarding
Explore how Waku Relay uses stateless forwarding and TTL mechanisms to enable low-latency decentralized messaging without the overhead of local storage.
Optimizing Decentralized Message Routing with Waku v2 PubSub
Learn how Waku v2 leverages libp2p PubSub to reduce message latency and implement content-type filtering for more efficient decentralized application routing.
Diagnosing Silent Waku Subscriptions: A Step‑by‑Step Guide
When a Waku node subscribes to a topic but never receives messages, the culprit is often a subtle misconfiguration. This guide walks through the most common causes, how to verify each one, and practical fixes to restore message flow.
Choosing Waku's Messaging Layer for Decentralized Chat: Relay, Store, or Light Push
Waku offers Relay for live gossip, Store for durable history, and Light Push for thin clients. This guide compares the layers, explains trade-offs, and shows how to validate each path.
Lightpush in Waku: Trading CPU for Bandwidth on Sparse Pubsub Topics
Waku's Lightpush protocol filters relay traffic at each hop, cutting bytes on sparse topics but adding CPU cost and misconfiguration risk. Here is how it works and how to measure it locally.
Waku Store: Reliable Offline Messaging Without a Central Server
Waku Store lets late-joining nodes retrieve message history from peer-run logs instead of a central server. Here's how it works, how to verify it locally, and what it costs.
Using Waku’s Content‑Topic Bloom Filters to Cut Unwanted Traffic
Learn how Waku’s content‑topic bloom filters let lightweight clients subscribe only to the topics they need, reducing bandwidth with a predictable false‑positive rate.
