A small Remote Execution / Remote Procedure Call protocol and its implementation

SmolRX

SmolRX is a Java-based remote execution network app and protocol designed for secure and efficient distributed job processing.

Features

  • Remote Job Execution: Server assigns jobs; clients execute them locally, using transmitted JARs.
  • AES Encryption: Secure communication with RSA-negotiated AES encryption.
  • Deflate Compression: Optimized data transfer for reduced network overhead.
  • Job Dependency Management: Supports job prerequisites and redundancy mechanisms.
  • Zero External Dependencies: Lightweight and built purely with Java.

Details

  • Build Tool: Gradle
  • Licensed under Apache 2.0
  • Uses GCM, aligns with security best-practices such as AEAD.
  • ~260ms interconnect overhead. See Benchmarks for more details.

Current Progress

  • RSA-negotiated AES encryption
  • Deflate compression
  • Job and program configuration
  • Implementation of remote job execution

Future Enhancements

  • Better client-side implementations.
  • Emergent scheduling.
  • More tests and benchmarks.
