  1. Collaboration with Project Alvarium
The IOTA Foundation, a non-profit developer of distributed ledger technology ecosystems, teamed up with Dell Technologies to create a real-time, data-driven solution for tracking carbon footprints. Dell Technologies announced the onboarding of IOTA, ClimateCHECK, and BioE to build a solution on top of Dell's in-house efforts, Data Confidence Fabric (DCF), and Project Alvarium.

IOTA has been a critical contributor to Project Alvarium, which was first proposed by Dell Technologies in 2019 and aimed to use validated data from the DFC or "trust fabric" across heterogeneous systems. The IOTA Foundation's head of sustainability, Matthew Yarger, said:

"Transparency and trust in data are paramount for addressing the global issues of climate change and transitioning to climate action."

Yarger elaborated on the idea, saying that the four organizations collaborated to create an integrated digital measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) platform.

Collaboration with Project Alvarium

The digital MRV, in collaboration with Project Alvarium, can collect data from sensors and manual input and process it through Dell PowerEdge servers to provide near real-time insights into BioE's sustainable energy and composting facility's carbon footprints.

By integrating trust insertion technologies with a system-based approach, Project Alvarium aims to develop the notion of data confidence textiles. The IOTA Foundation helped start the project, initially fostered within Dell Technologies. LF Edge's objective to stimulate industry collaboration, scale edge computing use, and harmonize the OSS edge ecosystem is well-aligned with Project Alvarium. The Alvarium framework brings together previous upstream and downstream efforts to create a comprehensive approach to data trust. Because of the focus on silicon and the significance of establishing trust from the time data is formed at the edge, we feel Alvarium is best suited for LF Edge.
