    so the smart contract is just basically an application that you deploy to uh to the service but instead of deploying your application to AWS or uh gcp infrastructure which um can decide to switch it off or to to do anything with that you deploy it to to the blockchain and then you interact with your application not directly not going to AES but instead you interact with the RPC nodes and RPC nodes are your basically um uh API service or API Gateway or or

  2. 0:40

    reverse Ser reverse proxy like engine x uh for example which just knows how to route it's it's your it's a frontier of the service and it just knows how to route the uh requests down to the application um and those those those applications the the sess uh so-called application a contract or app in here it it has its own local storage uh it has uh we have some AP sdks and it can also interact with other applications uh that are alike and stored on the same

  3. 1:19

    blockchain which is which allows us to be even more um uh composable and build more apps because your your interface is now not uh the the HTP that could be um that could be not available at certain point you actually are the applications are internally communicating with each other right uh through the protocol primitive so-called cross contract calls um but let's not go too deep into it right um back to the

  4. 2:02

    analogy um the the several is the the the backend so the the contract are basically backends right uh with with a with a mixture of a database and a compute um and your and you have a standardized um API that you can expect to talk with your application so you don't need to worry about uh rest versus uh I don't know uh RPC
