Brizo is the technical component executed by Publishers allowing them to provide extended data services. Brizo, as part of the Publisher ecosystem, includes the credentials to interact with the infrastructure (initially cloud, but could be on-premise).

## What is Ocean Protocol?
It's a decentralized data exchange protocol to unlock data for artificial intelligence (AI).
Ocean Protocol is an ecosystem for the data economy and associated services. It provides a tokenized service layer that exposes data, storage, compute and algorithms for consumption with a set of deterministic proofs on availability and integrity that serve as verifiable service agreements. There is staking on services to signal quality, reputation and ward against Sybil Attacks.
Ocean helps to unlock data, particularly for AI. It is designed for scale and uses blockchain technology that allows data to be shared and sold in a safe, secure and transparent manner.
While vast amounts of data are generated each year, data exchange and analysis have been hampered due largely to concerns over trust and security. Currently, many organizations have data but do not have the trusted and secure means to share it. Without data, AI cannot advance and be applied to solve problems and ultimately improve lives. More pressing is the fact that today, only a handful of companies have both AI and data capacities, and if data remains locked up, these companies could very well govern the development of AI and thereby our future.

If you want to set up a marketplace for the Ocean network, then you could start by running the following tech stack:
1. Pleuston
1. Aquarius
1. [🦄 pleuston](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/pleuston)
1. [🐋 aquarius](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/aquarius)
1. A database for Aquarius
Then you could modify that stack to better suit your needs.
@ -16,10 +16,12 @@ Let's take a closer look inside each of those components.
Pleuston is an example Ocean marketplace written in JavaScript using React and Redux.
It uses the squid-js library to interact with Ocean network services, such as Keepers, Brizo nodes, Secret Stores, and your own Aquarius node.
Pleuston runs entirely in the browser, i.e. Pleuston has no server-side part. It communicates directly with Keepers etc.
You _could_ build an Ocean marketplace with a browser-side frontend and a server-side part.
For example, the server-side part could be written in Python and it could use the squid-py library.
Currently, there is no explicit example of how to do that, but there are examples of how to use squid-py, e.g. from IPython running in a Jupyter notebook.
See the Tutorials section.

Aquarius is an application used by Marketplaces to store, update, read and delete metadata about assets. The Squid libraries all know how to talk to Aquarius, so you don't need to think about it or its API too much. You just need to make sure you have Aquarius running on a server somewhere.
