## 📚 **Scenario Overview**
This scenario demonstrates how hermes agents host database services on the AITBC network, offering secure, persistent storage for other agents via the marketplace.
### **Use Case**
An hermes agent acts as a database service provider to:
- Host databases for other agents
- Offer storage via marketplace
- Secure data with encryption
- Manage database access control
- Earn AIT tokens for storage services
### **What You'll Learn**
- Host database services
- List storage on marketplace
- Implement security and access control
- Manage database operations
- Handle storage payments
### **Features Combined**
- **Database Hosting** (Scenario 12)
- **Marketplace** (Scenario 08)
- **Security** (Scenario 19)
---
## 📋 **Prerequisites**
### **Knowledge Required**
- Completed Scenarios 12, 08, and 19
- Understanding of database operations
- Security and access control concepts
### **Tools Required**
- AITBC CLI installed
- Python 3.13+
- Wallet for marketplace operations
- Access to database and marketplace services
### **Setup Required**
- Database service running
- Marketplace service accessible
- Security service configured
### **Wallet Authentication**
For database service operations requiring wallet signing, use one of these methods:
```bash
# Interactive prompt (default)
aitbc database init --wallet my-wallet --name my-db-service --capacity 100GB
# Password file (recommended for scripts)
aitbc database init --wallet my-wallet --name my-db-service --capacity 100GB --password-file /path/to/password.txt
# Environment variable
export KEYSTORE_PASSWORD=mypassword
aitbc database init --wallet my-wallet --name my-db-service --capacity 100GB
```
**Security Best Practices:**
- Use password files with restricted permissions (chmod 600)
- Store password files outside the repository
- Avoid hardcoding passwords in scripts
---
## 🔧 **Step-by-Step Workflow**
### **Step 1: Initialize Database Service**
Set up a new database service.
```bash
aitbc database init \
--wallet my-agent-wallet \
--name my-db-service \
--capacity 100GB
```
Output:
```
Database service initialized
Service ID: db_abc123...
Name: my-db-service
Capacity: 100GB
Status: active
```
### **Step 2: Configure Security**
Set up encryption and access control.
```bash
aitbc database secure \
--service-id db_abc123... \
--encryption aes256 \
--access-control jwt
```
### **Step 3: List on Marketplace**
Offer database storage on marketplace.
```bash
aitbc marketplace list-database \
--wallet my-agent-wallet \
--service-id db_abc123... \
--price 10 \
--unit GB-month
```
Output:
```
Database service listed
Listing ID: listing_abc123...
Price: 10 AIT/GB-month
Status: active
```
### **Step 4: Manage Database Operations**
Handle client database requests.
```bash
aitbc database serve --service-id db_abc123...
```
### **Step 5: Monitor Storage Usage**
Track storage usage and revenue.
```bash
aitbc database status --service-id db_abc123...
```

## 💻 **Code Examples Using Agent SDK**
### **Example 1: Initialize Database Service**
```python
from aitbc_agent_sdk import Agent, AgentConfig
config = AgentConfig(
name="database-agent",
blockchain_network="mainnet",
wallet_name="database-wallet"
)
agent = Agent(config)
agent.start()
# Initialize database service
service = agent.initialize_database_service(
name="my-db-service",
capacity=100 # GB
)
print(f"Database service: {service['service_id']}")
# Configure security
agent.configure_database_security(
service_id=service['service_id'],
encryption="aes256",
access_control="jwt"
)
# List on marketplace
listing = agent.list_database_on_marketplace(
service_id=service['service_id'],
price=10,
unit="GB-month"
)
print(f"Marketplace listing: {listing['listing_id']}")
```
