How Farcaster Hubs work

Hubs validate, storage and replicate account messages to other hubs in a decentralized way. 

There are 3 main components: storage, p2p and sync.

3. Sync​
Hubble periodically performs a diff sync with other peers to discover messages that may have been dropped during gossip. This is performed using gRPC APIs exposed by each Hub instance.

btw if you want to learn how this sync works, check these docs I finished for @kiwi (which are probably conceptually similar to FC‘s sync)
