+## Executor TERRAFORM 
+
+> Terraform is a mechanism on how to deploy IT workloads in a reproducible and safe way.
+
+![](img/terraform_iac_.jpg)
+
+A terraform script has multiple parts and can get deployed by an executor.
+

+
+See the ThreeFold Technology book to learn more about how to use smarts contracts for IT and deploy any workload.

+# Executor VLANG 
+
+![](img/vlang.png)  
+
+VLang is an exciting language sponsored by ThreeFold. VLang has 27000 github stars and we believe its a very good language to build executor functions with.
+
+Why did we choose vlang as a first language to support on the TF Executors?
+
+- Its a very fast language (minimal energy & cpu footprint)
+- Its easy to learn
+- It compiles very fast
+
+![](img/vlang_executors_.jpg)
+
+### Utilization
+
+- As smart contract language inside chosen blockchain
+- As provisioning layer for TFGrid
+- As serverless function layer for Executors (super exciting)

+Peer2peer is the most decentralized way to experience our digital life.
+
+- all executors talk to each other over private secure links
+- there is no blockchain involved for the compute, storage & network requirements.
+- each executor needs compute, network and storage resources this is managed by L0 Validators.
+- The executor (web4 or twin) is the only entity who has control over the resource it requires, its all 100% private and fully peer2peer.

+## IPFS storage integration on Web4
+
+> IPFS is a standard used in the blockchain world on how to store and retrieve data from the blockchain.
+
+![](img/storage_layer_ipfs_.jpg)
+
+Each executor in the form of Web4 or twin is compatible with IPFS. 
+
+Each IPFS object can be safely stored on QSSS. 
+
+This provides the following unique Features
+
+- unbreakable storage for IPFS
+- more distribution on global scale
+- more performance for the enduser

+
+Executors are like digital twins but they are not linked to one specific person, they are stateless and can work on our behalf for any specific usecase and/or any pre-implemented. Some would call it our approach to serverless functions.
