Over the years, ever since the inception of the computer age, we’ve all been inundated by multitudes of innovations and modifications that are pouring at a much faster pace all geared to solve one human challenge or the other. One very big plus to these advancements has been the ability to adapt new tech to previously unintended purposes while bringing solutions to human lives. Another has also been the ability to combine two new technologies together or a new tech with previously existing ones to achieve something phenomenal. This was recently put to work by a team of brilliant minds over at the DEEPCLOUD headquarters who came together to brainstorm on ways to bring the blockchain and AI tech together to resolve the seemingly daunting challenges faced by humanity in trying to make use of technology.
What the DEEPCLOUD platform does is to provide a cloud computing platform that uses an AI to optimize the smooth running of all types of dAPPs as well as provide a marketplace for the right tools and resources (computational and storage) for app developers to run and deploy their app with all while taking advantage of the security, immutability, and transparency of the blockchain (amongst other things).
CURRENT PROBLEMS FACED IN DOING THIS
- Centralized platforms: most players that have attempted this are mostly centralized platform that has to make use of multitudes of data centers which makes them incompatible with iOT apps that require the computational resource to be close to the edge devices in order to be able to handle the constantly growing data being generated at the edge.
- Cost of carrying out transactions: most platforms are not convenient and cost-effective for apps such as IoT apps that need to carry out microtransactions regularly as they function.
-- High platform fees: goes without saying that with the high cost of running the centralized platforms comes the high platform fees imposed on users of such platforms.
SOLUTIONS OFFERED BY DEEPCLOUD
- An AI that matches the best network resources available to the APP developer that needs it
- Ability to run complex computations off-chain using DEEPCLOUD’s AI’s decentralized cloud resources.
- Marketplace for resource providers to meet with app developers while providing them with a global presence.
- Very competitive platform fees.
- Using Sidechains, Decentralized Acyclic Graph Layer and blockchain technology, DEEPCLOUD has the ability to effectively handle the microtransactions of apps in the most cost-effective manner possible.
LET’S TALK MONEY!
On the platform, all users get to interact and access services provided as well as exchange value between themselves by use of the platform token known as DEEP. It is used for the token sales and can also be for
- Getting paid when providing storage space or computation power as a Network Resource Provider
- Rewarding Block miners (validators) who get paid in the form of newly minted DEEP tokens.
OTHER GOODIES
The platform is to have its very own blockchain while also being ERC20 compliant (talk about easy peezy!).
