Akash Network is the world's first decentralized cloud computing marketplace, often referred to as the "DeCloud for DeFi." The network connects server owners who provide computing resources to host applications with those who need them, thereby reducing costs as compared to traditional cloud services.
Akash Network is the world's first decentralized cloud computing marketplace, often referred to as the "DeCloud for DeFi." The network connects server owners who provide computing resources to host applications with those who need them, thereby reducing costs as compared to traditional cloud services.
Components
The Akash Network is composed of three key components:
-
Akash Providers: These are the server owners who manage infrastructure and Kubernetes clusters. They provide computing resources to the network.
-
Akash Network: This is the platform that facilitates deployment across providers securely and efficiently. It is often likened to Airbnb for data centers. The platform is built on open-source principles, ensuring standardization and community involvement.
-
Akash Tenants: These are the users who deploy apps on Docker containers in the Akash Network, benefiting from decentralized deployment and the flexibility to move between different providers.
Together, these components form the foundation of Akash’s decentralized cloud ecosystem, offering costimirality, choice, and open-source principles.
Objective
Akash Network aims to provide decentralized cloud services at a fraction of the cost of existing legacy services. By leveraging containerization technology and the open-source Docker Engine, Akash ensures fast and cost-effective application deployment compared to centralized cloud computing alternatives. The platform also incentivizes providers to offer their idle infrastructure, leveraging the force of utilization from the current idle capacity of data centers.
Native Token
The native multi-utility token of the Akash Network is AKT. This token secures the network through a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism, where validators and delegators stake AKT to generate new blocks. In addition to this, AKT provides its holders with on-chain governance rights, making contributors active participants in the network's evolution.
Usage
Akash Network is designed to be accessible and adaptable, ensuring that the deployment process is simplified and cost-effective. The network uses Kubernetes, ensuring a secure and tested platform for hosting applications. Additionally, it supports limitless storage and dedicated IP leasing, providing flexibility and control over resources. The platform prioritizes user privacy and security by allowing for anonymous deployment of applications while undisclosed hosting and governance rights given to AKT holders.
