The chapter delves into a decentralized compute marketplace known as Akash where individuals can offer their cloud-based and on-premise resources for leasing. It showcases how Akash differs from traditional cloud providers by being open source, permissionless, and community-governed, providing a cost-effective and transparent alternative for resource sharing.
Akash Network is a decentralized cloud computing platform that leverages unused compute capacity around the world. It makes this capacity available to others, and provides a decentralized peer-to-peer model for managing and paying for these resources in an online marketplace.
Greg Osuri is the CEO for OverClock Labs which created Akash Network. He joins the show to talk about Akash.
