Cloud Computing Resources for decentralized applications
- Who
The background technology of iExec has been developed by research scientists at the INRIA and CNRS institutes in the field of Desktop Grid Computing, which allows to harness thousands of distributed nodes to execute very large parallel applications. - How
iExec creates a network of providers that form a virtual Cloud Infrastructure. You can access this distributed infrastructure either to run your applications, or to be one of the providers by renting your resources.
Powering the New Generation of Applications
iExec can support applications within a wide range of fields, from High Performance Computing to Internet-of-Things.
By being an open market, iExec encourages competition amongst the providers, which leads to lower computation costs and to increased quality-of-service.
- High Performance Computing
HPC is a key technology for designing innovative products. iExec will democratize it by making it affordable for everyone. - Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence and machine learning requires heavy computing power when training the models. iExec will support the most popular frameworks such as TensorFlow, Caffe, Theano, Torch. - Big Data
The volume of generated data is growing exponentially. Therefore, the processing capacities must follow in proportion to extract knowledge from this deluge of data.
iExec Marketplace
The First Marketplace for Computing Resources
The Worker Pools
Workers are the cloud providers in charge of executing the works submitted by users. Similarly to blockchain miners, workers share their resources and get rewarded in RLC. These workers can be public or private, and are organized in worker pools. For each one of these, a scheduler manages the work distribution.
The iExec decentralized marketplace is where offer meets demand for computing power. The marketplace leverages state-of-the-art blockchain technologies, which offer a high level of trust and traceability. Welcome to the new era of decentralized economies.
- BID
Applications and users place “work orders” for their works to be executed based on pre-selected criteria - ASK
Workers place a sell order defining the price at which they are willing to execute works. They receive RLC each time they fulfill a “work order”.
iExec introduces a new paradigm for cloud computing. Cloud resources can now be traded on a global market, just like any other commodity. Instant access to a large capacity of computing power from the provider offering the best rate.
- On-demand
Users have on-demand access to the resources they need. A new pricing model labeled “Pay-per-Task” allows workers to unify resources, offering valuable flexibility to users. - Accessible
Anyone can be a network participant. The underlying blockchain and desktop grid technologies are cutting-edge, but users and workers benefit from a friendly user-interface from which they can engage with the iExec network. - Cost-efficient
Participants can set their own prices in a peer-to-peer market free of fees. Competition between workers, and the aggregation of spare resources from all over the world guarantee competitive prices for cloud computing.
Proof-of-Contribution (PoCo)
PoCo is the protection shield of the iExec marketplace. It is a consensus algorithm that guarantees protection against Byzantine workers (who could provide bad results to penalize users) and users (who could argue against legitimate work performed by legitimate workers). PoCo enforces trust on a decentralized network.
- What is PoCo?
Proof-of-Contribution is a consensus protocol designed by iExec. It ensures trust between all participants on the iExec Marketplace. - Why do we need a consensus protocol?
PoCo ensures a high level of trust and traceability. It allows users to trust the results computed by an external actor, who is incentivised by making an income for their contribution. - How does it work?
To incentivise participants, Poco integrates mechanisms such as consensus through majority voting, staking and reputation scoring. All of this data is stored on-chain.
iExec RLC
RLC stands for “Run on Lots of Computers”. RLC is a cryptocurrency that provides standard and secure payments.
- What is RLC
As with any cryptocurrency, RLC can be securely and easily stored, transferred, traded, divided and used to make payments. - Simple to use
To access the iExec resources you need, you may pay with RLC tokens on a pay-as-you-go basis. - Secure
RLC is an ERC20 compliant digital asset on Ethereum. - Widely Adopted
83 million RLC are in circulation allowing businesses to begin their journey in the iExec ecosystem.
