A cloud platform, with the goal of building a fairer internet, has made its mainnet live — allowing its growing suite of network-ready applications to offer faster and more secure hosting services for websites, APIs, apps and e-commerce stores.
DADI says its peer-to-peer network helps to shift the emphasis of computing power away from large corporations, as its infrastructure is owned by users. The company claims that those who use its network enjoy greater performance and efficiency as a result, with costs slashed by as much as 60 percent when compared to traditional cloud providers.
This shift away from server farms could also be good for the environment, as spare computing capacity in devices that are commonplace in homes and offices around the world can be used to deliver results. Those who offer spare capacity through their device — be it a DADI Node device or their own games consoles, laptops or any other internet-enabled device — earn residual income through DADI tokens as a result.
According to the company, almost three-quarters of the competitive cloud computing market is now dominated by four tech giants: Google, Microsoft, Amazon and IBM. DADI’s goal is to transform the market’s landscape entirely — and its other web services are already being used by major brands such as Empire, Kiss, What Car? And Monocle. The team also believes that these media brands will opt to migrate to the network over time.
