In this chat, we spoke with Evgeny Ponomarev, Co-founder of Fluence Network. Ponomarev discusses the evolution of building a decentralized cloud service to compete with proprietary providers like AWS and Google Cloud. The evolution of centralizing forces in tech is one of the key developments that led to the creation of DePIN protocols.
“On a user-data level, shareholders want to maximize the monetization of your data… You don’t want one company to control all your run-time,” says Ponomarev.
What is Fluence:
Fluence offers decentralized, enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure with global compute, 75% lower costs, and zero vendor lock-in. It provides a global, permissionless, scalable, and secure alternative to centralized cloud computing platforms. Developers can build and deploy applications to a network of compute providers, which can range from professional data centers to home computers. Providers compete on price and performance and, to be paid and earn rewards, they constantly prove that they are serving applications.
