The article discusses the evolving landscape of decentralized computing infrastructure and cloud services, arguing that future Internet applications will require a blend of volunteer-based decentralized resources and traditional cloud services. Despite low current adoption rates of decentralized infrastructures, they are seen as essential for a more decentralized Internet. The piece highlights the significant reliance of decentralized applications (dApps) on cloud services, particularly in environments where most blockchain validator nodes are hosted in data centers, emphasizing the need for a new orchestration layer to mitigate centralization risks.
The future of Internet will likely rely on both decentralized ICT infrastructures and managed cloud services, as both can enhance decentralized support for Web applications.
Current adoption of decentralized volunteer-based computing infrastructures is low; however, their potential to aid future decentralized frameworks for Web applications is notable.
