Highlights
0 min 37 sec: Introduction of Guest
2 min 28 sec: High level description of the technology
Cloud centralization is a problem; it needs to be decentralized
Take over 100% or a partial amount of a machine added to the cloud network with special CoreOS based system
5 min 13 sec: Akash Network
Donate your idle servers into an available system for usage in a cloud managed by Overclock Labs
2 Components – Blockchain for marketplace / Deployment platform
6 min 52 sec: How does marketplace work; who wants to use this network?
Focus is on developers who want to use these systems
#1 Reason – Cheaper than standard public clouds ; #2 Reason – Its distributed globally not at fixed known sites
10 min 26sec: Blockchain as decentralized ledger to avoid central store
Join the infrastructure without a formal registration on a single database; only listening for bids not publishing what they offer
History of the infrastructure is public for customers to evaluate
12 min 31 sec: How do I know where I am pushing my workloads? Can I trust the infrastructure provider?
Issues arise with receiving workloads that are unknown to you
16 min 38 sec: What do I do to add a rack of servers into Akash network?
What you need to do vs what you should do
Management Server, Network Isolation, Monitoring
Seasonal Load Model ~ Electric Grid Analogy
20 min 23 sec: Identify Geography and Latency to Customers?
21 min 23sec: What do I ensure I am not getting dropped or pulled into a bidding trap?
Workload goes down it automates a bid elsewhere in the network
Conditions can be set should you need a long running workload and it is terminated by the host
Do you expect providers to monitor machines or do you as a service?
27 min 45 sec: Kubernetes Cluster across providers?
Kubernetes Federation
Why Kubernetes? Writing our own Kubernetes using Kubernetes
31 min 55 sec: Why not do this with Virtual Machines?
Containers makes sense
32 min 40 sec: How long have you been working on this project?
Why of the project? DISCO → Scheduler
Decentralization is the key
Can build a private infrastructure using their system
37 min 01 sec: Wrap-Up
