THE FIRE RISES

iExec confirmed support by the Mossad, why aren't you buying goys.

It's all about scale, with enough "workers" (ie: computer offering ressources) it will ultimately beat Amazon by offering lowering the price, it's just the free market.

Also most of small or middle sized server providers don't have much uptime on their machines because their pool of client is contractually determined, iExec offers a solution to that by offering a global marketplace with no middleman, it's more flexible for them, right now only AWS offers "pay per use" and it's only because they are a behemoth, it will allow smaller players to do the same.

>But anyways: nobody wants to step in, and explain to me how the fuck such a distributed solution could ever compete with Amazons or Googles map-reduce factories
I don't know about that but surely some companies are able to fill the place if iExec as a platform knows success.

>What kind of usecases are they even targeting/imagining?
Most of the things cloud computing is already used for + emerging industries like fog computing, big datas and Dapps.

The project is pretty close to Golem, the difference is that Golem aims at being rapidly integrated into softwares (like Maya) while Iexec targets to do Dapps and edge computing which is a far better strategy from my pov but on the long term they want to do the same thing.

Also Golem is struggling to progress (see how late they are on Brass) while iexec is delivering on time (in fact they are already working on the V2 since multiple months), overall I would say there seems to be a huge gap of competence between the two teams, Gilles Fedak (the founder) literally wrote textbooks on grid computing when internet was barely a thing in the mainstream.
