Flux I Decentralized Cloud

The internet's infrastructure is controlled by three companies. When they go down, everything goes down. When they change pricing, you pay more. When they receive a court order, your app goes offline. We built an alternative.

Missed the last AMA? We've got you covered! In this new blog, we cover all you need to know about new happenings in the Flux Ecosystem.

This is the future of compute: platforms that scale invisibly, learn from code, and get out of the way. That's Deploy with Git. That's FluxCloud. Ready to eliminate the Kubernetes tax from your team? Get on the train: runonflux.com

But what about the economics? A team using Kubernetes on AWS pays 3–4 engineers just managing the cluster. Same team on FluxCloud? One person, maybe. The rest work on your actual product. Distributed compute across 67 countries. We manage it. You manage your code.

Container orchestration is supposed to be hard. But on FluxCloud with Deploy with Git, it's almost automatic. Let me walk you through how we're making Kubernetes-level control feel like pushing to GitHub.

Did you know? Google has deprecated or shut down over 270 products and services since 2011, according to the 'Killed by Google' tracker. For infrastructure teams, GCP's track record of product discontinuation represents a category of risk unrivalled even by AWS and Azure

"What if your cloud provider could never shut you down?" That's the problem Daniel Keller, Parker Honeyman, and Tadeas Kmenta set out to solve in 2018, when they launched a modest ZCash fork called ZelCash with one idea in mind: computing infrastructure that no single company controls. Three years later ZelCash became Flux. The vision got bigger. Instead of just a privacy coin, the team built an entire decentralized cloud, with its own operating system, its own node network, and its own parallel asset system for cross-chain compatibility. The physical backbone of the network is FluxNodes - servers run by individuals around the world, rewarded in $FLUX for contributing CPU, RAM, and storage. When the network launched, there were 1,100 of them, today there are over 15,000. The @RunOnFlux token powers it all: pay for hosting, collateralize a node, earn rewards for keeping the network running. Swap $FLUX on ChangeHero 👇 l.changehero.io/Exchange_FLUX

The infrastructure you're building on has no single point of failure, no single pricing authority, and no single entity that can decide to discontinue it. Better economics. More resilience. Same workflow. runonflux.com

You don't think about the nodes. You don't manage the operators. You don't interact with the protocol. You push. It runs. You move on. So what changes?

What does it look like to be a developer who builds on decentralized infrastructure? (A thread. 🧵)

After a month of infrastructure content: what's the one thing that would most change your view of decentralized infrastructure?
