When pieces of information are collated and stored in a single, central location, this is referred to as centralized data. Data storage has become part of our day to day life even though most people might not be aware of it. They only realize its importance when they lose their personal devices like smartphones along with all their stored information. Cloud storage has made it easy to recover lost or stolen data from smart electronic devices. Cloud storage is basically data stored outside of your personal device which can be accessed from the internet. Pictures, videos, memos, notes and other computer files are examples of essential data that can be stored on cloud storage. This makes it possible to access and recover all the files saved there from any appropriate device. For individuals who own smartphones and laptops, owning your own personal cloud storage feels similar to having your own personal nuclear reactor. This is because cloud storage are complicated and expensive to run. Only powerful companies are able to run cloud storage as a service because they have developed the framework for it and also maintain the intricate servers necessary for processing and storing the data. In other words, when you make use of cloud storage your data is not in your own hands but in the hands of major corporations who hold central authority over it.
While it is good to make use of cloud storage services there will always be that lingering thought at one corner of our heads thinking what could happen if these powerful corporations shut off the service at any time citing external or internal influences as the reason. Another undesirable thing that might happen while your data is chilling in 3rd party cloud storage is the risk of hacking and possible expose of personal data. This isn’t anything new as we have seen it happen to people before, especially celebs whose nudes get leaked after their data has been hacked from certain cloud storage services. These are some of the few flaws facing centralized data storage that Nebula AI will correct.
Making use of excellent AI blockchain, Nebula has come into the fray of computing in order to ease the process of inter-regional transfer of data. Developers will find it much easier to write integrated and decentralized AI applications with Nebula AI. This move will cause a major shift in cryptocurrency as Nebula integrates hyperledger with other decentralized features. Blockchain micropayments will be faster and smoother while DApps (Decentralized Applications) will no longer be what they once were as they will evolve into DAI Applications.
Although central storage use servers owned by top companies, Nebula AI’s blockchain integration gives rights to own your data yourself. This is made possible as different nodes on the blockchain share responsibility, rights and obligations which is further verified by the global node distribution making it difficult for information to be defiled or faked. This is why Nebula AI’s planned decentralized cloud storage is primed to be successful as the refusal of a single node to perform its obligation will have little or no effect on the blockchain system as against the popular centralized cloud storage that has sole control over your data and can shut down the entire system at any point in time. Hacking is also futile because the data is not concentrated in one place but decentralized over the AI blockchain. If I was you, I’d take a keen interest in Nebula AI’s decentralized data storage project. For more information you can check out their whitepaper and website below.
