The EOS.IO software introduces a new blockchain architecture designed to enable vertical and horizontal scaling of decentralized applications. This is achieved by creating an operating system-like construct upon which applications can be built. The software provides accounts, authentication, databases, asynchronous communication and the scheduling of applications across hundreds of CPU cores or clusters. The resulting technology is a blockchain architecture that scales to millions of transactions per second, eliminates user fees, and allows for quick and easy deployment of decentralized applications.

EOS.IO explained at Consensus 2017
Watch Dan Larimer, CTO of block.one, discuss the advantages and promise of EOS.IO software. In addition to leading the development team working on EOS.IO, Dan previously founded two community projects that now have over 1 billion USD in aggregate token value and introduced the concept of the DAO in 2014 and is the inventor of Delegated/Nominated Proof of Stake (DPOS).
