Cloud computing & storage services are now practically all in the hands of big companies like Amazon, Google, Microsoft ... Have you ever asked how these giant companies are able to manage all the data that they are handling?
Projects that involve big data, IOT, AI and machine learning will be huge value generators for various industries but for every company to want to set up their own environment requires plenty of resources. Because of this, they are at the mercy of these companies, when it comes to security, up-time and pricing.
IAGON major aim is to provide small companies and people with storage capability and ability to process services at a cheaper and very affordable rate and also offering better security.
A term that was once more elusive than understandable, Artificial Intelligence is now an ever present, highly necessary advancement in technology. But what is Artificial Intelligence, and just how can IAGON benefit from the implementation of it?
Artificial Intelligence is the theory and development of computer systems that are able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence. It’s a set of advanced computational models and processes that are inspired by long term, in depth research of the human brain and is often the reason behind the generation of enhanced user experiences. This is due to the fact that the Artificial Intelligence works behind the scenes of your favorite websites and applications in a way that was built to avoid any unwanted interference during the user’s interaction with the UI (user interface).
With the market demand for Artificial Intelligence rich products continuing to grow, IAGON’s platform, which is powered by Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain Technology, fits directly into the mold, while simultaneously disrupting the core of the cloud computing industry and their key players.
What makes IAGON different from its competitors, is that it learns the behaviors of each miner by using defined variables such as availability, reliability, performance and cost benefit. For each variable the miner is given a score, also known as Cloud Score. The higher the score, the higher the miner can price his/her services. The lower the score, the lower the price. To achieve this, IAGON learns through a method known as reinforcement learning. Reinforcement learning is the science of decision making to handle a dynamic environment. This means IAGON undergoes an active learning process to optimize its decision making process to determine its course of action.
This creates an unparalleled paradigm towards how IAGON handles its input. Using a method known as Markov Decision Process that is based on probability theory, IAGON tries to determine an optimized form of reward system that improvises its actions to maximize its reward system over time.
Because IAGON aims to provide the platform miners and users with flexibility and freedom of choice in the providing and consuming of decentralized cloud services, the implementation of Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain Technology provides a unique and fully secure solution towards processing, storing and distributing data.
Additionally, IAGON uses the Proof-of-Utilitarian Work (PoUW), where the IAGON miner nodes need to proof the usage of their spare resources with meaningful computational work (CPU cycles and computer storage).

IAGON has been making strides as our token sale remains underway and throughout this entire process, we have been careful to exemplify the positive characteristics that will build trust and faith in our team and our revolutionary platform, from the influencers and investors within the space.
It is commonly known that IAGON aims to disrupt the Cloud Computing space, creating a Global Supercomputer that is powered by Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain Technology. Today, we are elated to announce that IAGON has reached the level of Diamond Tier status following an ICO score of 91% and a positive review of the platform done by Rocket Fuel.
Calling our project ‘Solid and Ambitious’, our glowing review focused on the structure of the platform, as well as the strength of the team, making mention of the IAGON founders, each of whom holds a PhD in their respective fields. In addition, they seemed pleased with the MVP (which can be accessed through the IAGON website), stating that it has great UI/UX functionality and the ability to solve use cases.
Though IAGON is still in the early stages of development, we have had consistency in the way that key players within this space view the IAGON project, validated by the fact that IAGON has a Track ICO rating of 5 of 5, an ICO Marks rating of 9.6 of 10, and an ICO Bench rating of 4.6 of 5. Moreover, we continue to select the best suited advisors and partnerships in order to ensure that we are positioned in a way that will place us as viable competition for the current cloud computing and storage service providers.
Furthermore, IAGON’s infrastructure is unique and innovatively developed to cater to the massive market, capitalizing on the heightened security that accompanies the use and implementation of the Blockchain.
Companies recognize the value of data as a key component and asset, that needs to be safeguarded. As the global data industry continues to grow, organizations will find themselves in the need to search for a secure, scalable architecture that can support on-demand capacity and the ever-increasing amounts of data. The organizations that decide not to leverage the public cloud or take a “wait and see” approach may run into risks of being disrupted by others in their industry. Additional consequences include losing valuable data, leading to financial catastrophes that would potentially put the organizations at “risk”.
On Upcoming 2018, Equifax, a company that specializes in disseminating unsecured user information, identified that another 2.4 million Equifax consumers had sensitive data such as names and partial driver’s license numbers stolen in massive leaks within the last year.
This is a common problem that many businesses are facing — The ability to cope with security demands required to protect their systems. Major factors that are causing these issues are often associated with cost and the complexity required to implement these security solutions. Using these two premises as core goals is what gave origin to IAGON.
The Big Data market is characterized by the recent adoption of Data Lake architectures, such as information systems that are based on the Hadoop framework, by large companies. The Data Lake architecture is based on implementation of a NoSQL central database (such as MongoDB, HBase or Cassandra) in which files of any sort can be stored and retrieved from.
Nonetheless, the data lake architecture suggests that once it is hacked, an intruder can “swim” in the database system, explore the files and gain access to valuable data describing every aspect of the operations of an organization that is hacked.
IAGON’s Secure Lake is based on the Blockchain unbreakable encryption technology, on file slicing and storage of small, anonymous and strongly encrypted slices of the original files ensures the complete protection of data files, other types of files (such as scans, photos and videos) and databases of any size and ensures the rapid retrieval and update of any stored file. Except from the user who securely uploads a file and has the password (key) to retrieve and encrypt it, no one can read the contents of the small file slices, encrypt, delete, change, retrieve them, identify their source or even associate them with other file slices that are generated from the original, uploaded file. IAGON’s technology ensures that even when information systems are breached in any way, the data and files that they use cannot be accessed, deleted or modified in any way.
In conclusion, IAGON’s vision is to introduce an alternative to AWS, Google Cloud and Azure’s cloud services that will cater the needs of Big Data and AI operations, as well as to those of conventional data storage and processing operations. IAGON aims to fulfill the cloud needs of organizations, ranging from SMEs to corporates, by providing bullet-proof security against data leaks and breaches over the Blockchain at a lower cost. IAGON also develops AI based allocation of processing and storage tasks over the decentralized grid to continuously improve and optimize its performance.

Cloud computing services have been in high demand for quite some time now, being pushed and encouraged by several various factors, including needs for efficiency improvement, hybrid adoption, growth in Internet of Things (IoT), and more.
Although the market has continued to face a bit of resistance, due in part to governmental restrictions, rules and regulations, the ability for the cloud to enforce heightened mobility and uninterrupted continuity of business are guaranteeing the success and continued need for secure cloud storage options and providers.
At this point, we are still running based upon the oligopolistic dominance of the four most prominent, yet centralized, cloud computing providers: AWS, Microsoft, IBM & Google, however, the separation and acknowledgement that decentralized solutions have better security options, as well as coming at a cheaper cost, has opened the doors for IAGON and similar companies to come in and directly compete with the current market giants.
While individuals and organizations continue to make the switch towards the adoption of the cloud, it is likely that many of the new users would lean towards a decentralized cloud storage solution because of the increasing level of digital needs within any given form of business, coupled with the variety of successful breaches and attacks of well-known centralized players.
Moreover, there is definitely a competitive advantage to be had when you know that you are working on a secure network, one powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Blockchain technology, such as the IAGON (IAG) platform.
In a recent article published by Cointelegraph, we were amazed of how many large Data Breaches have occurred over the past six months, leaving hackers with up to millions of dollars worth of prizes. This article specifically references cryptocurrency exchanges that have been victims of these attacks, and although they have promised to compensate their users’, this just shows us that even the biggest players cannot guarantee complete safety.
Data breaches tend to occur when individuals are allowed to read data that they are not authorized to access. Once they can read the data, they can compromise it and even manipulate changes. Depending on the type of data that’s compromised, the consequences can include destruction / corruption of databases, drops in company ratings, mainstream media overreaction or a damaged reputation, which are a few of the one’s experienced by these cryptocurrency exchanges.
As more and more data breaches continue to arise, companies need to be made aware of solutions such as IAGON that can be used to protect their users data and provide them with a safer experience. IAGON’s Secure Lake is based on the Blockchain unbreakable encryption technology, on file slicing and storage of small, anonymous and strongly encrypted slices of the original files ensures the complete protection of data files, other types of files (such as scans, photos and videos) and databases of any size to ensure the rapid retrieval and update of any stored file.
Aside from the user who securely uploads a file and has the password (key) to retrieve and encrypt it, no one can read the content of the small file slices, encrypt, delete, change, retrieve them, identify their source or even associate them with other file slices that are generated from the original, uploaded file. IAGON’s technology ensures that even when information systems are breached in any way, the data and files that they use cannot be accessed, deleted or modified in any way.
IAGON continues to work towards fulfilling the cloud needs of organizations, by providing bulletproof security against data leaks and breaches over the Blockchain at a lower cost. They also develop AI based allocation of processing and storage tasks over the decentralized grid that continuously improve and optimize its performance. There is no doubt that the technologies behind this platform contribute significantly to the security of users and their data.
As many may know, the demand for computational processing capabilities and storage is expected to dramatically increase in the near future due to the recent adoption of two major trends in the business and computing world: Big Data and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Big Data is known as the collection, management and storage of vast amounts of information obtained from any internal or external source; and AI, as methods that “learn” from data on past operations, find patterns and business rules to predict future behaviors.
Just as these markets for cloud storage services and AI technologies continue to grow, so will the massive amounts of investments made by companies, creating a barrier for them to save costs while having the need to secure their data. This is currently due to the complexity involved in these operations and the amounts of purchasing GPU and CPU units that are dedicated to carrying out this scope of computations. Not to mention the amount of expenses involved when purchasing processing power from leading cloud service providers, such as IBM, Google Cloud or Amazon, to name a few. This is where Iagon, the Global Supercomputer comes in. A platform that aims at providing companies and individuals with storage and processing services at a fraction of the market prices and at a better security level.
To give you a better idea, Iagon is a platform for harnessing the storage capacities and processing power of multiple computers over a decentralized Blockchain grid. Iagon utilizes enables to store big data files and repositories, as well as smaller scales of files, and to carry out complex computational processes, such as those needed for artificial intelligence and machine learning operations, within a fully secure and encrypted platform that integrates Blockchain, cryptographic and AI technologies in a user-friendly way.
Their Smart Computing Grid is based on advanced Artificial Intelligence components that include more than 100 Machine Learning algorithms, methods and techniques that integrate to form their AI-Tracker system, which is the “brain ” behind the Smart Computing Grid . It optimally allocates encrypted file slices to the miners ’ free’s storage spaces and computational tasks to the miners ’free (idle) CPUs and GPUs that compose the Smart Computing Grid.
Here are some key features of Iagon’s platform:
AI techniques for continuous analysis of the distributed computing performance parameters of miners and optimum resource allocation of peer-to-peer (P2P) Blockchain/DLT networks
The platform is fully decentralized
Iagon uses the Proof-of-Utilitarian Work (PoUW)
It can partner and complement other decentralized Internet infrastructure solutions, enabling a shared Internet economy
It is technology-agnostic and can work with any underlying Blockchain/DLT platform
All customer files are highly secured: Iagon provides a security layer because it identifies specific digital fingerprints associated with the request going through the server to identify if a request is an honest node
In addition, the Blockchain is another undeniably ingenious invention, which created the backbone of a new type of Internet communication. In Iagon’s platform, it offers the following unique benefits:
The predictions here are clear. As the amount of data continues to grow, we will start noticing an increase in the demand for lower cost and reliable storage solutions. Companies will also find themselves in the need to analyze these amounts of data by applying advanced analytics and Artificial Intelligence techniques. Others will continue to shift from on premise architecture of their information systems to cloud computing. The combination of these demands, needs and trends is exactly what’s being supported on Iagon’s Decentralized and Secure Cloud Platform. The technologies behind this platform contribute significantly to the security of users and their data.
Over the past couple of years several surveys, focused on cloud computing trends, have been conducted with the intent of providing insights on some of the challenges that business owners have been facing within this industry. Curious enough, the results from different survey providers all happened to highlight similar, if not the exact same challenges, which were broken down as follows:
By joining the unused storage capacity of servers and personal smart devices and their processing power into one computational grid and allocating processing tasks and uploaded files, IAGON can create a Supercomputer and a super data center that can compete with any of the current cloud computing moguls. Their solution is based on joining multiple servers and smart devices by utilizing their free storage capacities to store file fragments in an anonymous and highly secure manner, along with operating their processors during idle times for parallel conduction of allocated tasks. Powering the computational processing and storage grid with the Blockchain/Tangle technology ensures the complete security of both businesses and users, their anonymity, privacy and the complete integrity of the tasks and the files transferred, processed and stored on IAGON’s Smart Computational Grid (SCG).
The IAGON platform was designed to benefit different types of users and it’s main share of the user market consists of corporates, public institutes and SMEs that require large secure storage and processing capacities (including cloud services, database storage, historical data archiving, data analytics, batch processing, etc.).
Over the years we’ve been hearing a lot of discussions around two of the most popular Business trends, commonly known as Big Data and Artificial Intelligence. It has also been predicted that 2018 will be the year when more and more companies will start investing in these initiatives as they position themselves to compete in the future.
But why have these technology innovations become so popular over these past few years if they’ve been around since the 50’s? The answer is simple. Because today we finally have a cost efficient way to collect, store, compute and transfer massive amounts of data in a way that wasn’t possible before.
There’s clearly been a noticeable increase in measurements when it comes down to Big Data. To give an example, when computers were initially created we would hear technology specialists talking about bytes, which then evolved to kilobytes, gigabytes, terabytes up to petabytes which is what supercomputers use. These measurements do not stop here as they will continue to increase 50 times more within the next decade. As the amounts of data from different sources (computers, smartphones, IoT, embedded systems) continue to grow, it will become more and more accessible for Businesses to start adopting solutions that run on Artificial Intelligence.
Big data allows us to get better insights on everything
Big data is being used to improve workforce performance and decisions
Businesses continue to report how they are achieving measurable results from investing in these technologies
Through Big Data, it is now possible to train the AI systems and help them learn
Just like a human brain, AI and machine learning algorithms require inputs of data to deduce an inference
CPUs and GPUs with computing capabilities help process data in real-time which derives rules for AI based applications
Natural language processing (NLP) is now being leveraged in several applications
The combination of these technologies is creating a new innovative path for businesses around the world and IAGON is one that plans to stay ahead of the game. IAGON uses a Smart Computing Grid based on advanced Artificial Intelligence components that include more than 100 Machine Learning algorithms, methods and techniques that integrate to form their AI-Tracker system, which is the “brain” behind their Smart Computing Grid . IAGON’s AI-Tracker is a dynamic learning system that continuously analyzes past and current data streams that reflect the availability of storage space and processing capacities of miners.
• Connects multiple producers to customers
• Fulfils the demand for the necessary resource
• It transfers unused resources to customers in need (CPU and GPU processing power and storage space)
• It benefits the miners providing processing power and storage space to the grid without requiring efforts when their servers and computers are not used by them.
Among the many use cases and benefits that IAGON seeks to provide, the benefits that this platform brings specifically to miners who play such a major role in IAGON’s infrastructure are extremely important to highlight and describe.
One of the most common methods that miners use is Proof of Work or Proof of Stake, which is a mechanism that rewards a particular miner for discovering a particular block. IAGON decided to take a different and better approach by using a “Proof of Variance” mechanism.
The Proof of Variance essentially classifies each miner based on their contribution into a pool, allowing miners within the same pool to compete which each other. Miners from lower pools get upgraded or downgraded based on several factors but the two main factors are speed and amount of data that they are able to handle. This mechanism uses a combination of algebraic theory and probability functions to compute a miners contribution and determine which pool they can be classified under. This allows newer miners to profit from mining data while increasing their processing assets. It also allows miners who invest more to receive an immediate return on their investment.
As block tasks are distributed to miners, they need to match the data signature from the data input and find its corresponding data object in the block to return the data output. They do not need to store any of the data they process, though once it is validated to belong to the specific block, the miner is considered to have mined the block and receives incentives for it.
IAGON provides miners with complete flexibility and freedom of choice in providing and consuming decentralized cloud services.
Miners can choose either Ethereum or Tangle to fully secure and store their files, process computational tasks, pay and receive IAGON tokens for cloud services.
IAGON benefits the miners who provide processing power and storage space to the grid without requiring efforts when their servers and computers are not used by them.
Blocks are distributed evenly to miners by utilizing proof of variance and does not store any of the data within their local systems. This allows data to be processed anonymously without being able to identify any single node individually.
Miners are incentivized to process the data quickly to earn rewards.
Miners receive incentives based upon the number of processes they perform. In other words, the more data they process the bigger the incentives.
IAGON has already developed and released its beta version (MVP) of the storage grid and the miner’s application. The storage grid supports the upload of files, their encryption via SHA256 and the Blockchain, the distribution of file shards between miners and the secure retrieval of files stored on multiple nodes by the user. To learn more about IAGON’s MVP or to test it, you can visit the following link: IAGON MVP.
The day we are thrilled to announce that IAGON has been given a grade of 91% through a recent ICO Deep Analysis conducted by Jason North, from Rocket Fuel Capital. This is a huge honor for IAGON, as only 1 to 2 projects out of 100 usually make it to this level, and we are grateful to have been granted this immense accomplishment.
According to Jason North, IAGON’s base score started at 86% and has been consistently trending upwards. For the purposes of full disclosure, North clearly mentions that this analysis was conducted before he had officially started advising this project, therefore it remains completely unbiased, however, towards the end of his analysis, he was officially invited to become an advisor to the IAGON team. In addition, North stated that the uniqueness, ambitiousness and overall vision of IAGON, is what led him to the decision of becoming an advisor.
“I only want to work with the best companies that I believe in and that have a future.”

“In terms of con’s, I really didn’t find that many, and the one’s I did find, they managed to address and resolve quickly. The team is super responsive and their vision is huge. I am really excited about this project and I’m amazed with what they’ve accomplished within this year. I believe that the space that they are in has amazing potential.”
We still have a bit of time remaining for the IAGON main token sale and continue to see consistent activity going on in within the Referral Competition, permitting more interested parties to join the IAGON community and invest in the revolutionary possibilities of the IAGON platform. There have, however, been countless questions and further speculation as to what is going to happen to the unsold tokens following the IAGON token sale.
You know, are we going to burn it, distribute it? The uncertainty has been clear among our telegram and community members and we’ve got some answers to put your mind at ease about what is going to happen after the token sale comes to an end.
We’re pleased at the current results of the pre-sale, as we have met our soft cap and are on the way to hitting the hard cap as well, however, there can be no exact way to tell whether or not all of the tokens will be purchased prior to the end of the main sale, so in the event that there are IAGON tokens remaining, there are a few steps that will be taken with an aim of ensuring full distribution of ALL leftover tokens.
Following the completion of IAGON’s Main Sale, we will be moving forward with the distribution of the remaining, unsold tokens for token sale participants, over the course of a 2-year period. During this time, all qualified participants will receive the allotted token distribution every 4 months, with the first distribution being 4 months succeeding the first day of being listed on the exchange. On the other hand, should any ICO participant sell their purchased tokens, or tokens received through our Post-Sale distribution, they will forfeit any future token distributions that may have been available to them.
As we come closer to the end of the Main Token Sale, additional clarity will be delivered to our loyal community members, though we hope that this article acts to place your minds at ease as to what steps are to follow the completion of IAGON’s main sale.
t is important to circulate our vision in a way that will, not only grow our audience and community, but also continue to keep them up to speed on who IAGON is and what our revolutionary project is capable of.
Keeping true to form, IAGON’s very own CEO Navjit Dhaliwal sat down for an in depth interview with Jason Rigden, the host of the popular Blockchain podcast, Talking Cryptocurrency.
The 20-minute long interview was conducted in order to deliver additional information about the IAGON platform, and cover a few questions that may have been raised by interested investors, Blockchain enthusiasts and individuals who are just now breaking into the space and desire to learn more. Unlike other podcasts, Jason focused his questions on the project, rather than the guest, asking questions like:
Can you tell me about the problem that you are solving?
How are you solving that problem?
What are some of the challenges of solving that problem?
What are the future goals of the project?
If you haven’t had the chance to check out this interview, please take some time to listen, learn and get informed about the new and innovative IAGON platform.

Currently in the market, the problem is that super computers are only accessed by large companies like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Daraz.pk as they pay high fees to be able to use super computers and other centralized computing resources. Individuals and smaller companies are not able to afford this services.
As Deep Learning and other aspects of Artificial Intelligence is adopted into a wider range of fields, high computing power is required to evaluate large data sets and this creates a huge challenge for new and upcoming developers who wish to pursue Deep Learning Projects.
This problem has been solved by the decentralized platform, IAGON. It is a platform where various devices sync together in order to secure data. It also promotes the cryptocurrency technology, by developing a communication thread among all the personal devices owned by a person. This feature allows an individual to benefit from the blockchain technology, by securing the data on a cloud with the inclusion of reachability of different devices.
IAGON runs using a smart computing data grid that works more like a centralized storage host, more like a power source that is responsible for the allocation and distribution of storage space available on the IAGON platform. The Smart Computing Grid manages a network of CPU and storage providers and also allows its users to earn by accessing their unused data.
IAGON’s Secure Lake Technology is based on the Blockchain unbreakable encryption technology, on file slicing and storage of small, anonymous and strongly encrypted slices of the original files. It will use military layer file encryption (SHA256) ensuring a high level of security.
Determines underused resources and adds
them to allocation pool for users to access.
Allows the CPU and storage providers to earn.
Manage a network of CPU and storage providers
as well as users who need those resources.
The AI-Tracker has more than a 100 different Machine Learning algorithms that power the Smart Computing Grid's resource allocation system. This tracker will be used to identify the problems related to nodes between storage providers and users. Based on historical data, the AI-Tracker manages node quality, storage and CPU distribution optimization. The AI-Tracker is designed to evolve and optimize it's own distribution algorithm, growing and improving along with the entire network.
Users can earn using the IAGON platform by sharing their unused space in exchange for tokens. Users can exchange their space in exchange for tokens which in return can be converted to FIAT money and users who need extra space can buy tokens and use them as a purchasing power to buy storage space on the platform.
The IAG tokens are currently priced at 0.12 USD per token and can be purchased here.
IAG tokens can be purchased by ETH, Bank Transfer or debit/card. KYC/AML required.
Their vision is to create a global supercomputer grid, powered by Artificial Intelligence & Blockchain Technology that will revolutionize the cloud and web services market. IAGON's major aim is to make cloud computing and large data storage accessible to a wide range of people.
"Having a global supercomputer that is accessible to all is not only a resource the world needs but a effectively a more optimized way to leverage resources."
