In simple terms cloud computing is referred to as the delivery of computer services over the internet (i.e. cloud). These services may include databases, storages, networking, servers and several others. Cloud computing is widely adopted across the globe with many people having no idea they make use of it in their day-to-day activities. A typical use case of cloud computing is storing and managing files in your Google Drive account or creating new app and services on the internet. Besides having numerous benefits, the traditional way of proving cloud services have been proven to have gaps and loopholes (security and privacy, performance and bandwidth cost, architecture transparent etc.). The staffs of Sparkster, having once faced these challenges decides to find a way out (i.e. improving the services of traditional cloud storage providers). They focus on developing a decentralized cloud network that will facilitate the deployment of smart software across a network of cell phones, notebooks, laptops or other personal devices held by their network of miners.
In order for Sparkster to compete with the guru in the industry like Amazon®, Microsoft® and Google®, a cost-effective product with great utility should definitely be a matter of interest.
The Next Generation Sparkster Decentralized Cloud will use devices of miners on their network to harness cloud services at a very cheaper rate as compared to traditional cloud computing. With traditional cloud computing, increase in the number of nodes does not have an influence on operational cost. The average cost per operation remains unchanging. However, with the decentralized network, increase in nodes (economical) means a decrease in the cost per operation. This feature will make Sparkster achieve competitive over the others in the market. SPARK tokens will be the primary payment mode for institutions who wish to run software on the Sparkster Decentralized Cloud. A portion of these tokens earned will be distributed to participants in the Sparkster Decentralized Cloud.
Having made provisions for a better cloud computing services (than that of the traditional cloud computing), Sparkster goes a step further to introduce another interesting feature that allows novice (having no knowledge about computer programming) to develop smart software with plain language (English to be specific) by themselves via an intuitive interface with drag and drop capabilities. This innovation is proven to be 100x faster and cheaper than Traditional Software Development. There have been many software development methodologies like the spiral model, the waterfall, V-model etc. Using these methodologies requires the software engineer to gather, analyze and prepare a stable requirement via consistent interaction with user/client. Recent research works have exposed how these traditional software development life cycle can be time-consuming and its contribution to software project failure. On the Sparkster platform, all that you need is an idea and it will be transformed into a working software. Life in this technology age has become much simpler, thanks to this innovative idea by Sparkster.
The Sparkster platform aims to empower individuals to sell their ideas, find patrons and fans to help bring their dream into a reality. And also providing businesses with the tools to build the business process of the future that will assist them in achieving a competitive advantage. Security, privacy, architectural transparency etc. are issues that have been giving high priority in the Sparkster system.
