Thoughts on the outage today 🧵:

Decentralization has always been extremely important—and critical. Back in 2018, a major AWS outage shut down banks and other services, highlighting the vulnerability of centralized systems. That same period saw the introduction of Filecoin (built on IPFS) to address decentralized storage needs. However, the broader industry of decentralized cloud services hasn’t seen much consolidation: yes, decentralized databases and compute platforms emerged, but no one has yet fully integrated storage, compute, networking, and database into a unified decentralized cloud.

We need to move toward a truly decentralized cloud!

That’s why I’m thrilled to announce that

 I’ll be touching some grass —since everything is down 🎉

Decentralization is indeed vital for resilience in today's digital landscape. It's exciting to see the push for a unified decentralized cloud. Enjoy your time reconnecting with nature while the systems are down!
