The Decentralized Cloud: How Blockchains Will Disrupt and Unseat Centralized Computing Series: Future Systems: The Rise of Decentralized Technology

For over a decade, the digital world has lived under the rule of cloud giants Amazon, Microsoft, and Google. But behind their dominance, a quiet revolution is unfolding. The Decentralized Cloud reveals how blockchain technology is reshaping the trillion-dollar cloud industry from the ground up.

Author Daniel W. Marshall traces the journey from the early days of centralized servers to the rise of blockchain-powered networks that distribute power, trust, and profit across the globe. This isn’t just a shift in technology it’s a reimagining of how the internet itself should work.

Explore how platforms like Internet Computer, Cudos, and Akash are breaking down the old order, solving problems of cost, privacy, and monopoly with open, collaborative infrastructure. Marshall blends technical insight with accessible storytelling, showing how decentralization is already redefining computing’s future.

He also takes a hard look at what’s ahead the regulatory hurdles, scalability limits, and complacency of the incumbents who risk being left behind.

The Decentralized Cloud is a guide for entrepreneurs, developers, and policymakers navigating this new frontier. The question it leaves you with: will the next cloud belong to everyone?
