Decentralized Computing
Decentralized computing refers to a system where computing resources and data are distributed across multiple locations rather than being controlled by a single central server. This approach enhances security, reduces the risk of a single point of failure, and allows for greater scalability. Users can access and share resources more freely, promoting collaboration and innovation.
In decentralized computing, technologies like blockchain and peer-to-peer networks play a crucial role. These technologies enable users to connect directly with one another, facilitating transactions and data sharing without intermediaries. This model is increasingly popular in applications such as cryptocurrencies and distributed applications (dApps).
