Aethir Cloud is a decentralized platform that brings together providers and consumers of computational processing services, focusing on applications with computation intensity based on GPU hardware. It aims to be a broker of GPUs for users.
İçindekiler
On the GPU computing supply side, Aethir Cloud consists of a network created by businesses, data centers, miners, and retail GPU providers. On the GPU computing demand side, Aethir targets the corporate segments of the following sectors:
- Artificial intelligence training
- Artificial intelligence inference
- Gaming and virtualized devices (primarily phones)
How Does It Work?
One of the key innovations that allows Aethir to address corporate markets is resource pooling; distributed contributors are collected under a unified interface to serve large-scale customers globally. A significant result of resource pooling is that GPU providers can freely connect to and disconnect from the network, enabling data centers with idle hardware to join the network in their downtime. This flexibility leads to higher usage rates for GPU providers while enabling Aethir to offer lower prices to consumers.
At the core of Aethir’s ecosystem are three central backend infrastructure pieces that are crucial for transactions:
- Containers: The container is where the actual usage of the cloud occurs. It acts as a virtual endpoint, runs the application, and processes tasks.
- Controllers: The controller ensures the integrity and performance of Containers within the Aethir network. Verifying container specifications provided by Container Providers is important to maintain the network’s Quality of Service (QoS).
- Indexers: Indexers at the core of Aethir’s network enable quick startup of cloud-based applications and services by matching consumers with appropriate containers.
These three fundamental elements work together to ensure the smooth operation of Aethir’s ecosystem.
Investors and Partners
On the investment side, Aethir managed to raise $9 million from a variety of risk capitalists and family offices, including Animoca, Maelstorm Fund, IVC, Framework, Sanctor Capital, and Merit Circle. This investment demonstrates these organizations’ trust in the vision to transform the field of cloud computing.
Aethir has established partnerships with significant companies in the industries it operates in:
- Partnership with Nvidia through the Inception Program
- Partnership with some of the world’s largest telecom companies like Well Link and other significant players in the telecommunications field
- Partnership with leading game studios, including the world’s largest game studio,
- Partnership with prominent web3 players like Arbitrum, Impossible Finance, Gam3s.gg and Seedify on deployment
Roadmap
Aethir’s roadmap prioritizes rapid advancements in its four fundamental areas of focus in the future:
- Platform Development: Aethir will expand hardware support and enhance the platform’s token economy in upcoming developments. The roadmap also anticipates reducing the centralization of critical roles like controllers and indexers and extending as a GPU Service (GPUaaS) together with Software as a Service (SaaS) applications.
- Aethir Air: In the field of cloud games, Aethir has focused on enhancing the gaming experience for both users and developers.
- Cloud Smartphone Services: Advancements in this sector aim at creating an unlimited Platform as a Service (PaaS) for Cloud Smartphones, focused on user security and privacy.
Why Choose It?
- Pricing and Cost: Central providers offer high prices with complex pricing structures, especially for instant usage. Decentralized platforms like Aethir and DePin aim to reduce this complexity and provide more cost-effective options for users by offering more transparent and simple pricing structures.
- Service Availability: Service availability for specific machine types may not be fully completed, making it difficult to scale services that meet corporate-level or intense computation demands. Decentralized platforms like Aethir and DePin aim to overcome this difficulty by offering a more flexible approach to providing service across a variety of machine types.
- Service Scalability: Scaling centralized structures require substantial upfront costs. Decentralized platforms like Aethir and DePin offer a more flexible model to enhance scalability.
- Infrastructure and Integration Limitations: Some services may require connecting GPUs to specific standardized virtual machines from different providers, potentially leading to ineffective setups. Decentralized platforms like Aethir and DePin aim to integrate and utilize resources and services from different providers more flexibly and respond better to user needs.
- Limited GPU Options and Specializations: Many providers are highly specialized and offer limited GPU models and configurations, which means that the offer may not be suitable when flexibility is needed. Decentralized platforms like Aethir and DePin aim to overcome this difficulty by offering users a broader range of GPU choices.

What is ATH?
The ATH Token plays a central role in Aethir’s ecosystem. Used as the primary currency for transactions within Aethir, $ATH facilitates payments for artificial intelligence applications, cloud gaming, and virtualized computing.
Moving towards the DAO, the ATH tokens give owners the opportunity to propose, discuss, and vote on changes, emphasizing Aethir’s commitment to decentralization.
New node operators invest in ATH tokens to join the ecosystem, aligning their economic interests with Aethir’s objectives and demonstrating their commitment to quality service.
Deposited ATH tokens serve as collateral against abuse and have the potential to punish in case of bad practices, ensuring a high-quality, reliable cloud experience for users.
