- Spheron’s early adopters RapidNode and SuperNoderz are migrating more than 10,000 blockchain nodes to Fluence’s infrastructure.
- Fluence’s solution is up to 75% cheaper than traditional cloud platforms like AWS, and Google Cloud.
Fluence is taking a bold step forward in the Web3 computing landscape with the launch of its Cloudless Virtual Machines. The move, fueled by partnerships with early adopters RapidNode and Spheron’s SuperNoderz, aims to redefine how decentralized applications and blockchain ecosystems work.
Fluence is challenging cloud giants like AWS and Google in the Web3 and AI space
Traditional cloud-based infrastructure, dominated by providers such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, has long been the foundation of Web2 and Web3 operations. anyway, these centralized services have significant drawbacks—costly vendor lock-in, opaque service provability, and inflexibility for emerging technologies. Fluence’s Cloudless VMs present a disruptive alternative: a decentralized, open, and cheap computing platform.
With more than 10,000 blockchain nodes set to migrate its infrastructure through RapidNode and SuperNoderz, Fluence signals its readiness to challenge the dominance of legacy cloud providers.
According to Fluence Co-founder Tom Trowbridge“Around 90% of blockchain protocol nodes and validators are hosted in centralized clouds. For Web3 to truly embrace decentralization, its infrastructure must follow suit. Fluence’s Cloudless VMs make that vision achievable.”
The Early Adopters
RapidNode and SuperNoderz are leading this shift.
RapidNodea code-free platform for validators and node operators, supports over 1.5 million node runners managing $150 billion in assets. The partnership enables RapidNode to leverage Fluence’s infrastructure for cost-effective and secure node deployment, enhancing their one-click solutions for blockchain participants.
SuperNoderz by Spheron focused on scaling Web3 computing requirements. Prashant Maurya, a key contributor to SuperNoderz, emphasized the importance of Fluence’s decentralized infrastructure in boosting computational power for next-generation applications.
Why Fluency Matters
Fluence has continued to build momentum since it was founded in 2017 by Dmitry Kurinskiy, Evgeny Ponomarev, and Tom Trowbridge.
With $14 million in support from prominent investors such as 1KX, Multicoin, and Protocol Labsthe company has established itself as a major player in the decentralized computing space.
Its Cloudless VMs stand out by offering:
- Cost Savings: Up to 75% cheaper than traditional cloud solutions.
- Affordability: Verification of services ensures that clients receive what they pay for.
- Resilient Infrastructure: Built on professional-grade hardware hosted in top-tier data centers, avoiding the pitfalls of consumer-grade networks.
The Cloudless VM Alpha Testing Program
The Cloudless VM Alpha Testing Program is Fluence’s call to developers, node providers, and architects to explore the possibilities of decentralized computing. Participants will have early access to the platform and receive $FLT cloud credits, along with priority access to future developments.
Fluence’s strategy closely aligns with the growing demand for decentralized solutions in industries beyond blockchain, including AI, biotech, and sports.
“The Fluence VM Program is best suited for those building the next big thing in Web3, AI, databases, or decentralized applications,” the company noted in a press release shared with AlexaBlockchain.
By addressing the long-standing limitations of traditional cloud services, Fluence lays the groundwork for a decentralized internet infrastructure.
Led by RapidNode and SuperNoderz, the Web3 ecosystem is moving towards decentralization as a practical reality. Count Tanishq Mehta, Founder of RapidNodesimply put, “Fluence’s infrastructure allows us to bring decentralized hosting to our users at minimal cost, bypassing legacy cloud platforms that aren’t well-suited to Web3 nodes.”
As the Web3 revolution accelerates, Fluence aims to position itself as the foundation upon which decentralized applications can thrive.
