Can Cloud Computing Be Truly Federated?
InfoWorld, Tuesday, December 5,2023
With the rising costs of the cloud and the availability of connected computing and storage resources, we could see colossal cloud brands that don't own data centers.
Reporters often call me about whatever newfangled buzzword is out there and what it means to the typical enterprise. Recently, I've been questioned about the fediverse.
The fediverse is a decentralized social network of independent servers that can communicate with each other. Are you sitting down? The term combines the words federated and universe. Clever. The concept is nothing new or unique, but the buzzword is. I've seen these types of architecture come and go over the years.
