Aethir, Filecoin Foundation Form Alliance for Enterprise-Grade Decentralized GPU Compute

Aethir, a project for decentralized GPU cloud computing, and Filecoin Foundation are establishing an alliance to provide clients with enterprise-grade solutions to support their businesses with decentralized infrastructure, according to a blog post: “As part of our collaboration with the Filecoin Foundation, Aethir will explore GPU leasing to Filecoin’s storage providers, thus providing Filecoin’s infrastructure network with a reliable and secure source of GPU cloud computing supplies. In parallel to becoming sealing-as-a-service providers, some of Filecoin’s storage providers can borrow GPU capacity from Aethir if they need excess processing power to seal data onto Filecoin’s network… Aethir’s vast network of 43,000+ top-grade GPUs and our premium selection of 3000+ NVIDIA H100s for advanced GPU workloads can provide a highly scalable and trustworthy solution for all Filecoin storage providers needing additional GPU resources.” From a press release: “Additionally, Aethir has integrated with Lighthouse, a platform built on Filecoin offering perpetual storage, encryption, custom gateways and multi-chain smart contracts. Aethir plans to upload AI and node-focused data to the Filecoin network, via Lighthouse. By archiving critical data sets such as TensorOpera Fox-1 to the Filecoin network, Aethir is ensuring transparency, accountability and robust audit trails for AI model governance. Moving forward, Aethir plans to expand its use of Filecoin storage solutions to archive chain state data, enhance data management capabilities, and drive the vision of a fully decentralized ecosystem with minimized operational costs.” CoinDesk 20 asset: (FIL)
