According to official disclosures, on March 2, Akave, a decentralized enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure company, completed a $6.65 million funding round. This round of financing was participated in by Protocol Labs, No Limit Holdings, Blockchange, Lightshift, Blockchain Builders Fund, Big Brain Holdings, Avalanche Foundation, and Filecoin Foundation, among others.
Currently, the rapid expansion of AI infrastructure has led to a continuous increase in the scale of AI models. This, in turn, has increased training frequency and the growing demand for AI inference, directly driving up the demand for data storage and scheduling. To ensure data stability and security, many AI product developers often choose more traditional cloud service providers (such as AWS and Google Cloud) to store and manage their data.
It's important to emphasize that "cloud" is not just storage space, but a complete system including object storage, computing resources, and scheduling systems. In other words, when using cloud services, enterprises need to connect to subsequent computing, analysis, and training processes in addition to saving files. Taking the mainstream AWS (Amazon Web Services) as an example, user data is stored in Amazon S3 (Amazon Simple Storage Service, an object storage service provided by Amazon, hereinafter referred to as S3), while computing runs on EC2 (Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, a computing platform provided by Amazon), and AI training requires calling the SageMaker service (Amazon's data, analytics, and AI hub). This means that when enterprises perform computing tasks, they need to continuously pull data from S3, which is responsible for storage.
