INTERNET COMPUTER'S CLOUD ENGINES REPRESENT AN INFLECTION POINT... Founder of Internet Computer (DFINITY Foundation), Dominic Williams (dom | icp), while celebrating the protocol's five-year journey, provided a detailed preview of “Cloud Engines." Cloud Engines is the sovereign frontier cloud technology that the network will soon provide via opencloud(.)org. He stated that Cloud Engines will enable anyone to spin up their own tamperproof sovereign cloud by selecting and configuring nodes within the mathematically secure Internet Computer network. The founder emphasized that the technology is built specifically for the AI era, enabling AI agents to create and update online applications and services without the need for security teams or sysadmins. Additionally, software hosted on Cloud Engines is immune to infrastructure hacks, guaranteed to run as long as sufficient nodes remain operational, and protected by orthogonal persistence in the Motoko language, which automatically detects and prevents “lossy” AI-generated updates. He added that users will soon be able to develop and deploy apps directly from AI platforms such as Claude or Perplexity, with seamless integration through caffeine, while maintaining full tech sovereignty. Cloud Engines allow owners to choose node operators and locations, mix Big Tech instances (Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google), add sovereign AI nodes, and scale capacity instantly without downtime or vendor lock-in. In summary, Cloud Engines is an inflection point in the Internet Computer’s history.

Google just made every $50K master's degree look like a scam. They dropped "Google Skills" - 3,000+ AI courses from DeepMind, Cloud, and Google Education in one platform. And it's 100% FREE for Google Cloud users. The same content universities charge $60K for: - DeepMind's actual AI research training - 700+ hands-on labs with real cloud environments - Gemini Code Assist built INTO the learning - Direct hiring paths at 150+ companies While everyone's drowning in student debt, smart people are getting: ✓ Skills that actually get you hired ✓ Certificates employers recognize (82% hiring preference) ✓ Zero cost if you have Google Cloud ✓ Or $29/month vs $1,600/month for Udacity The kicker? 26 million people completed courses BEFORE this consolidation. You're competing against people learning AI from the team that BUILT Gemini. How to actually use this (not just browse): 1. Start with "AI Essentials" - no coding required 2. Use the hands-on labs (this is where 90% quit) 3. Get skill badges - they show up on LinkedIn 4. Target Google Cloud certification - top 2 highest paying IT certs 5. Join the 150-company hiring consortium The education industrial complex is panicking because anyone can now: → Learn from DeepMind researchers directly → Practice with $500 in free Cloud credits → Get hired without a degree One person's $60K tuition = 2,070 months of Google Skills. Let that sink in. Comment "SKILLS" and I'll send you: ✓ The exact learning path that gets you hired fastest ✓ Which certifications actually pay ✓ How to access everything free Your competition is still applying to universities. Time to eat their lunch.

Dear ICP community, the Internet Computer has now been running strong for 5 years 👏👏👏 Here is a celebratory preview of ICP "cloud engines," the sovereign frontier cloud technology the network shall soon provide from Main points: — Cloud engines enable anyone to spin up their own sovereign frontier cloud. The technology involves an extraordinary inventive step, in which cloud is created from a mathematically secure network of nodes. The nodes run as part of the Internet Computer network ( but are selected and configured by the cloud engine's owner. — The frontier cloud provided by engines is strongly focused on enabling AI agents to build and update online applications and services for us. The world is changing fast, and nearly all new online apps and services are already being built with the help of AI, and thus cloud engines target the future of cloud. — Software hosted on cloud engines is tamperproof, which means that it is immune to infrastructure hacks, because it runs inside a mathematically secure network protocol, rather than on computers directly. This means that AI agents, and those building with them, don't need to have a security team in the loop, or to trust someone else's security team. This is crucial, because in the future, non technical people will demand the freedom to build with full automation — where they just need to issue instructions to AI about what to build, and don't need to worry about anything or anyone else. Of course, apps and services running on engines are also vastly safer from the new breed of hacker being enabled by frontier AI. (The cloud engines themselves are also "tamperproof." Even if a hacker gains physical access to some portion of a cloud engine's nodes, and can make arbitrary changes, the computations and data of the hosted apps and services cannot be corrupted or interrupted so long as the network's fault bounds aren't exceeded. The recent hack of Vercel, a major cloud platform, which gave hackers access to the apps it hosted, provides additional perspective on the importance of this advantage.) — Software hosted on cloud engines is guaranteed to run, so long as a sufficient number of the engine's nodes are running. This means that AI can build applications and services without the need to have a human systems admin team constantly tinkering with the underlying platform to keep it running, which is again crucial, because in the future, non technical people will expect the freedom to use AI to build without the support of others. — New frontier programming language technology, in the form of the Motoko language developed by Caffeine Labs, leverages seminal "orthogonal persistence" technology that unifies program logic and data to deliver further unlocks for AI (Motoko is the first computer language being developed that targets agents that are writing software rather than humans engineers per se). Nowadays, AI can build and update production apps at a prodigious rate, even at the speed of conversation. But it can also make mistakes, and there's a risk that an update it creates might be "lossy" in the sense it causes some transformed data to be lost. Again, in this new world, it's both undesirable and impractical for everyone to have to have a systems admin team on-hand to detect lossy updates and roll them back, but Motoko provides a solution: it can detect new software updates are lossy before they are applied, reducing potentially catastrophic errors by AI to harmless coding retries. — Software hosted on cloud engines is "serverless" but unlike traditional serverless software, directly it directly incorporates data through "orthogonal persistence." Another key purpose is simplify backend software logic and fuel the modeling power of AI by increasing abstraction (sorry for the technical language!!!). Put simply, this enables AI to produce more sophisticated backends, faster, and at dramatically lower costs, as measured by the number AI API tokens consumed during coding. (Tip for the technical: orthogonal persistence is a new paradigm where "the program is the database," and data lives inside program variables, which is possible because it's as if hosted software runs forever in persistent memory). — An expanding database of skills at shall make it possible to develop and directly deploy apps and services to your cloud engines directly from Claude Code, Perplexity, Codex and other AI platforms. Further, your account on can be connected, so that new apps and updates created through conversation automatically appear hosted from your cloud engine. In the future, R&D is going to be very seamless. You converse with AI, and your secure and unstoppable apps or services are created or updated. Cloud engines are designed to directly support this "self-writing cloud" future where we can work hands-free. — Tech sovereignty is becoming a huge issue worldwide, with governments and corporations seeking to create sovereign tech stacks owing to geopolitical tensions. Increasingly, people are realizing that tech provided by foreign nations can come with hidden backdoors and kills switches, from the base platform, right up through hosted apps and services. ICP technology is open source, and those building on ICP using AI own their own source code. When you have the source code, you can verify that there are no backdoors, and when you own the source code thanks to AI, you can update it at will, freeing you from vendor lock-in. But cloud engines take sovereignty much further... — You create a cloud engine by selecting the nodes that will be combined. You can choose the class of nodes used, and their number, but more importantly, you can choose who operates the nodes, and where they are located. Almost any configuration is possible, because the Internet Computer scales the security privileges afforded to hosted software within the network according to configuration (software hosted on cloud engines can directly interoperate with software on other engines and traditional subnets, but base restrictions are applied according to security rules). A cloud engine can be created within a region such as Europe, to comply with regs such as GDPR, or completely within a sovereign state like Switzerland or Pakistan. But cloud engines go further still... — Sovereignty is also about freedom from vendor lock-in. Cloud engines are essentially ICP (Internet Computer Protocol) network configurations, and this means the underlying compute nodes they combine can be swapped out without interrupting their hosted apps and services. This is a big deal. In addition, cloud engines now support nodes that are instances running on Big Tech's clouds, in addition to nodes that are dedicated specialized hardware, as per the Gen I and Gen II nodes that dominate the Internet Computer today. For example, it is possible to have an engine running across different AWS data centers, say, and then reconfigure the engine to run across a mixture of AWS, Google, Azure and Hetzner for even more resilience, without the users of hosted apps and services noticing a thing. That's true freedom. — Sovereign AI is becoming increasingly important too, and cloud engines allow special "AI nodes" to be added to them, so that hosted software can perform inference on hardware provisioned by the owner from a location the owner has selected. Even though the AI nodes are only accessible within the cloud engine, they can still benefit from the forthcoming Internet Intelligence Gateway (IG), which will make it possible to validate inference performed on key frontier open weights LLMs, even when the inference is performed on completely independent AI clouds. When the results of inference are received, this technology can verify that neither the prompt+context (input) nor the inference result (output) have been modified, and that the results were produced by the precise LLM expected. This ensures that AI clouds don't cheat by running inference on cheaper models than are being paid for, and bad actors aren't modifying the inputs or outputs to surreptitiously insert advertising into results, say, or change facts, or insert malware when code is being generated. What's super cool about this technology is the cost of the verification is scalable. A very valuable additional security can be achieved with only 1-2% of extra cost. — Scaling apps and services when they hit capacity limits is another thorny problem that cloud engines help the world address. Engines make scaling possible without rewriting or reconfiguring software. The query workload capacity of hosted software can be horizontally scaled simply by adding new nodes to an engine, and nodes can also be added in geographical proximity to demand. Meanwhile, update workload capacity can first be scaled-up by swapping an engine's nodes out for the next class up, and then when no larger class of node is available, horizontally scaled-out by "splitting" the engine into two, which doubles available capacity. (Technical tip: horizontally scaling update capacity by splitting engines requires multi-canister architectures). — For those who have been following how Caffeine builds apps that can efficiently store large numbers of files, I should mention that apps built on cloud engines will also support the new ICP Blob Storage cloud network (since cloud engines currently have up to about 3 TB of memory, which apps storing large amounts of files can easily exceed). We are also working on allowing blob storage nodes to be added to cloud engines, to enable sovereign mass blob storage within an engine, similarly to how AI nodes can be added currently. — Lastly, but certainly not least, I should mention that cloud engines are multi-blockchain capable, and ready for digital assets, thanks to the clever math at their core. For example, an e-commerce service built on a cloud engine can securely accept and custody stablecoin payments, or a multi-chain DEX could be hosted. Further, engines can support software autonomy (software orchestrated and controlled by other autonomous software, in a decentralized way) and can themselves be orchestrated by SNS technology, and thus run autonomously too. Today, though, the focus is on *mainstream* cloud. This year, the cloud industry will generate approximately one trillion dollars in revenue. That number is already huge, but is expected to grow to two trillion dollars by 2030. After years of continuous development, which have seen more than $500m spent on R&D, the Internet Computer network is now tacking directly toward this mainstream cloud market with cloud engine technology. In their first version, cloud engines are not meant to be a cloud panacea. For example, currently they are not ideal for working with big data. You should use something like DataBricks for that. Cloud engines are carefully targeted at enabling AI to produce traditional online applications and services, including SaaS, in a safer and more productive way, which represents a new market segment with tremendous potential. Of course, DFINITY will continue to work relentlessly to push forward ICP's capabilities, so expect further developments. It's worth mentioning that this cloud segment isn't just about creating new apps and services using AI, it's also about replacing legacy systems and apps built on super expensive SaaS services. Caffeine Labs is working to produce technology (Caffeine Snorkel) that can study an enterprise's legacy systems and app built on SaaS, create replacement systems and apps, and migrate the data, while supporting key stakeholders through the process over email and chat, with full automation. Thus the legacy systems and SaaS markets shall also be addressed by cloud engines. Zooming out, and reasoning in a more metaphysical way, we believe, as we always have, that there is room for a new kind of cloud created by mathematical networks, that provides seminal advances in the fields of security and resilience, as well as true sovereignty and freedom from lock-in. That this same technology, with the help of additional technologies like orthogonal persistence and Motoko, enables AI to build for us without the need for so much oversight, and to create more backend sophistication while consuming fewer AI API tokens, enables ICP to bring game-changing advances to the world. Cloud engines will work synergistically with the Intelligence Gateway, which will enable apps and services running on engines to seamlessly leverage AI, wherever that AI is running, while providing verifiability at extremely low cost for open weights frontier models. We believe that cloud engines represent an inflection point in the storied history of the Internet Computer project, and I'm very proud to be sharing the details with you on the network's fifth birthday 💪 I'll be back with more news soon!!

How is CI/CD changing because of AI, and what are sensible deployment practices more teams should be doing? Robert Erez is a CI/CD expert, and also my former teammate at Skype. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 02:09 Canary deployments at Skype 05:01 Joining at Octopus Deploy 06:15 Continuous deployment 10:26 Why Kubernetes won 15:51 Kubernetes on-prem 18:50 How GitOps works 25:00 The uses and limitations of GitOps 31:04 The rise of platform teams 35:51 How AI is changing CI/CD 39:49 Progressive delivery explained 47:31 Rollbacks and roll-forwards 50:14 Feature flags 54:32 How development environments are evolving 57:40 Cloud development environments (CDEs) 1:03:45 Self-hosting CI/CD 1:09:25 Getting started with progressive delivery 1:11:15 Book recommendations Brought to you by: • Antithesis – verify your system’s correctness without human review or traditional integration tests – and avoid bugs or outages. • WorkOS – everything you need to make your app enterprise ready • turbopuffer – a vector and full-text search engine built on object storage. It’s fast, cheap, and extremely scalable. Three interesting thoughts from Rob: 1. Roll forward, never backwards. When a system has state – which typically means it uses databases – then doing a rollback can leave the code talking to a schema that’s no longer in sync. Rob’s advice is to not treat a failure in v2 as a trip back to v1, but rather as a push to v3 with the fix in it. 2. GitOps isn’t actually about Git. None of the four pillars of GitOps – 1) declarative, 2) versioned and immutable, 3) pulled, not pushed, 4) continuously reconciled – require Git, although Git can work under these constraints. Yet, the term ‘GitOps’ has made the industry dogmatic about cramming everything into a repo – even things like secrets that absolutely shouldn’t be there! 3. There’s a trend of ephemeral environments replacing test/staging environments across the industry. Companies used to have a few testers fighting over a handful of static test environments, but today, it’s trivial to spin up a full environment, per-feature branch, pre-merge. This is an “ephemeral” environment for evaluating that things work, which is then torn down once something is merged. It helps speed up the feedback process.

This is part 2 of a 2 part post (see part 1 here Below is a structured analysis to demonstrate the validity of using buyers of Veritaseum #SmartMetal to buy into and sell compute from globally aggregated cell phone compute pools - directly compeiting with the big guys - Google, Amazon and Microsoft cloud businesses. We discuss estimates, business model propositions, and potential economic outcomes, but first, see my Executive Global Article on Zero Profit Models( and purchase Veritaseum SmartMetal here - Can you really disintermediate the most profitable revnues of t $6.7 trillion worth of technology cloud providers? Well, the fact that it is among, if not the, most profitable of their revenue drivers is a very material clue! Step 1: Estimating the Number of High-End Smartphones Globally As of early 2025, approximately 7.5 billion smartphones are actively used worldwide. Considering that: About 30% of global smartphones are high-end (comparable or superior to an iPhone X; for instance, Samsung Galaxy S22/S23 Ultra, iPhone 16 Pro Max with A18 chips, and Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 or newer). Thus, approximately 2.25 billion high-end smartphones exist today (30% of 7.5B). Step 2: Aggregate Compute Power Estimation (Idle Capacity) Average Computational Capacity per High-End Smartphone: A high-end phone has roughly: CPU: ~1 to 1.5 TFLOPS GPU: ~1.5 to 2 TFLOPS Average Idle Compute per Phone: 1 TFLOPS (CPU) + 1.5 TFLOPS (GPU) = ~2.5 TFLOPS idle. Total Potential Compute Power: 2.25B smartphones × 2.5 TFLOPS each ≈ 5,625,000,000 TFLOPS (5.625 ExaFLOPS) Comparison to Cloud Vendors: Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud combined currently deploy approximately ~1 to 2 ExaFLOPS of continuous computing power. Thus, aggregate idle compute power from high-end smartphones (5.625 ExaFLOPS) exceeds the largest cloud vendors combined by at least 2.8x. Step 3: Proposed Business Model ("Zero Margin Trustless Model") Following Middleton’s economic principles, a decentralized marketplace based on his IP (SmartMetal Rounds and patented protocols) would allow individual users to rent their smartphones’ idle compute power. The economics would follow: Revenue Structure: Compute resources provided by phone owners (children, elderly, economically disadvantaged communities) rented to consumers (AI firms, universities, research institutions, enterprises). Offered at 10% above net cost ("as close to free as possible" per the attached article​Executive Global articl…). Revenue Distribution: SmartMetal Owners (phone owners): Receive 20% of net revenue generated. Platform Cost & Overhead: Costs for electricity, network management, and maintenance (approximately 70% of net revenue). Intellectual Property Licensing (Middleton’s IP): A modest licensing fee—around 10% (aligned with Middleton’s zero-margin, IP-licensing-centric model). Step 4: Revenue Estimation Example Assumptions: Average monthly idle compute contribution per phone: 4 hours/day, 30 days = 120 hours/month. Market price for decentralized high-performance computing: approximately $0.10 per TFLOP-hour. Revenue per Smartphone per Month: Compute provided: 2.5 TFLOPS × 120 hrs = 300 TFLOP-hours Revenue at $0.10 per TFLOP-hour: 300 × $0.10 = $30/month per smartphone Aggregate Monthly and Annual Revenue: Monthly revenue (2.25 billion phones): $30 × 2.25B ≈ $67.5 billion Annual revenue potential: $67.5B × 12 months = $810 billion annually Distribution of Annual Revenue: SmartMetal Round Owners (20%): $810B × 20% ≈ $162 billion/year Operational Cost (70%): $810B × 70% ≈ $567 billion/year Middleton IP Licensing (10%): $810B × 10% ≈ $81 billion/year Thus, the total economic benefit is substantial, particularly transformative for economically disadvantaged participants (children, elderly, developing regions). Step 5: Practical Impact & Social Value Impact on Children & Young Adults: Empowerment through earning potential (around $360 annually per child smartphone owner). Practical, intuitive introduction to economics, technology, and entrepreneurship through gamified interfaces and secure, decentralized platforms. Impact on Elderly and Economically Disadvantaged Communities: Significant supplemental income (potentially exceeding many pension plans or assistance programs). Bridging the technology gap, ensuring inclusive participation in global digital economies. Step 6: Strategic Value & Market Positioning Middleton's patented Zero Margin Trustless Model ("ZMTM")​Executive Global articl… creates a highly attractive, low-cost computational offering. Competing directly with incumbent cloud providers: The computational marketplace can massively disrupt cloud computing with lower fees and broader global reach. Leveraging Middleton’s IP and SmartMetal Rounds, it creates defensible competitive barriers and immense value for early adopters. Step 7: Driving Middleton’s Peer-to-Peer Economy As described in Middleton’s vision​Executive Global articl…, this marketplace underpins a global peer-to-peer economy, transforming idle smartphone resources into meaningful economic output. The P2P economy will leverage: AI-driven autonomous economic agents. Secure blockchain-based IP rights enforcement. Economic democratization by redistributing traditional cloud revenues directly to everyday device owners. Summary & Strategic Conclusion Implementing a decentralized compute platform powered by high-end smartphones and Middleton’s patented Zero Margin Trustless Model presents enormous economic potential, far exceeding current major cloud vendors combined. With annual revenues estimated up to $810 billion, and meaningful income distribution to disadvantaged demographics, this innovative model could dramatically reshape the global computational economy, achieve significant social impacts, and provide the backbone for Middleton’s envisioned peer-to-peer decentralized economy.
