Some History
The history of storage and processing of data at the technological level is very interesting, due to its rapid development and increasing the capacity of bytes that new equipment can store and process.
Since 1956 when IBM built the first Hard Disk with a capacity of 5Mbytes with a size similar to two refrigerators, including the appearance of the first dynamic RAM chip, manufactured by Intel in 1970, which came to replace the drum memories (1950).
The processing and storage of data has evolved, for the better. With this, computers have improved their performance in such a way that the term "Supercomputers" can already be used.
A supercomputer is a computer with a high level of performance compared to a general-purpose computer. Performance of a supercomputer is measured in floating-point operations per second (FLOPS) instead of million instructions per second (MIPS). As of 2017, there are supercomputers which can perform up to nearly a hundred quadrillion FLOPS. (...) The supercomputers play an important role in the field of computational science, and are used for a wide range of computationally intensive tasks in various fields, including quantum mechanics, weather forecasting, climate research, oil and gas exploration, molecular modeling, and physical simulations.Throughout their history, they have been essential in the field of cryptanalysis.

The Problem
Although thanks to the evolution of technology, the size of the hardware has been reduced considerably, in addition to the storage capacity increased exponentially. There are a number of problems that arise for access to this technology and the speed of computation.
Continuous growth of the demand: more and more are "the ones and zeros" that are processed every day worldwide, the applications and programs are getting heavier, games, videos, Artificial Intelligence, VR, in short, users produce and consume more data continuously.
High costs: The hardware required to process so much data is very expensive, which is why storage and data processing service providers have very high fees.
Great Infrastructure is needed: Supercomputers need very spacious rooms with a controlled environment, guaranteeing security and with restricted access, and all this infrastructure also causes an increase in maintenance costs.
Exclusivity for large corporations: For all the above, only an exclusive and small circle of large organizations and corporations can have the economic and operational capacity to own these supercomputers, which makes a semi-monopoly, which governs the market of data storage and processing worldwide.
IAGON provides the solution

IAGON is a company that creates a platform in response to the problems described. Creating a truly decentralized Artificial Intelligence network, making available a high-end data storage and processing service. Doing this in a reliable, secure and scalable way. Where users who demand great computing power, or a large data storage space in the cloud can be satisfied. In addition to giving the opportunity to anyone who has storage space or processing power without using in their computers, to put it at the service of the largest supercomputers ever assembled, thanks to the use of the blockchain and the futuristic and intelligent IAGON technology.
The beginning:
This great project started when Dr. Navjit Dhaliwal (CEO) and Dr. Elad Harison (COO) developed a platform to protect patient data records using Blockchain technology, taking special care of these, for their confidentiality and privacy. After several meetings and considerations, they observed the potential of this idea not only to apply it to the medical field, but also for any company, organization and technological field.

Characteristics:
IAGON has a series of very special characteristics, which by assembling them you get a supercomputer of global reach and with a huge potential.
Artificial Intelligence (AI-Tracker): IAGON makes use of automatic learning algorithms, neural networks to secure, coordinate and manage its platform. Optimizing the allocation of resources by creating a smart computing network. AI-Tracker will also optimize itself to evolve and continuously improve its performance.
Integrated Applications: IAGON is an integral platform, which meets the needs of each type of user, for which a series of very specific decentralized applications have been developed.
BlockChain / Tangle: IAGON makes use of the best of Blockchain and Tangle technology to optimize its two work networks, the processing network and the storage network. In such a way that the more users are added to the network, the faster it is.
Storage Network and Processing Network (Smart Computing Grid): IAGON defines two networks, but they are not two platforms. IAGON integrates them to one another to form a true decentralized supercomputer. And the best thing is that thanks to Artificial Intelligence these networks are continuously optimized, managing in the best way the storage and data processing resources.
Benefits:
IAGON is presented as a supercomputer that brings benefits not only to companies and institutions, regardless of their size, but also to the common user and smaller technology developers who need storage and computing services.
Low Cost (Savings): for a company or a small user to have access to a traditional supercomputer, the costs of hardware, infrastructure, maintenance and operability are excessively high. IAGON makes available, from those who require it, this service to a higher performance and at an incredibly lower rate.
Opportunity to Generate Profits (Mining): you not only save money with the IAGON service, but you can also generate profits. If the user or company decides to incorporate their computing power or storage space to the IAGON platform, becoming a miner in our platform. Thanks to the use of our Proof of Utilitarian Work (PoUW) protocol, rewarding these miners for their contribution in the network.
Secure Storage: with IAGON our users will have access to a large space to store their data, but they will also do so reliably and securely. Thanks to the fact that IAGON works in a decentralized manner and using a military level file encryption (SHA256). Ensuring that no miner has access to a complete file.
High Level Data Processing available to all: Thanks to "Smart Computing Grid" the power of a supercomputer will not be exclusive of large corporations but will also be available to anyone and small businesses.
Partners and Initial Users
When a project has great potential, like IAGON. Many companies, large and small, want to associate, collaborate and even try first hand, the new innovation. Here, we list some of the privileged.

Personal Conclusions
In this time that artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly demanded, where video games, computer programs, the use of virtual reality (VR), and the need to save data in the cloud need more processing and storage capacity of data.
Until now only a few had access to the processing and storage power of a supercomputer. The equipment needed to build it is too expensive, large companies and government institutions were the only ones able to pay for such hardware. In addition to the operating costs of maintenance and infrastructure.
This is where IAGON comes into play, in response to these needs. IAGON presents a decentralized computer network that redefines the term "Supercomputer".
Allowing Artificial Intelligence to be available to all types of users, large and small. What is beneficial for everyone, because the technological advances will be exponential, because each person can develop their ideas using this network as a tool. Thanks to the use of the best of the blockchain and the tangle.
It also presents the ability to store a large amount of data in the cloud, in a super-secure way with high-level encryption protocols.
One of the things that for me is very special and important, is the opportunity to be able to belong to this powerful global computer network, and earn money along the way.
- The opportunity to participate, with the space not used in our hard drives.
- The opportunity to participate, with our computer capacity in standby, of our processors.
- The opportunity to revolutionize the cloud.
- The opportunity to be part of IAGON.
