awesome-golem VS node

If you want to run scientific calculations or similar, I highly recommend Golem. Right now, its best applications are ones that can scale by sharding, to use parallel computations. Think doing 100 similar small jobs on 100 computers instead of 1 large job on 1 computer. One average CPU-month costs $3.17, or you can rent 100 CPU-hours for $0.44. Notable examples are blender_cuda which runs on a GPU, and the entirety of awesome-golem.

Adding the repository to the awesome-golem repository. Doing this makes it possible to scout a neat and organized list of projects, without having to do much digging. There are categories that help go through the list quickly, for those that are looking for something specific.

There are lots of use cases on Golem. Many of which were created by the community. You can keep track of them relatively easily on Awesome Golem (all the applications on that list were created within the last year, for the latest implementation, Yagna).

Golem as a project is larger than it's ever been, there's an awesome list of community created apps and tools, the network has more nodes this year than it has before (stats), there's been over 300k GNT / GLM given out to the community in the GLM Rewards Program, not including bounties and hackathons in the last year (48,000 GLM + 83,180 USDC).

The Golem ecosystem is growing steadily (here’s our Awesome list in case you missed it, recently listed on the overall Awesome repository with over 160k stars!)

There are actually already quite a few things you can do with Golem already before Thorg. It's part of the reason why Awesome Golem, containing all the useful stuffs is already listed on the overall Awesome repo which is the 8th highest starred repo on GitHub.

It's also much easier to build applications on the new network as a potential requestor. We have a lot of community-created apps that people can run and/or learn from. There are also tools that are community-created which never existed around Clay Golem. You can find most of them listed here on Awesome Golem.

Run AutoGPT on the Akash Network in just a few clicks...Akash is similar to Vercel and Railway but uses decentralized Kubernetes clusters provisioned by their Cosmos based blockchain.

In what way is this different from Jackal Protocol or Akash Network?

Meh, I'm way more into Interoperability, and overall "WEB3" which includes AI I suppose. But I know how much GPU ChatGPT needs to operate, so im betting on AKASH cloud hosting to fuel decentralized AI. Which is interoperable alongside FET thanks to the COSMOS IBC / CosmWasm.

My take is that it's a platform that people may build some really spectacular applications on and some really terrible ones. A well designed layer on top of Cosmos seems like it could work well and there is some developer community there building cool stuff. The only time I used it was to get some money on it and play around with Akash Network about a year ago, and the UX on their main wallet was much smoother than using Ethereum/ Metamask for me.

I'm considering using Akash network for hosting, but https://akash.network/ doesn't give me any hint whatsoever about what kind of cost to expect. I understand it's a marketplace, thus there's no such thing as a pricing table. But I need to get some idea about ballpark numbers before investing any time trying it out. Is there something you could link me to which helps form an understanding of typical costs for running stuff on Akash?

This was possible thanks to the high level of programmable privacy offered by Secret and the unstoppable cloud infrastructure provided by Akash.

Like … renting server host for any Docker Image?? Such as Minecraft Servers, websites, or anything you can make yourself?

On Akash, you can rent servers from a P2P marketplace to host, for example, a Minecraft Server, your own dockerized project (e.g. a NodeJS project) or one of dozens free-to-use useful examples. Look into other utility tokens too for storage, VPN, networking, smart contracts, and more.
