The integration of these technologies enables the creation of decentralized, high-performance AI applications that can run seamlessly in a web browser. This architecture leverages the strengths of each component to provide a robust framework for AI development and deployment.
-
wasmCloud: A platform that facilitates the management and execution of WebAssembly components in a distributed environment. It provides a secure and efficient way to run applications across various infrastructures.
-
Tarmac: A framework for building serverless applications with WebAssembly, offering a function-based architecture that supports scalable deployment and execution of tasks.
-
ZenModel: A workflow programming framework in Go, designed for creating modular AI agents. It allows for the configuration of complex workflows using various deployment patterns, algorithms, and control strategies.
-
IPFS (InterPlanetary File System): A decentralized storage network that ensures the availability and integrity of application assets and models, eliminating reliance on centralized servers.
This architecture can be used to develop a wide range of AI applications, including but not limited to:
-
Decentralized AI Agents: Create intelligent agents that operate independently and interact with users or other agents in a decentralized manner.
-
Real-Time Data Processing: Deploy applications that require real-time data analysis and decision-making, leveraging the distributed nature of wasmCloud and IPFS.
-
IoT and Edge Computing: Implement AI solutions for IoT devices and edge computing environments, where low latency and decentralized processing are crucial.
The architecture consists of several key components:
-
WebAssembly Components: Executed by wasmCloud, these components encapsulate the AI logic and can be deployed across various environments.
-
Serverless Functions: Managed by Tarmac, these functions execute specific AI tasks and can be triggered by events or HTTP requests.
