Decentralized Software

The different available software for different devices is a set of rules that instruct the devices on what to do and how to do it. There are different types of software but the most noticeable ones are the application software, database software, word processing software etc. The decentralization of software is the allocation of resources on a workstation to that particular software for the processing of data by that particular software.

The decentralization of software is the allocation of resources on a workstation to that particular software for the processing of data by that particular software. 


In recent times, the different decentralized software has sprung up. Software like the blockchain, Bitcoin, Ethereum, stellar but to mention a few. What this software have in common is the peer-to-peer decentralized network which fosters for data sharing and storage.


For quite a number of reasons, the decentralization of software is being accepted over its centralized counterpart. These reasons may include;

1.    Efficiency: The efficiency of the decentralized software is preferable due to its decentralized and localized management

2.    Speed: The speed at which the decentralized software complete tasks is much faster as compared to the centralized software as they have their own allocated resources.

3.    Better control: Software is better controlled from their decentralized state rather than the centralized state of operation

4.    Relieve to the central server: With decentralize software, there is no need to hug server application as the decentralized servers have their own allocated resource on the different networks.

5.    Effective service: With the allocated resources, a decentralized software will operate at the optimal level of operation thus delivering the expected level of required output.
