Starcluster Phase 1: hyperscale from distributed star nodes (2025)
Akash Accelerate 2025 - Starcluster (Akash Network)
“We call it Akash Starcluster: a product roadmap that brings hyperscale performance to a globally distributed network. Phase one launches in 2025 — data center grade star nodes. These are high-density racks running in existing colo spaces, powered by renewable energy, operated by independent node keepers. They form the foundation, the raw power layer.” — 00:00:01
Context: Opening of the Starcluster announcement; VMs (Aug 2025) and confidential computing (Sep 2025) are named as the supporting releases for node keepers.
