The month of March was quite busy for @Ocean Protocol as it actively developed its technologies, focusing on integrating with popular developer tools, expanding AI partnerships and applying its solutions in scientific and decentralized computing.
Let's summarize a short summary of the month 🧐
--------------------------------
Partnership with Aethir: On March 13, 2025, Ocean Protocol announced a partnership with Aethir Cloud, a leader in decentralized cloud computing.
This partnership aims to provide AI developers with the resources to efficiently build, scale, and deploy AI models at low cost.
This is an important step to expand Ocean Protocol's AI capabilities.
--------------------------------
Ocean VS Code extension launch: on March 24, 2025, the Ocean VS Code extension was introduced, which integrates the free Compute-to-Data (C2D) feature directly into the Visual Studio Code development environment.
This update simplifies data-privacy tasks by eliminating the need to switch between different tools.
The alpha version of this extension was launched on March 25, and a live event on X was held on March 27 to discuss workflows and features of the tool.
--------------------------------
Compute-to-Data launch on BioProtocol: On March 27, 2025, it was announced that a project developed by ReflexDAO (a former Shipyard grantee) will launch on March 31 on the BioProtocol platform, using Ocean Protocol's Compute-to-Data infrastructure.
This initiative focuses on decentralized scientific discovery while preserving the confidentiality of the original data, emphasizing the application of Ocean Protocol technologies in the scientific domain.
--------------------------------
Focus on Edge Computing and C2D: On March 11, 2025, Ocean Protocol highlighted the benefits of its Compute-to-Data technology in the context of edge computing.
This solution enables computing directly where the data resides, which reduces latency, lowers bandwidth costs, and increases privacy.
