4 4 1. Introduction A man of the 21st century lives in an insane rhythm and is forced to solve many difficult tasks as fast as possible. Not long ago it was impossible to fulfill them, but now, thanks to the development of the Internet and cloud technologies, the future becomes our reality. Today, the most urgent issue is the continuous access to modern resources that will facilitate and accelerate solutions of global problems, will allow them to be carried out worldwide and online. The answer to this question lies in the cloud computing, which is becoming more and more popular every day. Cloud computing is a model where all applications and their data are located on a remote server on the Internet and the user can access them from an ordinary PC or a tablet. Computers that carry out such operations are called a "computing cloud". There are two main types of a cloud - public and private. Public cloud is intended for free access of a wide audience while private is used by one organization that includes several consumers.

5 Tendencies and problems in the development of the world cloud computing market According to the American consulting firm Gartner in 2016 total expenses of users working in the cloud reached $209,2 billion, whereas in 2015 the number was $175 billion. Thus, users expenses increased by $35 billion within a year. Considering analysts' forecasts expenses for a cloud are to reach approximately $246,8 billion in 2017 and will have exceeded $380 billion by Such a high demand for these services is caused by an active transition of IT-industry data into cloud. Respectively, information technologies increasingly require high-performance resources to solve various tasks from artificial intelligence development to gaming, VR or analytics (Big Data analytics). Today more than 70% of cloud computing market is occupied by leading providers. Amazon Web Services takes the lead (around 34 ), much smaller share is taken by Microsoft (11%), IBM (8%), Google (5%) and others.

6 6 An average one hour rental of a computation node on the basis of eight NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics cards, two Intel Xeon E5 2680v4 processors, RAM 256Gb, SSD 960Gb (or their equivalent) offered by market leaders for European countries is: Company name Equipment 1 Amazon Web Services Station p2.8xlarge - 8 x GPU Nvideo Tesla K80, - vcpu 32 ядра (2.3 GHz Intel Xeon E v4 (Broadwell) processors or 2.4 GHz Intel Xeon E v3 (Haswell), - RAM 488Gb, - SSD 1Tb, - 10Gbit/s 2 Microsoft Azure Station NC24r - 8 x GPU Nvideo Tesla K80, - vcpu 24 ядра ( 2.4 GHz Intel Xeon E v3 (Haswell), - RAM 224GB, - SSD GB, - 10 Gbit/s 3 Google Cloud Custom configuration - 8 x GPU Nvideo Tesla K80, - vcpu 32 ядра processors or 2.4 GHz Intel Xeon E v3 (Haswell), - RAM 256Гб (up to 455 GB of RAM), - SSD space 3x375 GB, - 10 Gbit/s Price dollar/hour 10,6 10,26 6,5 * IBM provides computer rental services in a private cloud. Their cost is calculated individually. New market players cannot offer significantly lower prices, as they develop only software products - add-ins for combining of already existing computing resources - and do not have their own hardware.

7 Solutions In order to make the rent of computing capacities as accessible as possible in October 2016 we started working on the Boosteroid project. Our team consists of information technology and artificial intelligence professionals. Initially, we were involved in assembling computer nodes based on 6/8 NVIDIA graphics cards and Intel Xeon processors, which we used to conduct complex calculations in the field of artificial intelligence. To ensure that high-performance equipment does not stand idle, we leased it out and were engaged in crypto-currency mining. We gained our experience and found out that due to our own architecture and constant capacity utilization, the cost of cloud computing is significantly reduced. Therefore, we will be able to provide the service at a price much lower than offered by leading market players. Budget-friendly rent will make Boosteroid available to every user of the World Wide Web.

8 8 2. What is Boosteroid Boosteroid is a secure cloud services platform that provides convenient access to computing resources, storage, software products and other functionality. Our service will allow to abandon expensive personal computers in favor of a powerful computing "cloud" with a user-friendly interface and a simple management. A computer is able to carry out a variety of tasks in the "cloud" - from working with texts to analyzing DNA. Why us? Lowest rental price of computing resources. Thank to our own unique architecture and minimal costs of electricity our clients will be able to use computing resources at the lowest price. Opportunity to choose necessary computing power. A client will be able to choose the necessary computing power and change it just with several clicks. Unlimited rental time. For our customers we provide cloud computer rent for any time from one hour to several years. Safety. Users can be sure that all their data is secured and flawless operation of all systems is ensured. The information will always be secured and no one will be able to steal or withdraw it.

9 2.1. Boosteroid project implementation Technical implementation of the Boosteroid project consists of software and hardware parts. Hardware part will include a lot of heterogeneous computing systems, combined into a single high-speed infrastructure: - servers based on modern general-purpose Intel or AMD processors; - servers, which include NVIDIA or AMD graphics accelerators and graphics cards; - servers, which include Intel graphics accelerators; - high-speed switching equipment. Server architecture will be based on: - Intel Xeon E5, E7 v4 or 5 processors; - AMD EPYC 7000 series processors; - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics cards; - NVIDIA Tesla P, Tesla V and AMD Radeon Instinct graphics accelerators; - Intel Xeon Phi 7000 series accelerators. High Performance Computing Cloud Structure 9

10 10 A fault-tolerant, distributed, redundant storage system will be used in the Boosteroid project. Also, block-level stores are provided. In addition to the main data stores, a long-term storage with a large amount of memory will be built. 10Gb and Gb Ethernet switches will be used as communication equipment. They support the operation of the system infrastructure, high-speed computing network and data warehouse replication. Software part of the project will be based on the open source platform, which allows to provide a wide range of cloud services, such as computing, creating storages, databases and much more. A detailed project of creating computational power will be formed after the first ICO stage. We develop a user-friendly interface with fast and easy access to Boosteroid services for the convenience of working with the cloud. We are also planning to develop an application store, named BooStore, where you can buy or download apps for free. Then you can install these apps on your cloud PC Free 10% of Boosteroid capacities for AI-startups We intend to contribute to the future, so we will provide 10% of our capacities for artificial intelligence projects addressing the issues of aging. The implementation of these tasks requires a large computing capacity and it`s creation and lease today is extremely expensive. Criteria for selection of startups to be provided with our powers will be set after the first ICO stage.

11 3. Boosteroid tokens A total of 1 billion tokens was released and called BTR. BTR tokens are created on Ethereum blockchain-platform under the ERC20 token standard. There is no reissue of tokens after the financing is completed. Tokens accepted as a payment for services will become invalid. When our ICO is completed, all unsold and undistributed tokens will be destroyed BTR tokens distribution The structure of tokens` distribution is following: 11
