Selection, Design and Implementation of Decentralized Infrastructure

Abstract

Decentralized infrastructure involves approaches, technologies and systems that are selected based on project goals and requirements under a specific set of circumstances. For a particular project, one or more decentralized systems can be configured from compatible approaches and technologies. System design and implementation needs to satisfy technical and deploy- ment viability and sustainability requirements. Management is essential to successful deployment of decentralized systems. This chapter describes how decentralized systems can be selected, designed, and implemented to achieve project goals and satisfy requirements in a sustainable fashion.
