Until 1996, mathematical research on prime (huge) numbers was performed by supercomputers (mainly CDC or Cray). Beginning in 1996, as part of an international mission to examine the consolidation of computational resources and to examine the internet as a solution that would later create the "cloud," such numbers were discovered by thousands of home Pentium computers running the internet.
This global mission has demonstrated the ability that, thanks to fast communication, to consolidate the free computational resources of a large number of computers into one common process.
Today, the cloud that unites high-power server farms that are interconnected by broadband communication lines creates a sharing area of ​​computing resources that allow each application to use complex computational algorithms and create technological availability for the end customer.
Thanks to these capabilities, unique technology companies were born that specialize in writing the algorithms sold to the app companies according to usage (pay-as-you-go) and allow the app companies capabilities in the field of navigation, consumer behavior analysis, medical metrics analysis, sales comparison and more.
These technology companies store the algorithms in the cloud and allow any application development company to share the algorithm's computational capabilities in such a way that the end user of the application does not feel it at all in the process.
