Abstract: A system for providing real-time cloud computing. The system includes a plurality of computing nodes, each node including a CPU, a memory, and a hard disk. The system includes a central intelligence manager for real-time assigning of tasks to the plurality of computing nodes. The central intelligence manager is configured to provide CPU scaling in parallel. The central intelligence manager is configured to provide a concurrent index. The central intelligence manager is configured to provide a multi-level cache. The central intelligence manager is configured to provide direct disk reads to the hard disks. The central intelligence manager is configured to utilize UDP for peer-to-peer communication between the computing nodes.
