Aleph offers Cloud Computing For DeFi & Web3.
It's not a blockchain, so it's safe from typical drawbacks in scaleability that for example, $FIL has. http://Aleph.im is blockchain agnostic - with support for Ethereum, Binance Chain, Nuls, Polkadot, Cosmos.

Lot's of these ecosystems are already using it. For example http://starname.me (Cosmos) are storing all their user profiles on aleph. @orion_protocol $ORN are also using aleph to store trading data, and many others.
They've also partnered up with @Ledger to create a decentralised identity solution that will allow Ledger users portable KYC & streamlined login processes. You can read more about that here: https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/356790 (this slipped under the radar)
The new website goes live soon, and so do the Core Channel network nodes. This will be focused at global aleph adoption. It'll cater to corporate node operators too, and there are already some signed on. These are very big businesses that will be announced soon

Aleph are also partnered with @ProjectSerum $SRM to decentralise the orderbooks. This is what we call "decentralising the last mile of DeFi"
