According to a new report by The Information, Google may be working on a streaming service for applications from the cloud. That is, users have access to Android applications and games from anywhere, without having to download and install on your device. Only an Internet connection would be necessary.
This would be a similar service already offered, for example, for NVIDIA, and called NVIDIA Grid, through which users can play games in the cloud, without having to download anything else. According to the source, this move by Google would be closely related to the purchase of Agawi, a company that is dedicated to just streaming services via the web. In addition, it is said that before this acquisition, Agawi have collaborated with NVIDIA in the aforementioned gaming service in the cloud.
Of course, it is clear that the resources to give life to this technology already exist, because through NVIDIA Grid can run intensive-graphics games (many triple A) and HD resolution perfectly, with the only requirement of a connection with 10 Mbps downstream, a router with 5 GHz band, and a good ping. In the case of Google, surely the requirements may be lower, because it makes sense that an Android app does not need more speed than games of that caliber.
A system of streaming applications by Google multiply the options for users, both when using apps like playtime. In addition, a key factor to consider is that any device, regardless of its power and other capabilities, could run all applications and games. In a streaming service in the cloud, the only important thing is the quality of the Internet connection.
