# Overview Cerebrum is designed to be modular, scalable, and secure. It consists of several key components that work together seamlessly to deliver a robust AI agent platform. At the core of the system is a decentralized network of compute nodes that provide the processing power for deploying AI models which Agents will leverage. It consists of a set of nodes orchestrated by the control plane with proper resource utilization, ensuring security and allowing for fault tolerance. This architecture provides flexibility and extensibility so the platform is evolving at the speed with which emerging enterprise AI requirements demand. Because it's a modular architecture, upgrades and modifications to specific modules can occur independently of one another, so ongoing innovation is fostered and possible. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.cerebrum.dev/cerebrum/system-architecture/overview.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
