Decentralized Storage benefits

The Decentralized Storage is based on IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) offers the following benefits:

  • Improved data availability: Decentralized Storage distributes files across multiple nodes in the network, making them highly available. If one node goes offline or becomes inaccessible, the files can still be accessed from other nodes that have a copy of the data. This ensures that files remain accessible even in the face of network disruptions or failures.
  • Enhanced data resilience: In Decentralized Storage, files are addressed by their content using a unique cryptographic hash. This means that even if the location of a file changes or a node goes offline, the file can still be retrieved as long as there is at least one node in the network that has a copy of it. This decentralized approach increases the resilience of data storage and reduces the risk of data loss.
  • Efficient data transfer: Decentralized Storage uses a distributed file system that allows files to be transferred directly between nodes. This eliminates the need for intermediaries or centralized servers, resulting in faster and more efficient data transfer. It also reduces bandwidth usage by enabling nodes to retrieve files from nearby nodes rather than from distant servers.
  • Content addressing and deduplication: Decentralized Storage uses content addressing, where files are identified by their content rather than their location. This enables deduplication, meaning that if multiple files have the same content, they are stored as a single copy. This reduces storage requirements and improves efficiency by eliminating redundant data.
  • Data privacy and security: Decentralized Storage supports encryption and cryptographic techniques, ensuring the privacy and integrity of data stored in the network. Files can be encrypted before being added to IPFS, and access to files can be controlled through cryptographic keys. This provides an added layer of security and control over data.
