How Decentralized Storage Works

The implementation of decentralized storage is divided into two parts, storage and chain. The storage part is already a relatively mature technology. Referring to BT, eMule and other technologies, taking into account reliability and performance, as well as resource consumption, it is sufficient to meet the demand. The key point is the chain. Expanded is why there must be a chain.


This is also an old-fashioned question, how to apply it when blockchain technology is used as a support. I firmly believe that decentralized storage is a very suitable and landing scenario.


What does blockchain bring to storage? Decentralization, credibility, privacy, controllability, and most importantly, incentive mechanisms. If I were to design a decentralized storage architecture, it might look like this.


Decentralized storage is very critical here. It will affect issues such as data security, ownership, and user privacy protection. . Therefore, we hope to have more decentralized features, rather than multi-center-so, this determines the realization of the consensus mechanism.

Credible, private. They are all built on the basis of decentralization, and cryptography considerations have been added. Now many people are talking about privacy protection, and even put forward the term "distributed privacy", how to realize it - blockchain.


CYFS has successfully realized the decentralized storage technology OOD through 6 years of research and development. Through OOD, users can upgrade their personal computers, mobile phones and other portable devices to decentralized storage servers. In this way, data control returns to the user, data security is more reliable, and user privacy is protected.
