Cloud Data Decentralizer

Inspiration

One of the main reasons why blockchain technology receives so much attention is because of its "revolutionary" nature. It provides a useful method for the neighbourhood to come to an understanding about the ledger's current situation. Therefore, identifying organizations, processes, or systems that often need significant costs for obtaining consensus in the real world is crucial to the mainstream adoption of blockchain. You may simply reach consensus by mapping the entities, processes, and systems to the blockchain for developing new values.

What it does

Data is touted as new cloud and it is also an essentials fuel for the enhanced Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning. Enterprises these days have aligned themselves with various reliable, efficient and secure storage services for major cloud providers. Enterprises opt for multiple storage backup for site reliability and data redundancy to insure themselves again any unforeseen outage. On contrary they end up taking effort to duplicate their data and pay higher prices to provide reliable service to their customers.

How we built it

Profit margins for enterprise is a one of the most defining factors for the growth of the enterprise and their future ahead, this is where our solution acts as a accelerator to allow customer make sure of the features of the IPFS and save money while reliability and securely archiving their data on IPFS.

The InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) is a novel decentralised storage architecture that aims to provide decentralised cloud storage by leveraging P2P networking and content addressing. IPFS is utilised by over 230k peers per week and serves tens of millions of requests per day, making it an intriguing large-scale operational network to investigate. Although it is used as a building block in a number of projects and studies, its inner workings, properties, and implications have only been superficially investigated. Thus, we provide an overview of the IPFS architecture and its core characteristics, as well as the opportunities and challenges that its properties present. Overall, IPFS presents an intriguing set of characteristics and offers lessons that can aid in the development of future decentralised systems.

We provide a simple accelerator which can help the customer gauge the amount of savings they can have by moving their data step by step into the IPFS.

We have built our solution three key pillars - Security(powered by blockchain network), Reliability by Filecoin network and Ease of use(from CDD solution).

Challenges we ran into

There were various challenges to accomplish our goal but main challenge was to have an interface which would provide a intuitive user experience and abstract all the underlying complexity.
