IPFS

IPFS is a protocol:

  • defines a content-addressed file system
  • coordinates content delivery
  • combines Kademlia + BitTorrent + Git

IPFS is a filesystem:

  • has directories and files
  • mountable filesystem (via FUSE)

IPFS is a web:

  • can be used to view documents like the web
  • files accessible via HTTP at https://ipfs.io/<path>
  • browsers or extensions can learn to use the ipfs:// URL or dweb:/ipfs/ URI schemes directly
  • hash-addressed content guarantees authenticity

IPFS is modular:

  • connection layer over any network protocol
  • routing layer
  • uses a routing layer DHT (kademlia/coral)
  • uses a path-based naming service
  • uses bittorrent-inspired block exchange

IPFS uses crypto:

  • cryptographic-hash content addressing
  • block-level deduplication
  • file integrity + versioning
  • filesystem-level encryption + signing support

IPFS is p2p:

  • worldwide peer-to-peer file transfers
  • completely decentralized architecture
  • no central point of failure

IPFS is a cdn:

  • add a file to the filesystem locally, and it's now available to the world
  • caching-friendly (content-hash naming)
  • bittorrent-based bandwidth distribution

IPFS has a name service:

  • IPNS, an SFS inspired name system
  • global namespace based on PKI
  • serves to build trust chains
  • compatible with other NSes
  • can map DNS, .onion, .bit, etc to IPNS
