Introducing Gas Files as the future of file storage

in cryptocurrency •  7 years ago 

Gas Files has set to tackle the problems associated with digital file storage head on. Utilizing IPFS and our own private Ethereum Blockchain, Gas Files enables anyone around the world to store any number of files of any size without limits or security concerns.

This new architecture will deliver enhanced scalability, security and resilience.

  • Scalability
    we will be able to scale into the Exabyte range and satisfy the storage needs of our users regardless of their storage requirements.

  • Security
    the new architecture will be decentralized, therefore eliminating security threats.

  • Resilience
    nodes will better communicate with each other if they go offline, ensuring users maintain access to their data.

The Gas Files decentralized storage network will combine our own private Ethereum Blockchain with IPFS (InterPlane tary File System) to safely secure shards of encrypted files on our secure network. A breakdown of the functions:

  1. Login to Gas Files Platform using unique identifier
  2. Upload files
  3. Files are encrypted
  4. Encrypted files are split into shards
  5. Audit pre-processing is performed for each shards
  6. Shards may be transmitted to the network.

Once submitted to the network they are stored securely on the Gas Files Blockchain.

The Problem
The problems with digital storage/cloud storage are,but not limited to:

  1. Size limitations
  2. Privacy
  3. Security
  4. Cost

The Solution
Gas Files solves all of the outlined problems.
There are simply no limitations of size or quantity with Gas Files and our platform focuses on privacy and security utilizing the strengths of modern Blockchain technology. Not having to rely on external servers or rent out space from other peoples machines we have very few over heads which mean huge price reductions for our customers.

Digital File Storage Security
Digital File Storage has become one of the fastest growing and most lucrative industries in the world today. However, digital file storage in its current form has many limitations and therefore very expensive. There are also various security concerns. A photographer or videographer who turnover 200gb+ files per day cannot store all their files securely on current cloud storage platforms. The time is now for Gas Files to change the industry forever!

How it works

The Gas Files platform is very simple. A user will sign up to the platform with a secure identifier with 2FA (2-factor authorization) much like you would at blockchain.com. The usernow has access to the private Blockchain. The user can now select a file or multiple files simultaneously and upload. The actual file does not get uploaded to a server. At this point,the file is converted into a line of code and that data is safely stored on the Blockchain. This Blockchain is private!
No-one else can convert your files or download it. If you have your settings set to private they will not even be able to see the file. You can share selected files at any time just by selecting the files and adding the people you wish to send them to. This will be instant and work like a crypto transaction. In this case,the users you send the files to will be able to access the file in the same way you can. To download a file from the private Blockchain it’sassimple as uploading it on
the Blockchain. You simply choose the files (one or multiple) and select where you wish to save/download the file. The file/s is then converted and saved to your selected location.
