Eliminate silos with the web3.storage platform. Using IPFS and other decentralized protocols, create a true data layer that connects you, your users, and the Web, regardless of where content is stored - client-side, in the cloud, or elsewhere. Sounds hard? It isn’t. Our client libraries are super easy-to-use, abstracting the complexity of these decentralized protocols. And we provide services like data storage designed to natively support these protocols, so things just work without you ever being locked-in.Web3.storage's API is centralized in the sense that it is operated by a centralized organization, the DAG Labs, and it is hosted on servers controlled by the organization. However, the API facilitates the storage and retrieval of data on a decentralized network, the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), and it utilizes the Filecoin network for decentralized storage. So, while the API itself is centralized, the data being stored is distributed and decentralized.
Decentralization
Web3.storage will not work without centralized DNS.
It will not work without central servers.
User accounts are not in the user's control. They're controlled by the service provider. An uncensorable and unstoppable monetization system is NOT supported.
