The chapter delves into the concept of the Interplanetary File System (IPFS) and its use cases, emphasizing resilience and content accessibility. It discusses the balance between centralization and decentralization in IPFS, highlighting its advantages over traditional HTTP. The chapter also explores challenges like content removal, managing non-static data, and security considerations within the IPFS network.
The interplanetary filesystem, or IPFS, is a peer-to-peer network that uses a distributed and decentralized model. Functionally, IPFS allows users to store and share files without having to rely on a single source of truth for those files.
Matt Ober is the Co-Founder & CTO of Pinata. He joins the show to talk about IPFS and Pinata.
