IPFS

Peer-to-peer hypermedia protocol for content addressing

About IPFS

IPFS is a peer-to-peer protocol that addresses content by its hash so files can be stored and served by a distributed network. It is typically installed on Linux servers or containers and administered through configuration files, a CLI, or a built-in web interface. Regular community releases, public issue trackers, and extensive documentation help new administrators get from a first install to daily use quickly.
