In the context of "counting from east to west" and "new infrastructure", Filecoin is a valuable storage.
In order to accelerate the green and high-quality development of data centers and build a national computing power hub system, the National Development and Reform Commission and relevant departments have researched and formulated the "National Integrated Big Data Center Collaborative Innovation System Computing Power Hub Implementation Plan").
Under the background of the national hub nodes of the national distribution of computing power network and the implementation of "counting from east to west" and "new infrastructure", it mainly includes three aspects: information infrastructure, fusion infrastructure and innovation infrastructure.
1) Information infrastructure. Communication network technology facilities represented by 5G, Internet of Things, Industrial Internet, and Satellite Internet; new technology infrastructure represented by artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and blockchain; computing power represented by data centers and intelligent computing centers infrastructure etc.
2) Converged infrastructure.
3) Innovation infrastructure.
With the advent of the era of data economy, blockchain, as the source of technology, will lead the wave of the fourth generation of technological revolution. Distributed ledger technology has exploded the demand for information storage, and distributed storage will become the infrastructure of the digital economy.
IPFS changes the way people communicate with computer networks When is Filecoin used?
The Filecoin network ensures secure storage of data. However, the process of storing, verifying, and unsealing (referred to as sealing, attesting, and retrieving, respectively) is computationally expensive and can take time.
This is especially important for data retrieval, which should be as fast as possible.
For this reason, Filecoin enables an additional retrieval market where dedicated nodes can help quickly transfer content from the network for payment by keeping an unsealed cached copy. This delivery mechanism will likely use IPFS, but is still in design.
In short: IPFS addresses and moves content, while Filecoin is the incentive layer for persistent data.
Specifically, Filecoin is designed to add long-term durability to securely store large amounts of data, while IPFS is optimized for fast retrieval and distribution of content.
Why IPFS - Filecoin's storage network is the most promising innovation in the crypto industry!
Filecoin is a decentralized data storage protocol and the only underlying incentive protocol for IPFS. Unlike other blockchains, it allows anyone to rent out idle storage space on their computers, and anyone can buy storage space on the Filecoin network.
This makes the Filecoin network a gigantic data warehouse - which is why everyone thinks it's the biggest innovation in crypto to date.
The Filecoin network has huge potential for large tech companies.
Today, the market is dominated by large software companies. Filecoin offers developer application builders cheaper storage options in a very secure, unique format. This is very applicable, especially considering the amount of data that needs to be stored.
Why does the Internet in the future need IPFS/Filecoin?
IPFS technology
IPFS and blockchain are a perfect combination. We can use IPFS to handle large amounts of data, putting immutable and permanent IPFS links into blockchain transactions without putting the data itself into the blockchain. After all, the essence of the blockchain is a distributed ledger, and one of its bottlenecks is the storage capacity of the ledger.
Currently, the biggest problem with most public chains is that they cannot store large amounts of data on their own chains.
decentralized storage
As can be seen from the above, IPFS distributed storage technology is faster, safer and lower storage cost than traditional HTTP centralized storage technology.
And as time goes by, more and more companies or enterprises use IPFS distributed storage technology, it will only be faster, safer, and cheaper. Therefore, with the advent of the 5G era, data explosion, IPFS distribution Systematic storage technology will replace the current centralized storage technology in the future.
Filecoin promotes the development of IPFS through the mechanism of economic subsidies, and the Filecoin network also needs ecological support for the development of IPFS.
