Blockchain-efficient, Web3-consistent deployment

Choose the state of your data

You know the use case for your files better than anyone. Immutable data is stored forever and is locked to prevent editing. Choose mutability for temporary data storage needs, data that needs to be changed over time, or both. Your data, your choice! Utilizing consensus-driven distributed ledger technology, shdwDrive takes storing your data to the next level.

Use cases

Web hosting & content management

Managing static content at high volumes that can elastically scale with your needs makes shdwDrive a great solution for web content, media, images, and other unstructured data types.

Archival & back-up

By 3x replicating and erasure coding encrypted records across a decentralized network, shdwDrive can preserve valuable records from bad actors.

Social media

Temporarily or permanently store message history and embedded media, stream video content from user uploads, and store and deliver vast amounts of images and avatars to enhance the Web3 efficacy of your app.

Datasets

Some information is too important for humanity to lose. From scientific research projects to historical documentation, cryptographic proofs guarantee a dataset’s integrity and availability forever. Imagine if the world’s most important libraries couldn’t be destroyed because the information has been distributed across thousands of unique locations worldwide.

Personal & editable storage space

With optional mutability, you are free to create and delete files as you see fit. With low costs and many front-end user interfaces to choose from, shdwDrive can be your personal expanded storage space.
