Distributed storage has significantly advanced data management by spreading information across multiple locations or nodes, enhancing resilience and performance. Despite these improvements, its limitations and vulnerabilities have also become increasingly clear. These systems are often expensive, lack adaptability, and present considerable data security risks due to their single point of failure, making them a prime target for malicious actors.
Decentralized storage addresses these challenges by operating across a peer-to-peer (P2P) network. In decentralized systems, cryptographic protocols handle data management, verification, and access using blockchain. The absence of central control, coupled with end-to-end encryption and data fragmentation, sets these solutions apart. With decentralized storage, enterprises can achieve robust security, privacy, and complete data ownership.
