The new cost-effective and user-friendly service will bring true decentralization and scalability to OSS – a critical component of the global tech industry
Cumulus Encrypted Storage System (CESS), the 3rd-gen decentralized cloud-based data storage protocol built exclusively for Web3, has completed the development of its Decentralized Object Storage Service (DeOSS). The service was completed on November 14, 2022 and was launched on the CESS cloud storage data network V0.5.3 testnet. This made it the first-ever decentralized storage network to launch decentralized object storage services.
Understanding Object Storage Services
Object storage allows users to dynamically process and analyze stored unstructured data, rather than just static or structured data.
Object storage technology stores and manages data in an unstructured format known as objects. Organizations today create, store, and subsequently analyze vast volumes of unstructured data. This includes everything from photos, videos, and audio files to emails, web pages, and sensor data. Centralized cloud object storage systems are used to distribute this data across multiple physical devices, thereby allowing users to access the data they need very efficiently from a single, virtually hosted server. In this way, object storage technology helps innovative organizations build cloud-native applications that have the scale, flexibility, backups, and access needed to power innovation, analytics, and decision-making.
Unfortunately, today’s leading Object Storage Services such as Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services (AWS) are centralized. They deliver many of the benefits that users want and need, but the platforms ultimately control the data stored therein. This conflicts with the decentralization and owner-owned-and-controlled tenets of Web3 and blockchain.
