Description

Decentralized Storage epic issue for Oasis network Version E

Goals

Permissionless open network with decentralized storage servers.

Details

Storage servers contract with the network to provide storage; network infra handles data migration at end of contract period. Want greater storage efficiency (less data duplication); better fault tolerance efficiency.

Linked Issues

  • Switching to FEC+CAS instead of F+1 CAS for storage efficiency, higher sybil resistance
  • Storage economics -- Gas fractions to pay compute vs storage, storage contract, slashing
  • Storage verification mechanism design -- what service performs probing to verify storage compliance, how to probe (uniform over all storage locations? over contracts? what frequency?)
  • Storage server API changes (DoS prevention, authn/authz, storage receipt)
