MW’s innovative application PS.ZONE allows humans to re-examine permanent storage
The topic of how to store data permanently has been going on for many years. Many innovative teams are trying to realize this urgently needed tool. In 2020, the global open source code warehouse Github and the Norwegian film technology company PIQL will cooperate to store the excellent source code in Github. In the Arctic World Archives, these codes are permanently stored off-line on film. It is said that they can be stored for 500 years. The Arctic World Archive (AWA), which stores these materials, currently stores many countries and histories around the world. , Astronomy, well-known companies, well-known families and other data.
With the development of technology and society, mankind is producing massive amounts of data every day. Mankind pays more and more attention to the preservation of these data, especially those data with value and collection significance. We must start to re-examine the problem of data preservation. From a perspective.
One is data security and privacy issues. As we all know, traditional data storage generally refers to storage in the hands of centralized operators or application developers. Data abuse, loss, and theft often occur.
The second is the issue of data right confirmation. The ownership of data we generate every day, especially the value of data, has been ignored by people, and these Internet giants rely on these personal data to generate various consumer preferences and directions, and they will earn you with pleasure. Money in the pocket.
The third is the time limit of data storage. The most effective solution proposed at present is film storage. This offline solid-state storage is the most effective long-term storage solution today. In addition, network storage often relies on trust in enterprises and applications, such as various All kinds of memory and cloud products are at risk of data loss.
At present, with the exception of offline solid-state storage methods such as film technology, there has been no effective solution for online network storage. Until the emergence of new technologies such as blockchain, IPFS, and distributed storage in recent years, online permanent storage has become possible.
As the underlying operating system of blockchain + distributed storage, MW uses IPFS point-to-point transmission protocol, curve25519 high-speed encryption algorithm, OSS object storage protocol and other technologies to form an easy-to-use, usable distributed and decentralized storage network. The space is increasing indefinitely. As long as the network is constantly powered on, the entire network will be distributed all over the world, providing safe, private, and long-term storage services for everyone.
MW is currently a member of international professional organizations such as the Global Network Storage Industry Association and the International Archives Council, and has established technology and application test projects with companies such as Huawei Cloud and Ali Cloud.
PS.ZONE (Permanent Storage Zone) is developed by a group of network storage technology enthusiasts. It uses the underlying technology and storage space of the mirror network MW. It will provide permanent storage services in the form of inbox QR codes all over the world. When people record When the next photo is taken, you can choose to upload it to the PS.ZONE network. The minimum cost is only $1, and you will get permanent storage (no time limit), data inheritance, and access anytime, anywhere.
At the same time, PS.ZONE also supports MW payment, with a minimum of 4MW to enjoy storage services with the same rights as $1. So how much things can be stored in PS.ZONE, let’s calculate:
At present, the MW storage space is about 1130PB. Assuming that a family gathering photo of 10MB is stored permanently once a year, the entire PS.ZONE network space is enough for 300 million people to use it for 100 years. This is still in the case of multiple backups (MW automatic multiple backup function) At present, the entire network space is still increasing. The official hope that the PS inbox can be spread all over the world, and even become a living habit, just like using mobile payment.
It’s time to revisit the issue of permanent storage of data. Maybe an innovative application like PS.ZONE can give everyone a fresh try. It took time to verify at that time. We believe that the continuous advancement of technology will definitely promote the development of mankind.
