Data Addressed by Content
Every file gets a unique content ID (CID). Same data, same ID, on any provider, in any system.
Integrity, built into storage
Your files are identified by what they contain, not where they’re stored, so you can move them anytime.
Replicated across providers
Your data is replicated across independent storage providers, so one outage or one provider leaving doesn’t take your data with it.
Intact by Design
The ID changes if even one byte of your file changes, so you can always tell your data is exactly what you stored.
Three ways to store data on Filecoin
Start with warm storage, archive what you rarely touch, or bring your S3 workflow to enterprise storage.
Warm Storage
- Store and retrieve data on demand
- Multiple independent copies by default
- Optional CDN layer for faster delivery
Archival Storage
- Built for large datasets you write once and rarely read
- Scales to petabytes across independent providers
- Set up with our team for large volumes
Enterprise Storage
- S3-compatible object storage from Fil One
- Works with the S3 SDKs and CLIs you already use
- Client-side encryption and access control
Get started and store your first data
Upload, retrieve, and pin with a few lines of code.
