Protocolo de Datos Descentralizado Atributos

Orígenes

File sharing / Distributed storage

Base de Datos

Content-addressed distributed storage (no traditional database)

Lenguaje de Consulta

N/A (IPFS Path/CID resolution)

Formatos de Datos

Any (content-agnostic)

Edición Colaborativa en Vivo

Application-level (not protocol feature)

Edición de Texto Enriquecido

N/A (application-level)

Soporte Móvil

Yes (implementations available)

Términos

Self-hosting + Free public gateways + Paid services (Pinning)

Fondos

$257M (Filecoin Token Sale 2017 total: $52M presale + $205.8M public)

Basado En

BitTorrent + Git (conceptually)

Arquitectura P2P

Kademlia DHT (for peer discovery)

Red de Superposición

Global DHT

Direccionamiento por Contenido

Content addressing (CIDs via cryptographic hashing)

Local-First

N/A (nodes store cached content)

Cifrado de Extremo a Extremo (E2EE)

N/A (content is public by default, E2EE at application layer)

Biblioteca de CRDTs

N/A (IPFS itself doesn't use CRDTs, but can store CRDT data)

Tolerancia a Fallos Bizantinos

N/A (no consensus mechanism, content integrity via hashing)

Firma

Cryptographic hashing (content verification, not signing)

Permisos

N/A (public by default, no built-in access control)

Compatibilidad con la Web Semántica

IPLD (InterPlanetary Linked Data)

Contrato Inteligente

N/A (Filecoin has smart contracts, not IPFS)

Posición en la Pila del Protocolo

Application-layer (built on TCP/IP)

Incorporación de Activos/Valor

None — IPFS is a content-addressed storage and retrieval protocol with no native token or economic incentive layer at the protocol level. Pinning services and storage nodes operate independently without protocol-mandated payment.

Madurez del Protocolo / Estandarización

IETF Draft (CIDs specified in draft-multiformats-cid; content routing via HTTP delegated routing specs; libp2p components under active IETF submission)
