As an integral part of the Filecoin ecosystem, Akave Cloud offers a powerful, tiered object storage solution that ensures data is not only stored efficiently but also verifiably and immutably. It provides high-performance, enterprise-grade storage for active "hot" data, while seamlessly archiving "cold" data on the Filecoin network. This integration combines Akave's immediate performance with the long-term, verifiable durability of Filecoin, giving enterprises a single solution for both fast, sovereign storage and cryptographically-proven data integrity over time.
Why Akave Cloud?
Akave Cloud is enterprise-grade, decentralized storage that just works. It’s fully S3-compatible, so you can migrate your AI workloads, analytics pipelines, or data-driven apps in minutes.
Get onchain access control for true data sovereignty and verifiable proofs of storage, without writing a single line of new infrastructure code. Akave Cloud is the programmable, sovereign storage layer your stack has been missing. It brings the resilience of decentralized infrastructure into a seamless, enterprise-ready platform.
- Own Your Data: Set the rules and choose the zones. No black boxes and zero costs to move your data.
- Verifiable & Transparent: Every file has a trail. Every action is logged onchain.
- Seamless Integration: Drop-in S3-compatible APIs and managed infrastructure mean you don't have to change what already works.
- Lower Costs, Better Control: Cut storage costs by up to 80% without sacrificing performance, durability, or compliance.
How Akave Cloud and Filecoin Power Verifiable Data Storage
Akave Cloud’s power comes from abstracting away the complexity of decentralized storage while harnessing its core benefits. The entire decentralized storage layer is powered by the Filecoin network, the top-tier decentralized storage marketplace.
Akave acts as the enterprise-grade control plane, while Filecoin provides the robust and verifiable storage foundation. Here’s how they work together:
- Intelligent Data Distribution: When you upload a file via the S3-compatible API, Akave encrypts, erasure-codes, and splits your data into redundant fragments.
- Storage on the Filecoin Network: Akave nodes support replication of the data blocks to the Filecoin network, adding a secondary layer of resiliency and decentralization. This eliminates single points of failure.
- Cryptographic Verification: Filecoin’s unique cryptographic proofs (Proof-of-Replication and Proof-of-Spacetime) mathematically prove that your data is stored correctly and continuously over time.
- Seamless Abstraction: Akave handles all the underlying mechanics—negotiating storage deals, managing payments, and monitoring providers—so your team interacts with a simple, familiar S3 endpoint, not a complex blockchain protocol.
Key Features for AI, Analytics and Beyond
- Decentralized Storage: Files are stored across a network of vendors, orchestrated by Akave Cloud with its own dedicated Avalanche L1 for performance and verifiability, then commit the cold or archive data to Filecoin Storage Providers.
- Fully Managed & S3-Compatible: Integrate Akave Cloud without changing your tools.
- Programmable Policy & Access Control: Set and enforce your data rules automatically with smart contracts.
- Built-in Resilience: Achieve 11x9s durability and 99.9% availability with erasure-coded, blockchain-backed decentralized storage.
- Global & Compliant: Choose region-specific data residency to meet compliance needs.
- Immutable & Secure: Benefit from immutable metadata, audit trails, and encryption by default.
Use Cases with Verifiable Data Storage
- AI Infrastructure: Secure model training pipelines and ensure the provenance of datasets.
- Regulated Industries (Healthcare, Fintech): Protect sensitive data with fine-grained, onchain access control and verifiable audit trails.
- Enterprise IT & Backups: Build a ransomware-resilient architecture with decentralized, erasure-coded backups.
- DePIN Builders: Provide decentralized networks with a robust, verifiable storage backbone.
- Data Lakes & Analytics: Ingest data into a decentralized backend that supports governance, access control, and long-term durability.
