Updates van Akave

In november zijn O3 en de Akave-protocolstack veranderd in iets dat je op grote schaal als primaire opslag kunt beschouwen. We hebben drie O3-releases verzonden (v1.4.0, v1.4.1, v1.4.2) en de protocollijn doorgeschakeld naar Akave v0.4.0/v0.4.1.

The sky is getting busier - more satellites, more debris, more transient events, and more eyes on the sky than ever before. SkyMapper is turning that complexity into a shared observatory. Hundreds of telescopes and all-sky cameras around the world now feed into a single, verifiable record of what the sky looked like at a given moment. Akave Cloud is the storage backbone that makes those observations provable instead of just plausible.

October pushed O3 deeper into enterprise territory. We shipped two releases, O3 v1.3.0 and the AkaveSDK v0.3.1 (protocol) adding full cache-management, kernel-accelerated file paths, AWS-accurate pagination, hardened metadata encryption, and a CLI-based ACME flow for bucket certificates.

375ai, a decentralized edge data intelligence network, has integrated a technical pilot with Akave, an enterprise-grade, S3-compatible object storage solution purpose built for edge and AI. Akave provides 375ai with the data integrity guarantees, low latency, high performance, and significant cost savings.

The integration provides a quick way to move or sync your data from major cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure) into Akave’s verifiable, decentralized, and cost-efficient object storage.

September was a shipping month. We landed three O3 releases (v1.2.0, v1.2.1, v1.3.0), pushed key protocol changes toward verifiable, repairable data at scale with PDP integration, and moved our O3 Trustless GUI (“Prickly Pear”) from wireframes into a working app. Here’s the full rundown

At ETHGlobal New Delhi, Akave connected with builders across the Ethereum ecosystem through our booth, a technical talk on programmable storage, and the Akave O3 Build Challenge. We were proud to award P2P Federated Learning as the winner, an innovative project using Akave O3 for decentralized, privacy-preserving AI training.

At The AI Conference in San Francisco, Akave Cloud met with AI engineers, enterprise architects, and infra leads to discuss one pressing issue: storage infrastructure is falling behind AI innovation. From rising egress costs to lack of data lineage and verifiability, teams are struggling to manage and monetize data effectively.

This fall, the Akave team is heading to San Francisco, New Delhi, and Singapore to connect with the builders, founders, and forward-thinkers shaping the future of AI and Web3. If you’re attending any of these events, we’d love to meet you and show you what we’re building with Akave Cloud, our programmable, verifiable storage layer for AI and data-intensive applications. Whether you're an enterprise looking to reduce storage costs, a builder shipping the next DePIN protocol, or a founder trying to bring real-world data onchain, we’d love to connect.

Akave Cloud × Baselight transforms static datasets into live, queryable products. Instead of uploading files to fragmented marketplaces or relying on full downloads, providers list once and let buyers stream only the slices they need, directly from Akave’s verifiable storage. With programmable pricing, no egress fees, and onchain access control, this integration unlocks a new revenue model for AI teams, data vendors, and DePIN builders, where discovery, access, and monetization happen at the point of query.

Akave Cloud is a hosted, enterprise-grade storage layer that gives enterprises and builders a “just works” AWS-style experience with S3 compatibility, zero egress fees, verifiable storage, and policy-based programmability—without any infrastructure setup. It’s optimized for durability, availability, and cost savings of up to 80% versus hyperscalers, while the Akave Network provides the decentralized backend: an open protocol for storage, retrieval, and compute, powered by tokenized incentives and designed for sovereignty and scale. Connecting the two is Akave O3, the gateway that bridges familiar S3 APIs with Akave’s onchain infrastructure, with Akave Cloud serving as the first production subnet. Together, they deliver a full-stack solution—plug-and-play simplicity for enterprises and infrastructure sovereignty for builders and DePIN operators.

July and August marked another step forward in making decentralized storage enterprise-ready. We shipped deep upgrades across Akave O3 (S3 API), the protocol layer (akavenode + SDK), and smart contracts. Tightening security and compliance, increasing throughput, and smoothing operator workflows. Below, we break down everything that’s new, enhanced, and future-proofed across recent versions.

From April to July, we didn’t just ship product, we laid the architecture for a new kind of internet. One where data is sovereign, verifiable, and programmable. At Akave, our mission is simple: to enable a world where all assets live on‑chain and humanity’s advancement is accelerated by the power of data. Our vision is a future where every transaction is verifiable, transparent, and built on sovereign infrastructure, unlocking innovation across AI and beyond. This past quarter, that vision moved from blueprint to reality.

June was all about deepening our enterprise integrations and pushing the boundaries of performance in both our object storage API and protocol layers. The Akave engineering team delivered critical upgrades that tighten S3 compatibility, extend Snowflake interoperability, and dramatically increase blockchain throughput; without compromising the core principles of verifiability, resilience, and decentralized control. Below, we break down the highlights from our June release cycle across Akave O3 and the core protocol stack.
