What is Storj?

Storj DCS (Decentralized Cloud Storage) is an encrypted, secure, and cost-effective object storage service that enables users to decentralize object data everywhere, using a simple logical instance. It offers affordable and predictable pricing, S3 compatibility, a robust library of open-source technical documentation, and familiar development tools, along with a vibrant user community, enabling developers to economically and easily learn and leverage decentralized cloud storage technology to take control of their data when building the next great application or service Storj DCS is the world's first open-source, decentralized cloud storage layer that is private by design and secure by default, enabling developers to build in the best data protection and privacy into their applications. The zero-trust architecture, multi-region high availability, default encryption, and edge-based access controls minimize risk and give only the user, or those granted permission, access to the files, allowing users to take back full ownership and control of their data Storj DCS is distributed and decentralized object storage optimized for larger files, especially those accessed regularly from geographically diverse locations. Common ideal use cases include general backup, database backup, private data, multimedia storage, large file transfer, hybrid cloud, machine learning, VR/AR, IoT data, and NFT-related digital assets or multimedia streaming
