DHT-based storage
DHT-based storage (Distributed Hash Table) is a decentralized way to organize and find data across many computers. Each computer (node) has a unique identifier, and data is assigned a key that is mapped to a specific node using a consistent hashing algorithm. This means data can be efficiently stored and retrieved without relying on a central server. DHTs enable scalable, resilient, and efficient data sharing in peer-to-peer networks, as each node collaborates to manage and locate pieces of information collectively, ensuring continuous operation even if some nodes leave or fail.
