Walrus
Walrus is a decentralized storage protocol on Sui that uses erasure coding to host large data files at low replication cost.
What is Walrus?
Walrus stores large binary files and unstructured data across a distributed network of nodes, using erasure coding to keep replication at roughly 4-5x while tolerating up to two-thirds node failure. Storage is programmable via Sui's Move contracts, and Walrus Sites lets developers host static websites directly on the protocol.
