Abstract
In today’s Web, HTTP is the default protocol to transmit files. It works efficiently to move small files. But HTTP fails to implement other more efficient file distribution techniques. The InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) is a peer-to-peer globally mounted file system which addresses the challenges which can resolve data reliability, fault-tolerance, consistency, and non-repudiation issues in the current system. In this paper, we have proposed an innovative and efficient way of storing and retrieving the files on Web using IPFS; adding or uploading files is made more easier and assures high security to data. Many approaches are made where the files are stored in a distributed system but the approach using decentralized storage protocol is not used and it provides a new dimension to the application.
