【Abstract】Distributed file storage aims to support credible access to data on distributed nodes. There are some application scenarios, for example, data centers, peer-to-peer (P2P) storage systems, and storage in wireless networks. Nevertheless, among these applications, data blocks are inevitably replaced and inaccessible when there exists nodes failure. As a result, data integrity and credibility is absent. To overcome such a challenge, blockchain is explored to protect the distributed data. Through analysis and evaluation, we demonstrate that blockchain advocates data integrity and credibility for distributed file storage, as well as the application of blockchain technology for distributed file storage.
