Shelby: Fast Web2 Speed, Open Web3 Storage

In low latency scenarios, high throughput reads mean loss grade speeds are received.

With advanced Clay coding, one gets high durability with fewer replication factors (about 2x compared to 5-8x in most others), thereby cutting down storage costs.

Filecoin and Arweave work great for archival storage whereas these aren’t set up for streaming data in real time or AI applications.

Shelby, instead, targets low latency workloads, merging the openness of Web3 with the speed of Web2. By delivering cloud grade speeds, with decentralized control, it practically threatens to render traditional cloud providers obsolete when it comes to data heavy applications.
