Welcome to the comprehensive documentation for the ZHTP Unified Storage System (lib-storage). This system provides a sophisticated multi-layer storage architecture that combines distributed hash table (DHT) networking with economic incentives and zero-knowledge privacy.
- Architecture Overview - High-level system architecture and design principles
- API Reference - Complete API documentation with examples
- Getting Started - Quick start guide and basic usage
- DHT Foundation Layer - Distributed hash table implementation
- Economic Storage Layer - Market mechanisms and incentives
- Content Management - High-level content operations
- Type System - Core data structures and types
- Storage Operations - Basic storage and retrieval operations
- Economic Features - Using contracts, payments, and incentives
- Identity Integration - Working with ZHTP identities
- Zero-Knowledge Features - Privacy and cryptographic features
- Basic Usage - Simple storage operations
- Economic Storage - Contract-based storage
- Identity Storage - Secure credential storage
- Smart Contracts - DHT-based smart contract deployment
The ZHTP Unified Storage System is organized into five main phases:
Defines all data structures, enums, and type aliases used throughout the system.
Provides networking and routing foundation using Kademlia algorithm with cryptographic integrity.
Adds market mechanisms, dynamic pricing, contracts, and incentive systems on top of DHT.
High-level content operations with metadata management, encryption, and access control.
Unified API that orchestrates all subsystems through the UnifiedStorageSystem.
- Distributed Storage: Kademlia DHT with automatic replication and fault tolerance
- Economic Incentives: Dynamic pricing, storage contracts, and performance-based rewards
- Zero-Knowledge Privacy: Cryptographic proofs for all storage operations
- Identity Integration: Seamless integration with ZHTP identity system
- Smart Contract Support: Store and execute WASM smart contracts in DHT
- Multi-Tier Storage: Optimized storage tiers (Hot, Warm, Cold, Archive)
- Erasure Coding: Reed-Solomon encoding for data redundancy
- Automatic SLA Enforcement: Self-enforcing contracts with penalties and rewards
- Language: Rust 2021 Edition
- Cryptography: Post-quantum algorithms via
lib-crypto - Zero-Knowledge: Plonky2, Groth16, Nova, STARK proofs via
lib-proofs - Identity: ZHTP identity system via
lib-identity - Network: Async UDP-based messaging with Tokio
- Storage: Content-addressed storage with BLAKE3 hashing
- Economics: Token-based payments with escrow and reputation
