Decentralized Video Content Permanent Storage
Blockchain Infrastructure Consulting
Expert guidance to design, build, and scale your Web3 infrastructure from the ground up.
- Infrastructure Audit: Security and performance review of your existing
RPC,indexing, andnodesetup. - Architecture Blueprint: Detailed technical design for high-availability systems with 99.9% uptime SLAs.
- Protocol Selection: Objective analysis of
EVM,Solana,Cosmos, andSubstratefor your specific use case. - Cost & Scaling Model: Forecast infrastructure expenses and plan for 10x user growth without service degradation.
Move from concept to a scalable, secure foundation in weeks, not months. We provide the strategic roadmap and hands-on engineering to de-risk your infrastructure build.
Core Technical Capabilities
We build the foundational storage layer for your video platform, ensuring content is permanently accessible, verifiable, and cost-efficient. Our solutions are engineered for scale and compliance.
Decentralized Storage Architecture
We design and deploy custom architectures leveraging IPFS, Filecoin, and Arweave to create resilient, censorship-resistant video storage. Content is distributed globally with automatic replication and geo-redundancy.
On-Chain Content Provenance
Immutable verification of video ownership, edits, and licensing via custom smart contracts (ERC-1155, ERC-6551). Every asset is anchored to a blockchain, providing a permanent, tamper-proof audit trail.
Gas-Optimized Minting & Management
Our smart contracts are built with Solidity 0.8+ and OpenZeppelin libraries, optimized for batch minting and low-cost updates. We implement efficient data structures to minimize transaction fees for your users.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Audits
Full-stack security from smart contract audits (CertiK, Halborn) to infrastructure hardening. We implement role-based access, multi-sig wallets, and comprehensive monitoring for production deployments.
Scalable Video Encoding Pipeline
Automated processing for uploads, including transcoding, thumbnail generation, and metadata extraction. Integrated with decentralized storage for seamless, serverless media workflows.
Custom Player & SDK Integration
White-label video players and developer SDKs that stream directly from decentralized storage. Features include token-gated access, proof-of-play, and ad-insertion hooks for monetization.
Business Outcomes for Your Platform
We architect decentralized storage solutions that deliver measurable performance, security, and cost advantages for your video platform.
Permanent Content Integrity
Immutable, timestamped storage on Arweave or Filecoin ensures your video assets are censorship-resistant and verifiable forever. Eliminate link rot and data loss risks.
Radical Cost Reduction
Replace expensive centralized CDN and archival storage with predictable, decentralized pricing. Pay once for permanent storage on Arweave or use Filecoin's competitive storage markets.
Sub-Second Global Delivery
Leverage our integrated CDN layer and geo-optimized gateways to deliver video streams with <100ms latency worldwide, matching centralized performance.
Developer Velocity
Get a production-ready, fully audited storage stack in weeks, not months. Our SDKs and APIs integrate seamlessly with your existing video pipeline.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Compliance
End-to-end encrypted uploads, multi-sig access controls, and comprehensive audit trails. Built to meet SOC 2 Type II and GDPR requirements for data handling.
Monetization & Provenance
Enable new revenue streams with native token-gating, NFT-based ownership proofs, and immutable attribution for creators via on-chain metadata.
Build vs. Buy: Centralized vs. Decentralized Storage
A technical and operational comparison of building your own decentralized video storage solution versus partnering with Chainscore Labs, contrasted with traditional centralized cloud providers.
| Decision Factor | Build In-House | Chainscore Managed Service | Traditional Cloud (AWS S3/GCP) |
|---|---|---|---|
Time to Production | 6-12+ months | 4-8 weeks | 1-2 weeks |
Upfront Development Cost | $250K - $750K+ | $50K - $150K | $5K - $20K |
Protocol Expertise Required | High (IPFS, Filecoin, Arweave) | None (We manage it) | Low (Standard APIs) |
Data Permanence Guarantee | Your responsibility | SLA-backed, multi-protocol pinning | None (Data can be lost/deleted) |
Censorship Resistance | Depends on implementation | Built-in, decentralized architecture | Vulnerable to central authority |
Ongoing Node Operations | Your team manages nodes/peers | Fully managed by Chainscore | Managed by cloud provider |
Content Delivery Network (CDN) | Build custom or integrate 3rd party | Integrated high-performance CDN | Integrated (e.g., CloudFront) |
Compliance & Data Sovereignty | Complex to implement | Included (Geo-fencing, GDPR tools) | Standard tools available |
Recurring Annual OpEx | $100K - $300K (team + infra) | $25K - $100K (service fee) | $10K - $50K (storage + egress) |
Vendor Lock-in Risk | Low (Your code, your nodes) | Low (Portable architecture) | High (Proprietary APIs & formats) |
Our Development & Integration Process
A structured, transparent workflow designed to deliver production-ready decentralized storage solutions on time and within spec, from initial architecture to final audit.
Architecture & Protocol Selection
We design a custom storage architecture, selecting the optimal protocol (Arweave, Filecoin, IPFS) based on your permanence, cost, and latency requirements. This includes defining data sharding, redundancy, and retrieval strategies.
Smart Contract & Node Development
Our team builds and deploys the core smart contracts for access control, payment streaming, and data anchoring. We also configure and secure the necessary storage nodes and gateways for your ecosystem.
API & SDK Integration
We deliver a fully documented REST API and client-side SDK (JavaScript/TypeScript) for seamless upload, pinning, and retrieval. Includes libraries for encryption, proof-of-storage verification, and progress tracking.
Security Audit & Testing
Every component undergoes rigorous internal testing and a formal audit by a third-party security firm. We provide a final report and implement all recommendations before mainnet deployment.
Deployment & Monitoring
We manage the production deployment across your chosen networks, establishing real-time monitoring dashboards for node health, storage proofs, API performance, and cost analytics.
Documentation & Handoff
Complete technical documentation, operational runbooks, and developer tutorials are delivered. We conduct training sessions for your team to ensure full ownership and smooth ongoing operations.
