Concepts
As you get started with Cloudflare's IPFS Gateway, you may want to read through the following concepts.
DNSLink
You have the option to specify the DNSLink when you create an IPFS gateway, which serves as a custom hostname that directs users to a website already hosted on IPFS.. By default, your DNSLink path is /ipns/onboarding.ipfs.cloudflare.com.If you choose to put your website in a different content folder hosted at your own IPFS node or with a pinning service, you will need to specify that value.
Interplanetary File System (IPFS)
The Interplanetary File System (IPFS) is a distributed file storage protocol that allows computers all over the globe to store and serve files as part of a giant peer-to-peer network.
Cloudflare IPFS Gateway
The Cloudflare IPFS Gateway has a Cloudflare Workers code component that runs on servers globally across Cloudflare data centers. These data centers are across 100+ countries, reaching 95% of the Internet-connected population globally within 50 ms, while providing 100Tbps of network capacity and DDoS protection capability.
IPFS Gateway
We hope that our gateway, hosted at cloudflare-ipfs.com, will serve as the platform for many new highly-reliable and security-enhanced web applications. The IPFS Gateway is the first product to be released as part of our Distributed Web Gateway project, which will eventually encompass all of our efforts to support new distributed web technologies.
End-to-End Integrity With IPFS
This post describes how to use Cloudflare's IPFS gateway to set up a website which is end-to-end secure, while maintaining the performance and reliability benefits of being served from Cloudflare's edge network.
