Empowering Researchers with Decentralized Cloud Storage
Discover how Seal supports Rucio researchers and experiments.
At the 7th Rucio Community Workshop, Seal proudly joined the Rucio community, supporting global researchers with secure, decentralized cloud storage. Rucio, developed by CERN, manages critical data for experiments like ATLAS and CMS. Seal enhances this ecosystem with verifiable data security, no egress fees, seamless integration, and immutable blockchain-powered data tracking. Researchers can store and share data across institutions with confidence, knowing their data is protected and accessible without compromise.
Seal Storage Benefits for Researchers
Seamless Setup
Seal's storage solution integrates seamlessly into your existing workflows. Let us handle all of the set up and maintenance for you.Data Provenance
Blockchain maintains a record of data provenance, showcasing the origin and ownership of research data. Data is verified every 24 hours.
No Egress Fees
One of the key advantages of Seal Storage’s approach is the absence of cloud egress fees. This means that, unlike traditional cloud storage solutions, you won't incur extra charges when accessing or transferring your data. Manage your resources more effectively and allocate your budget with confidence.Immutable Record of Usage
Every interaction with research data, including access, modification, or sharing, is recorded as a transaction on the blockchain. This creates an immutable and transparent history of data transactions.
Data Democratization
Data democratization in a decentralized storage ecosystem empowers users with greater control and accessibility without relying on a central authority. It provides transparency through public ledgers or cryptographic proofs, allowing users to verify data integrity. Additionally, decentralized storage enhances security and privacy by distributing data across multiple nodes and using encryption and decentralized identity management.
