The internet wasn’t built with a native data layer. HTTP database servers have centralized information and power amongst a few Big Tech institutions and resulted in a web of silos rather than a web of data.
From decentralized identity to censorship-resistant social media and cross-platform collaboration, many new use cases require a solution for managing dynamic data on the open internet, beyond the control of any single DB server.
By combining DIDs, IPFS, blockchain, and p2p networking, Ceramic provides a secure, collaborative, global network for managing user and app data beyond the cloud.
