Roles and Functions

Storage nodes are globally distributed and tasked with storing various types of data, ranging from simple datasets to complex AI model parameters. Their primary functions include:

• Data Redundancy and Availability: Each piece of data is replicated across multiple nodes to prevent data loss and ensure high availability. This redundancy also helps distribute the workload across the network, improving overall performance.

• Secure Data Storage: Storage nodes leverage blockchain’s encryption and security protocols to protect data from unauthorized access or tampering, ensuring a secure data storage environment.

• Data Retrieval: These nodes respond to network queries, retrieving and transmitting requested data to users or applications. This capability is crucial for AI models that rely on real-time data for optimal performance.
