Description
Datum is a decentralized and distributed high performance NoSQL database backed by a blockchain ledger build on top of Ethereum. This technology allows anyone to securely and anonymously backup structured data from social networks, wearables, smart homes, and other IoT devices. Datum provides a marketplace where users can share or sell data on their own terms.
Datum achieves the exchange of encrypted data through a combination of the DAT token powered marketplace on Ethereum blockchain and encrypted data exchange using a private key exchange on BigchainDB.
Datum acts as:
- Decentralized Data Store: Secure, private and anonymous storage of structured data
- Storage Nodes: Miners running Storage Nodes are paid for storing and providing low latency access to data
- Marketplace: Users can choose to share their data selectively or even sell their data to trusted entities
