摘要

近年来，区块链技术已成功应用于促进先前收集和存储的数据的不可篡改性、可追溯性和真实性。然而，由于经济和技术问题，区块链存储的数据量通常有限。也就是说，区块链通常只存储数据的指纹，如数据的哈希值，而完整的原始信息则存储在链外。这通常足以保证不变性和可追溯性，但却无法支持另一个重要特性，即数据可用性。当选择传统的集中式数据库作为链外存储时，情况尤其如此。因此，许多建议都试图将区块链与去中心化的 IPFS 存储适当地结合起来。然而，在 IPFS 上存储数据可能会带来一些隐私问题。本文提出了一种将区块链、IPFS 和加密技术适当结合的解决方案，以保证不变性、可追溯性、可用性和数据隐私。

Efficient and Secure Distributed Data Storage and Retrieval Using Interplanetary File System and Blockchain

Blockchain technology has been successfully applied in recent years to promote the immutability, traceability, and authenticity of previously collected and stored data. However, the amount of data stored in the blockchain is usually limited for economic and technological issues. Namely, the blockchain usually stores only a fingerprint of data, such as the hash of data, while full, raw information is stored off-chain. This is generally enough to guarantee immutability and traceability, but misses to support another important property, that is, data availability. This is particularly true when a traditional, centralized database is chosen for off-chain storage. For this reason, many proposals try to properly combine blockchain with decentralized IPFS storage. However, the storage of data on IPFS could pose some privacy problems. This paper proposes a solution that properly combines blockchain, IPFS, and encryption techniques to guarantee immutability, traceability, availability, and data privacy.

期刊介绍： Future Internet is a scholarly open access journal which provides an advanced forum for science and research concerned with evolution of Internet technologies and related smart systems for “Net-Living” development. The general reference subject is therefore the evolution towards the future internet ecosystem, which is feeding a continuous, intensive, artificial transformation of the lived environment, for a widespread and significant improvement of well-being in all spheres of human life (private, public, professional). Included topics are: • advanced communications network infrastructures • evolution of internet basic services • internet of things • netted peripheral sensors • industrial internet • centralized and distributed data centers • embedded computing • cloud computing • software defined network functions and network virtualization • cloud-let and fog-computing • big data, open data and analytical tools • cyber-physical systems • network and distributed operating systems • web services • semantic structures and related software tools • artificial and augmented intelligence • augmented reality • system interoperability and flexible service composition • smart mission-critical system architectures • smart terminals and applications • pro-sumer tools for application design and development • cyber security compliance • privacy compliance • reliability compliance • dependability compliance • accountability compliance • trust compliance • technical quality of basic services.
