In the world of technology, "Walrus" (often referred to as the Walrus Protocol) is a decentralized storage and data availability network. It was developed by Mysten Labs—the same team behind the Sui blockchain—and is designed to handle massive amounts of data that are too heavy to store on a traditional blockchain.
​Think of it as the Web3 version of "cloud storage" like AWS or Google Drive, but without a central company in charge.How It Works: The "RedStuff" InnovationThe protocol uses a specialized algorithm called RedStuff, a two-dimensional erasure coding scheme.Fragmentation: Instead of saving a whole file on one server, it breaks files (which it calls "blobs") into tiny shards.
Efficiency: It only requires about 4–5x replication to ensure data is safe, compared to other systems that might need much more.Self-Healing: Even if up to two-thirds of the storage nodes go offline, the protocol can still reconstruct your original file.
