What is FWS?
This technology stack covers different components, such as computing, storage and network resources, which can be used by developers to build decentralized applications. The components provided by Filecoin Web Services are designed from the ground up to be scalable, flexible, and secure, making them suitable for a wide range of use cases.
FWS product line
Estuary
https://estuary.tech
Estuary consists of different components, such as Estuary Node, which is an easy-to-deploy and manage Filecoin storage node. In addition, the Estuary Dashboard provides a user-friendly interface for monitoring and managing storage transaction proposals on this network. Estuary also provides different developer tools and API interfaces (such as Estuary API), allowing developers to build storage applications on Filecoin. There is also the Estuary SDK, which provides a set of libraries and tools for implementing integration needs with this network.

https://delta.store
Delta Technology Stack (Delta Technology Stack) is an open source tool suite for creating and managing Filecoin network storage transaction proposals. This includes the Deltac Storage Deal Proposal Negotiation Engine (Deal Making Engine), the Delta Dataset Manager for large datasets and the Edge-UR Gateway for storage and external access to unsealed copies .

Elaborate Delta
Delta simplifies the process of preparing and managing storage transaction proposals on the Filecoin network. Delta can be used to manage data (including version management, metadata management, and tracking the status of storage transaction proposals), which make it easier for users to publish their own data on the Filecoin network.
The Delta storage deal proposal negotiation engine allows users to specify the terms of a storage deal proposal, such as required storage space, price, and transaction conditions. The platform then uses the Filecoin network's smart contracts to enforce storage transaction proposal terms and facilitate transactions.
Delta encapsulates the complex process of preparing a storage transaction proposal for execution on the Filecoin network, providing a seamless experience for users who want to store a copy of their own data on the Filecoin decentralized storage network.
characteristic:
Storage transaction proposal proposal preparation and announcement
Piece submission calculation and optimization
E 2 E/import support (online/offline)
Automatic/manual fix and update storage transaction proposals
wallet distribution
Storage provider allocation and selection
Blockstore cleanup
copy management

Delta Dataset Manager
The Delta Dataset Manager (Delta DM) tool provides storage proposal replica management tracking services for datasets uploaded to the Filecoin network by importing storage proposals (out-of-band process). This provides a solution for proposals to close storage transactions for large amounts of data quickly, as such scenarios are best accelerated using out-of-band processes.
This tool can be isolated from the process of data preparation and data transfer, and can be run outside of Boost and Lotus, allowing Delta DM + Delta to operate as a stand-alone solution.
secondary title
Delta Importer
The Delta Importer (Importer) is a standalone binary program designed to run on top of a storage provider infrastructure. It automates the process of importing CAR files from the filesystem into Boost. By integrating with Delta DM to request storage deal proposals from the self-service API, Delta Importer facilitates the pipeline of automated storage deal negotiation and storage deal incorporation. Delta DM has multiple modes of operation covering a range of different data inclusion strategies.
Upcoming:
Invalid Storage Transaction Proposal Automatic Repair
SP Metadata - detailed copy parameters
Edge-UR
secondary title
Edge-UR is a dedicated node that allows users to upload and retrieve content on Estuary with the same API key. Each user will be assigned to its own node, and these nodes can seamlessly switch the upload protocol. Although the data still needs to be uploaded via the HTTP protocol, the Edge-UR node can help transfer the file to the Delta node to reach a storage transaction proposal.
Overall, Edge-UR simplifies the process of uploading and retrieving data to Estuary, while ensuring the security and controllability of user content.
characteristic:
A lightweight IPFS node that can communicate with IPFS nodes.
Upload and Retrieve - Users can upload data and retrieve it immediately afterwards.
Track content and its associated storage transaction proposals.
Ptolemy
Ptolemy is intended as an orchestration engine for large datasets that are usually confined to S3 buckets or similar filesystems. Ptolemy can encapsulate the entire file system architecture in a CAR file for storage transaction proposals. The goal of Ptolemy is to remove the drudgery associated with data preparation for both storage providers and end users.
FWI
secondary title
Filecoin Web Infrastructure (Web infrastructure) has taken an important step towards decentralization. As a blueprint for the storage transaction proposal engine and other Filecoin technologies and services, it depicts a low-cost, reliable computing and storage solution, and pushes the Filecoin network one step further. It is a scalable computing cluster storage system and visualization cluster, which includes high availability design and Kubernetes orchestration tools.
There are many other benefits of FWI—one of which is the implementation of Customer Provisioned Infrastructure, which allows engineering teams to run infrastructure on behalf of customers and receive FIL in return—this is a major breakthrough. This work will be discussed in detail in the coming weeks.

https://storage.market/
Storage.market serves as an information center for data storage products, providing users with analytical data on the storage market and the latest data storage-related news. This service is especially useful for enterprises and individuals who want to keep abreast of industry trends and make careful decisions about storage products and services.
secondary title
User Landing
Working with multiple clients on these projects is challenging. Because every customer has their own needs, use cases, and different technical capabilities. However, through our understanding of the Filecoin network architecture, protocol, and features, as well as our understanding of customer needs and expectations, we can develop custom solutions that meet their needs and help them take advantage of the benefits of decentralized storage.

Partnering with Radiant Earth
Radiant Earth is an innovative agency that aims to drive positive global impact through the use of machine learning and Earth Observation (EO) technology. They provide a range of high-quality open resources trusted by professionals and researchers worldwide.
One of Radiant Earth's core missions is to foster a community of practice that develops standards on the task of machine learning for Earth observation. This involves bringing together experts in machine learning, earth observation, and related fields to collaborate, share knowledge, and develop best practice standards for using these technologies in a responsible and efficient manner.
As part of our partnership with Radiant Earth, we uploaded a small portion of their machine learning and Earth observation data to the Filecoin network using our own technology stack. We understand the steps necessary to make this happen, and through our tools, we ensure their data is well-formatted, securely stored, and easily accessible.

Work with SUCHO
SUCHO is an outstanding initiative driven by 1,500 volunteers around the world who are collaborating online to digitize and preserve Ukraine's cultural heritage. Amid the ongoing conflict, SUCHO has moved to preserve over 5,000 websites and ~40 TB of data belonging to Ukraine's cultural institutions across 5 different storage providers around the world, preventing these valuable resources from being lost or taken offline.
