Walrus Sites
A Walrus site is a website that exists entirely on The Walrus Decentralized Store, eliminating the need for traditional web infrastructure. Walrus sites load their content from objects on Walrus, which include all the resources required to render the site.
To access a Walrus site, all you need is its Sui Object ID or SuiNS name. There's no need for a wallet; these sites are accessible to everyone. Walrus sites take full advantage of the decentralization provided by The Walrus Store, offering low storage costs compared to traditional web2 solutions and greater robustness vs web3 alternatives.
With Walrus sites, Dapps can achieve full decentralization, extending beyond smart contracts. Dapps on Sui, Ethereum, Solana, and other L1 and L2 networks can utilize Walrus Sites as a robust and highly available alternative to their existing cloud hosting solutions.
Walrus is secured by Sui, a horizontally scalable Byzantine fault-tolerant and proof-of-stake blockchain. With Walrus, data is sharded and efficiently replicated across Walrus nodes globally. This marks a significant step forward in the evolution of fully decentralized applications.
