Aleph overview

What is Aleph?

Aleph is an open-source off-chain P2P (peer-to-peer) network featuring a decentralized database (inc. file storage), computing, and a DID framework. Aleph allows your blockchain-enabled app (dApp) to securely access trusted off-chain data or computation through cross-chain connectivity and our client libraries.

Why use Aleph.im?

To build dApps without centralized components. Data storage and business logic run on Aleph's unstoppable decentralized network instead of a centralized service such as AWS or Google Cloud.
This is the first generation of fully decentralized apps.

Components of Aleph you can use in your development:

  • Decentralized Database
  • IPFS Storage for images and documents
  • Virtual Machines
  • SDKs to interact with the Aleph Network
