IPFS Cluster

Pinset orchestration for IPFS

IPFS Cluster provides data orchestration across a swarm of IPFS daemons by allocating, replicating and tracking a global pinset distributed among multiple peers.

There are 3 different applications:

• A cluster peer application: ipfs-cluster-service, to be run along with kubo (go-ipfs) as a sidecar.
• A client CLI application: ipfs-cluster-ctl, which allows easily interacting with the peer's HTTP API.
• An additional "follower" peer application: ipfs-cluster-follow, focused on simplifying the process of configuring and running follower peers.
