# Nostr-Native Distributed Storage System
The latest iteration of Garland, a privacy-preserving distributed storage system built on Nostr and Blossom, using erasure coding for durability and single-key recovery.
This document describes a distributed storage system built upon Nostr and Blossom infrastructure that provides durable, privacy-preserving storage for immutable blobs through erasure coding across independent servers. The system maintains a hierarchical namespace analogous to a filesystem through content-addressed manifests organized in a Merkle DAG structure. State evolution is tracked via a cryptographically-linked hash chain of commit events, enabling complete auditability and straightforward disaster recovery. The entire dataset-including all historical state-remains recoverable from a single cryptographic key. This design prioritizes user sovereignty: the owner explicitly controls when changes are committed, which servers store their data, and when obsolete data is garbage collected.
