Leveraging the Decentralized Web to Preserve Cultural Heritage

As part of our ongoing effort to serve as a bridge between our institutional partners and emerging technologies, DPLA has started to explore the benefits of decentralized storage. Long-term storage on the decentralized web is one approach to ensuring the protection of cultural artifacts and heritage — against both natural and man-made threats, such as natural disasters, loss of funding, or technological failures. In this webinar, we will share the results of a pilot project to upload some of our partner content onto Filecoin’s decentralized storage network. During the webinar, we will be joined by speakers from the Filecoin Foundation for the Decentralized Web (FFDW) to help the DPLA community understand decentralized storage technology and how they can leverage it for added resilience. Speaker: Jefferson Sankara is a Senior Software Product Engineer at the Filecoin Foundation, where he leads the development of Singularity—the only open-source, end-to-end data onboarding platform for the Filecoin network. With over a decade of experience in product management, data science, machine learning, and blockchain technology, he specializes in creating tools that empower organizations to preserve, discover, and derive long-term value from decentralized storage networks. In this webinar, Sankara will share insights on how libraries can leverage filecoin’s decentralized storage solutions to preserve data securely and reliably. His unique blend of product strategy, technical expertise, and passion for decentralized systems makes him an invaluable voice for libraries exploring Web3 technologies.
