+
+### Status
+
+Planned for the end of 2024
+
+Remark, FungiStor will act as the backend infrastructure for the Flists within our own system. It is versatile and can be utilized by anyone in need of a global-level content delivery system for files, objects, and images.

+
+
+### The Problem
+
+Existing blockchain, internet, and P2P content delivery and storage systems suffer from sluggish performance and are too expensive. Content retrieval is often slow, and the overhead for ensuring redundancy is excessive. We require innovative approaches to facilitate efficient information sharing among users.
+
+Content delivery frequently represents the most significant expense for social networks. Running a basic social video network for 10 million users currently costs approximately $2 million per month using traditional cloud providers. We have the potential to reduce this cost by several orders of magnitude.
+
+
+### Introducing FungiStor
+
+FungiStor is a peer-to-peer (P2P) content delivery layer designed to store and distribute an extensive range of objects, including images, videos, files, and more. It has the capability to handle trillions of objects and files efficiently. FungiStor serves as an excellent solution for content delivery networks (CDNs), significantly reducing costs for organizations seeking to stream or deliver substantial data volumes to their user base.
+
+
+### The Benefits
+
+- **Global scalability, sub-50ms lookups:** FungiStor scales worldwide with ultra-fast data retrieval under 50 milliseconds.
+- **Localized content delivery:** prioritizes local data access for optimized speed and efficiency.
+- **Quantum-Safe security:** incorporates robust quantum security measures.
+- **Interoperability:** works seamlessly with IPFS, Torrent, and more.
+- **Cost efficiency:** offers significant cost savings, potentially 10 to 100 times less than conventional solutions.

+
+### The Problem
+
+There is a growing need for more accessible and user-friendly solutions to store and manage large volumes of data efficiently.
+
+While Zero-Stor addresses numerous storage challenges effectively, it may not be accessible or user-friendly for typical developers or system administrators. QSFS has been developed to bridge this gap and provide a more approachable storage solution.
+
+### Introducing QSFS
+
+A FUSE-based filesystem utilizing Zero-Stor as its backend. Metadata is safeguarded to prevent loss, inheriting Zero-Stor's benefits and simplifying usage for developers and system administrators.
+
+The filesystem is always deployed in one location, data is distributed (using zero-stor) across multiple sites for unparalleled reliability. 
+
+Metadata redundancy is included. While not consistently synchronized in real-time, the system allows configuration of consistency levels. Typically, the decentralized state may lag by up to 15 minutes.
+
+This filesystem can be mounted under various storage-aware applications, such as backup servers, file servers, or S3 servers, enhancing versatility.
+
+### Benefits
+
+- Inherits the advantages of Zero-Stor, including enhanced data security, efficiency, and scalability.
+- Provides a user-friendly interface for seamless integration with a wide range of applications.
+- Offers considerable scalability capabilities, although not unlimited in scale.
+- Achieves reasonable performance data transfer rates of up to 50 MB/sec, particularly for larger files.
+- Can scale to about 2 million files per filesystem.
