The Storj network allows you to store and retrieve your data, but it is not made for hosting dynamic web sites.
To publish your site, your need to have either compute service which will run your web-server, or web-service. The Storj DCS object storage does not offer compute or web services to host your site.
Instead it offers S3-compatible object storage.
However, it could host a static web-site:
If your site uses the S3 object storage already, you can easily switch to Storj DCS:
- Create S3 credentials on Storj-hosted S3-compatible Gateway
- Configure your S3 part to work with our
S3 Gateway
instead of AWS S3:Endpoint
will be offered during credentials generation, but you can select it from preferred regionsAWS Access Key ID
can be taken from the log of the S3 GatewayAWS Secret Access Key
can be taken from the log of the S3 Gateway
In addition you can use Storj DCS:
- via Self-hosted S3-compatible Gateway on your hosting (the
Endpoint
will be http://localhost:7777); - directly (without an intermediate S3 Gateway) via Uplink CLI or programmable access via libuplink.
