What is Programmable Storage? See how MEMO is playing with the future of data!
Imagine if your photos can recognize your friends and family and automatically share with them; if your health data can securely provide personalized advice to your doctor after your authorization; if your game props are not just lying in the warehouse, but can be automatically upgraded according to your progress… This is not science fiction, this is exactly what MEMO is building the future of “programmable storage”. … This is not science fiction, this is exactly what MEMO is building “programmable storage” to bring the future.
I. Introduction Introduction: Who owns your data now?
In the digital age, each of us is constantly generating data: photos, chat logs, health data, shopping preferences …… These data should be the valuable assets of our digital life. However, the reality is often cruel:
Data is trapped in “silos”: Your data is scattered on various platforms, which are not interoperable with each other, forming a single data island.
Privacy is difficult to guarantee: centralized service providers hold all your data, leakage incidents are frequent, privacy and security is a concern.
You don’t have a say: Your data is utilized, analyzed, and even cashed out by the platforms, while you, as the real owner of the data, have little control and revenue.
MEMO was built to solve these pain points, MEMO is practicing a data revolution, let the data back to the user, but also let the data live, become “smart” and “controllable”.
II. What is MEMO programmable storage?
Simply put, MEMO programmable storage, is to let your data is not just “stored” there, but also has the “management” and “interactive” ability. It allows you to define rules for the data, so that the data can automatically perform tasks according to your wishes, and even allows developers to build custom logic around your data, thus creating a more dynamic and personalized experience for the application and the end user.
So how does MEMO do this?
Decentralized Storage (DePIN): Decentralizing Data for Greater Security
MEMO uses the DePIN network to decentralize data storage on numerous nodes around the world. This means that your data is no longer centrally stored on a giant company’s servers, which greatly reduces the risk of data leakage and censorship. The more decentralized your data is, the more secure it is and the less likely it is to be attacked.
Your own Data DID: Your data, your way!
MEMO also provides a decentralized digital identity (Data DID) for each piece of data, which is not only your “digital passport” but also a symbol of your data ownership. It binds your data to your unique identity (DID), ensuring that only you can truly own, access and manage your data. Your data, now has its own exclusive “ID card”, and this card only listen to you.
Intelligent Rules and Custom Logic: Enabling Data to Automatically Perform Tasks on Your Terms
This is the core appeal of programmable storage. You can set up a variety of “smart rules” and “custom logic” for your data. For example, you can set various “smart rules” and “custom logic” for your data:
Time Trigger: Set “This lease contract data will be automatically deleted one month after the end of the lease term.”
Event Trigger: “When my fitness data reaches a certain yearly goal, a badge is automatically unlocked and shared to my Web3 social accounts.”
CONDITIONAL AUTHORIZATION: “This portion of the photo can only be viewed by my family members in specified locations.”
DEVELOPER CUSTOMIZATION: Developers can use these rules to build all sorts of innovative applications around the data you authorize. For example, a decentralized social app could read your publicly authorized post data and personalize recommendations based on user preferences.
Secure Interaction: What’s more, you can also allow other users or apps to securely interact with your data without altering the original content. This means that developers can read your encrypted data to perform calculations (e.g., to provide you with an AI analytics report) without needing to know the specifics of the data, protecting your privacy and ensuring the original integrity of the data.
III. Programmable storage, what does it bring you?
In addition to being a technological innovation, MEMO’s programmable storage brings a series of tangible benefits:
Absolute Data Sovereignty: Your data truly belongs to you and is completely under your control. You have the highest level of control over your data, including the freedom to view, modify, authorize, and even completely close the data to the public. This means you can withdraw authorization at any time, so that your data from the Internet completely disappeared. Say goodbye to passive acceptance and open the era of active management and free disposal.
Automatic Data Management and Value Addition: Your data is no longer an asset sleeping in a centralized server, but a digital asset that can create value for you. By setting intelligent rules, data can automatically serve you, such as automatically archiving outdated files to save storage space. What’s more, with your explicit consent and strict authorization, your high-quality data can be securely licensed to AI models for learning training, market analysis, or other commercial uses, and you, as a data contributor, will receive a fair share of the benefits as a result. This opens up a whole new revenue stream for data owners, turning data from a potential liability to a real asset.
Say goodbye to data silos: With programmable storage, your data is no longer “locked in” to one platform. With standardized protocols and your DID identity, your data can flow freely and securely across applications and platforms, breaking down traditional platform barriers. This means that the content you post on social media can be easily synced to your personal blog; your health data can be licensed to multiple fitness or medical apps for personalized services, truly enabling data interoperability.
IV. Examples of Practical Scenarios
MEMO’s programmable storage features will play an increasingly important role in the future of digital life:
Your private data vault: All your sensitive personal data, including medical records, genetic data, financial bills, educational certificates, are encrypted and stored in your MEMO programmable vault. You can set exactly: which doctors can view only a certain part of your medical records for a specific period of time; your bank or insurance company can audit your financial data for a specific purpose without being able to copy or hold it for a long period of time, after obtaining a one-time authorization from you; and even your identifying information can be used for identity verification or eligibility confirmation without revealing the content through ZK Zero Knowledge Proof. This makes your privacy more secure than ever before.
Intelligent Fuel for AI: Future AI will rely more on massive, diverse, and high-quality real data to learn and evolve. Your personal data, under your strict authorization and programmable control, can become “smart fuel” for AI learning. For example, you can empower AI to analyze your exercise data, sleep patterns, and eating habits to customize a fitness program or health advice that best matches your physical condition, without worrying about data misuse.
The Powerful Cornerstone of DApps: Imagine a Web3 game where your game assets (equipment, characters) and game progress data are no longer stored on a central server, but in programmable storage at MEMO. You can freely transfer your assets between games; your game data can automatically drive the unlocking of a chain of achievements; and even other developers can develop widgets based on your game data that don’t affect the original game but provide additional services. This is exactly the infinite possibilities that programmable storage brings to DApps.
