Oxorro - FAQ

what is oxorro? oxorro is a decentralized file storage application built on xandeum’s storage layer for solana it gives users a familiar file manager experience for creating file systems, uploading files, organizing folders, reading data, moving files, and connecting storage operations to smart contract workflows what is xandeum? xandeum is a decentralized storage layer for solana it gives solana applications access to scalable, random access storage, so apps can work with much larger amounts of data than they could store directly on chain what problem does oxorro solve? oxorro is built for operational data that needs to remain available, usable, and under the user’s control it helps reduce reliance on centralized providers that can fail, delete accounts, restrict access, change policies, or become a single point of control how is oxorro different from traditional decentralized storage? traditional decentralized storage is often closer to archive storage you upload a file and retrieve it later oxorro is designed to work more like a real file system files can be organized, moved, deleted, and updated without treating every change as a completely new static upload what is a file system in oxorro? a file system is your storage space inside oxorro it contains your files and folders and is created through the big bang operation what is big bang? big bang is the operation that creates a new oxorro file system once the file system exists, you can start adding folders, files, and data to it what is armageddon? armageddon is the operation that deletes or destroys a file system it is the counterpart to big bang big bang creates the file system, armageddon removes it what is peek ? peek is the operation used to read or view data from a file system it lets oxorro retrieve data from xandeum storage so it can be displayed or used by an application what is poke ? poke is a write operation it is used to put data into xandeum storage through the solana connected storage flow what is ingest ? ingest is the high throughput upload path for larger files instead of pushing all file data through many small solana transactions, ingest is designed to send larger amounts of data more directly into the xandeum storage network when should i use ingest ? use ingest for larger files or upload workloads where sending data through many solana transactions would be slower, less practical, or more expensive for smaller writes and normal file system operations, poke may be the better fit what are pnodes? pnodes are provider nodes in the xandeum network they provide storage capacity for the decentralized storage layer and help make xandeum data available without relying on a single cloud company or server operator what is redundancy? redundancy controls how strongly data is protected across xandeum’s decentralized storage infrastructure higher redundancy means the system has more protection against storage provider failure the available settings may depend on the current app configuration, so users should follow the options shown inside oxorro when creating or managing a file system can oxorro preview files? yes oxorro can display common file types in a user friendly way, including json files, csv files, and image files such as pngs can i create folders and move files? yes oxorro supports folders, subfolders, and moving files through signed storage operations what fees are involved? oxorro uses solana connected storage infrastructure, so users should expect storage related transactions and fees to use sol some operations may involve solana account costs as well as storage fees the app will show the relevant transaction details before you confirm an operation what rpc should i use? oxorro will provide a list of supported rpc options inside the app these may include foundation provided access and partner rpc providers for regular use, larger workloads, teams, or organization accounts, a partner rpc may provide the best experience is oxorro available now? oxorro is xandeum’s first major user facing storage application and is currently in an early access phase selected organizations can request access through the oxorro website
