4EVERLAND: Reconstructing a New Paradigm of Web3 Infrastructure

With the core underlying capabilities of integrated storage, networking, and computing, 4EVERLAND is committed to delivering one-stop core cloud services efficiently for Web3 developers and users to meet the needs of the Web3 ecosystem.

Introduction

With the continuous expansion of the application scope of blockchain, traditional centralized infrastructure is increasingly unable to meet the strict requirements of Web3 applications in terms of security, reliability, and decentralization. Decentralized storage and computing are becoming the basic needs of the entire blockchain ecosystem. As an important participant in the Arweave ecosystem, 4EVERLAND is redefining industry standards through its innovative architecture and business model.

4EVERLAND is a Web3 distributed cloud computing platform that has launched an efficient and decentralized ecosystem called 4EVER Network. The network dynamically allocates global resources and provides comprehensive cloud services driven by decentralized technology. The core of its architecture is the 4EVER DePIN aggregator, which intelligently integrates decentralized infrastructure solutions from multiple domains, including Arweave for permanent storage resources, Akash and IO.net for computing resources, and Fleek and Cloudflare for network resources. With the core underlying capabilities of integrated storage, network, and computing, 4EVERLAND is committed to efficiently delivering one-stop core cloud services required by Web3 developers and users.

Existing Issues with Web3 Infrastructure

Web3 infrastructure has evolved from providing single-function solutions to offering integrated platforms. In the early stages, individual projects often focused on specific pain points, such as the immutable P2P storage and transmission of IPFS or Ethereum's emphasis on smart contracts. While this specialization has fostered innovation, it has also led to infrastructure fragmentation. With the explosive growth of decentralized finance (DeFi), NFTs, and other applications after 2020, the market demand for integrated infrastructure has also significantly increased. In the corresponding growth market, Arweave's disruption of the traditional concept of permanent storage has greatly reshaped the industry landscape, providing Web3 with a completely new set of solutions. However, in this process, we can still identify some challenges that the current Web3 infrastructure is facing:

1. Fragmentation: Developers often need to integrate multiple service providers to deploy complete applications.

2. High Technical Threshold: Most Web3 infrastructures have self-built standards and lack compatibility with Web2. This not only increases development costs but also limits the mass adoption of Web3 applications.

3. Balancing Performance and Decentralization: How to achieve high performance while maintaining decentralization, and finding an economically efficient storage solution, remains an unsolved problem.

These challenges have given rise to the demand for platforms like 4EVERLAND that provide integrated solutions for developers. The vision of 4EVERLAND is not only to offer independent services, but also to establish a comprehensive Web3 infrastructure ecosystem, similar to how people use AWS and Google Cloud in Web2.

4EVERLAND: Providing developers with a one-stop Dapp construction solution

4EVERLAND is a decentralized cloud computing platform that aims to provide efficient, secure, and scalable cloud services by integrating the decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) with idle resources contributed by the community. Like centralized clouds such as AWS, 4EVERLAND integrates various storage, network, and computing resources through its DePIN network structure 4EVER Network, and builds various middleware services and developer tools based on its powerful underlying capabilities, enabling developers to quickly and easily leverage the underlying functionality of the 4EVER network to efficiently build Web3.0 applications.

4EVER Network

4EVER Network is an important cornerstone of 4EVERLAND, integrating various idle resources to provide basic capabilities such as storage, network, and computing for the platform and its users. The basic architectural principle of 4EVER Network is to create an efficient and decentralized ecosystem that can dynamically allocate resources globally. This innovative design not only enhances the operational capabilities of the network, but also ensures that developers receive stable and reliable services, promoting the seamless operation of their applications.

4EVER Network consists of three key components, including the 4EVER Protocol, 4EVER DePIN Aggregator, and 4EVER Nodes. The 4EVER Protocol is the core framework for resource integration and management, ensuring the stability and reliability of resource providers. In addition, the 4EVER DePIN Aggregator interfaces with existing decentralized infrastructure networks, providing highly available storage, computing, and networking capabilities, while 4EVER Nodes enable community members to operate nodes and contribute virtual storage, computing, and networking resources, optimizing overall resource utilization.

4EVERLAND Core Products

DWeb Hosting

Currently, most decentralized applications (dApps) only achieve decentralization in their smart contract components, while their front-ends are typically hosted on centralized servers. With Hosting, developers can conveniently deploy front-end code to decentralized networks such as Arweave, IPFS, and BNB Greenfield, achieving end-to-end decentralization from the user interface to the backend.

Bucket, compatible with AWS S3

Bucket provides developers with an efficient decentralized data storage solution, supporting various protocols including Arweave and IPFS. Users can operate data through S3 API or Storage SDK to ensure the reliability, high redundancy, and security of data backups, while significantly reducing storage costs.

Global Acceleration Gateway

4EVERLAND's global acceleration gateway provides efficient data access capabilities for developers, including Arweave/IPFS. The gateway features automatic SSL certificate management, custom domain support, and global acceleration function, ensuring low latency and high availability through the creation of high-performance dedicated gateway services.

RPC

4EVERLAND provides high-performance RPC services, supporting multiple chains such as Ethereum, Polygon, BNBChain, and Optimism.

RaaS（Rollup as a Service）

The RaaS service of 4EVERLAND provides the ability to quickly create and manage second-layer solutions, supporting Ethereum and BNB Chain, etc. Developers only need to click the mouse to deploy Rollup, and the Arweave data backup function can ensure the permanent preservation of critical data, enhancing the verifiability and resilience of the second-layer blockchain.

AI RPC

4EVERLAND's AI RPC provides a unified interface for using various large-scale language models (LLMs), allowing users to discover, compare, and select models and pricing options based on their specific requirements, without dealing with the complexity of deploying these large and complex open-source LLMs. AI RPC enables users to connect to the most suitable models (open-source and proprietary), offering a range of models with different functionalities and expertise.

4EVERLAND's Synergy with Arweave's Ecosystem

As an important part of the Arweave ecosystem, 4EVERLAND has made significant progress in technology integration. By deeply embedding the Arweave protocol, 4EVERLAND simplifies the process for developers to access permanent storage solutions, significantly reducing the entry barrier. This collaboration is reflected not only in the technical level, but also in community building and resource sharing.
