Recently, the popularity of @irys_xyz has been at an all-time high. Taking advantage of the weekend, I want to discuss its deep impact on infrastructure projects like Allnfra.
The core pain point faced by traditional infrastructure projects is data silos. Storage is separate from computation, and smart contracts are separate from both; complex cross-protocol calls are needed for collaboration between layers.
🔍 Irys's Programmable Data
Irys achieves native integration of the storage layer and execution layer through IrysVM, making data no longer a static asset, but an executable asset that carries instructions.
This means that smart contracts can directly read and modify underlying storage data without the need for cross-chain or cross-protocol calls. The data itself can execute logic for ownership verification, royalty distribution, access control, and more.
⚡️ Cost Structure
Irys's storage costs are 30 times cheaper than AWS and 16 times cheaper than Arweave. But the real value lies not in the price, but in the development efficiency gained from a unified architecture.
Traditional solutions require stitching services across different protocols, with gas fees and delays for each call. Irys's integrated design eliminates these costs directly.
🔄 Shift in Development Model
Previously, building infrastructure applications required:
1️⃣ Choosing a storage protocol
2️⃣ Choosing a computation layer
3️⃣ Handling cross-chain bridging and data synchronization
4️⃣ Optimizing communication delays between layers
Now, on Irys, you only need to:
1️⃣ Deploy smart contracts
2️⃣ Data automatically carries execution logic
📊 Performance Advantages
Irys handles over 100,000 TPS with near-zero latency. Compared to the high latency of traditional decentralized storage like Filecoin, the difference is not just one order of magnitude.
For Allnfra application scenarios that require real-time data processing, the performance improvement leads to a qualitative change.
—————————————————————————
@irys_xyz's programmable data is redefining the technology stack of infrastructure. When data becomes an executable asset, traditional layered architectures become a thing of the past.
