What is an IPFS gateway?
IPFS is the short for “Interplanetary File System.” IPFS exists to be a very powerful protocol that allows for the hosting of content via a decentralized peer-to-peer network and it also utilizes cryptography to ensure that the content it host are immutable. While we still use the HTTP protocol to source the web, we must also trust that the service providers are not compromised and they content were sourcing is actually what’s being served.
This is where IPFS plays a pivotal role, it would allow us to swiftly store and retrieve content based on a cryptographic hash called the CID.
4EVERLAND public gateway
We have an enormous number of IPFS public gateway services out there, some are entirely public, meaning that anyone across the globe can view or use them without any interference. Come to think of it, freebies do get much attention and public gateway is no different! There could be too much traffic, which could cause the gateway to fail, as a result of this, many public gateways will prevent too much content being served at the same time by using rate limiting.
Keep in mind that public gateways relatively slow, loading content served on public gateways can take forever to load, and may not be suitable for serving large amounts of data. The public gateway is globally accelerated and absolutely free to all users, but it’s not as powerful as a dedicated gateway! Dedicated gateway allows your content to be delivered within a matter of minutes. To set up your own dedicated gateway, navigate to the 4EVERLAND dashboard and start deploying.
Branding Your Dedicated Gateway
It is worth mentioning that the 4EVERLAND dedicated gateways can either be set to be open or restricted. This means users can control how they access their data; whether they want to only access pinned content on 4EVERLAND account via the gateway or whether they want to be able to access any content hosted on the entire IPFS network through the gateway.

Following that, brands can deliver IPFS content to their platforms quickly and reliably with dedicated gateways. More so, dedicated gateways will also play a key role for blockchain gaming’s future. With dedicated gateways, they can control their own content and display it on their own platforms.
