IPNS.co | InterPlanetary File System HTTP Proxy

IPNS.co is a very fast proxy to redirect HTTP Query to several IPFS Public gateway HTTP server.

This implementation can help developers to use only one URL to all IPFS files without any risk of breaking the server bandwidth. You can be sure that the servers capacity is large enough to handle all traffic.

This code has been written without any dependency to run as faster as possible. IPNS.co use DNSSEC, DNS Anycast, low latency DNS and IP resolved to different servers to handle all trafic.

Each IPFS gateway can break if a lot of files is downloaded simultaneous, this can help to avoid this risk.

To run your own instance of ipfsProxyHTTP (updated by Git Pull), you only only require PHP>=5.6 and a Web server.
