Data Deletion

Last updated 1 year ago

Was this helpful?

This section introduces the data deletion process in the CESS network.

Active Data Deletion

Active data refers to the data uploaded by users to the CESS network. Users have all control over the data they upload, and they have the right to delete their data.

When a user deletes their data, the data content will not be deleted from the CESS network if there are multiple owners. If data is no longer owned (has no owner), the CESS node will delete the data from the hard disk.

The overall flow is depicted as follows:

Idle Data Deletion

The idle file is generated by consensus nodes in the TEE environment and stored in storage nodes. Each idle file is unique across the entire network. There are generally two cases where idle data needs to be deleted:

  • The storage node has stored new active data and needs to delete the corresponding amount of idle data.

  • The Restore mechanism of the storage node detects invalid idle data and requires reporting data loss and deleting the data.

The overall flow is depicted as follows:
