What is Blobfish data
We describe Blobfish Data as information of fleeting significance: useful for a task, decision or moment, but not something that automatically deserves indefinite storage. SolidFish gives that kind of data an intentional lifetime so storage can be reused instead of treating permanence as the default.
Why controlling Blobfish data is important
Digital services depend on physical infrastructure: servers, storage devices, networking, power, cooling, buildings and maintenance. The effect of one extra file is tiny, but unnecessary copies and indefinite retention add up across billions of users and services. SolidFish takes a deliberately modest position: if information is fleeting and no longer serves a purpose, choosing not to keep another cloud copy is a responsible habit. We do not claim a measured environmental saving for each share; the principle is simply that every little reduction in unnecessary persistence helps.
How can we identify this type of data
It does not necessarily mean that this type of data is altogether worthless but rather it is of fleeting value.
