Storing URL Shortener Links in The Decentralized Network

Abstract

This paper presents a model which delivers the prototype of an application that will store the URL shorten links in the decentralized network. Ethereum Blockchain is used for storing the links and also the proposed model overcomes the issues with earlier URL shorteners like Bitly and short URL. In this paper our research focuses on the two perspectives, viz: i) making a system design to handle traffic easily and ii) making such a system, which will remove the third party system. As a result, the proposed URL shortening service will give the users more trust to use this service with confidentiality, availability, and security consideration compared to the available used services.
