## Documentation

# Walrus Upload Relay

## About

> **Walrus Upload Relay** is a powerful new companion binary for the Walrus TypeScript SDK that makes it easier and faster for apps to upload data to Walrus. The relay acts as a specialized, high-performance lane for an application's data, taking over the task of encoding and [distributing data](https://www.walrus.xyz/blog/how-walrus-red-stuff-encoding-works) shards across Walrus’s decentralized network of storage nodes. Designed to be more lightweight than the Publisher, any developer can run a Relay for their own applications, so you don't have to rely on a third-party operator. Plus, aspiring Relay operators can easily set up a Relay and get paid for the service in SUI.

This template used an additional Auth Proxy to act as a reverse proxy for the upload-relay and validate all incoming request for valid JWT bearer token

## Deployment

Please make sure to add 2 required variables:
- `JWT_TOKEN`: Secret to validate incoming request. This should be **the same** with secret set in you **backend**.
- `SUI_NETWORK`: Network to run in, must be "mainnet" or "testnet"
