# Overview | ||
|
||
A gateway is a server that acts as an intermediary between a client and a decentralized storage network. It allows users to access and retrieve data stored on the network. | ||
|
||
### Features | ||
|
||
- **Save Development Time:** Simplify decentralized file management by serving as an intermediary between clients and the storage network, reducing the need for multiple IPFS gateways and streamlining development. | ||
- **Faster and high availability: E**nable fast downloads for decentralized storage through a reliable global infrastructure, simplifying data access and retrieval. | ||
- **Censorship resistant:** Store your data with greater privacy and security using our decentralized storage solution. | ||
|
||
### Pricing & Billing | ||
|
||
**Free Tier** | ||
|
||
- Ideal for small teams and individuals who require basic features. | ||
- **Features:** | ||
- 100 requests per second rate limit | ||
|
||
**Pro** Tier | ||
|
||
- Ideal for teams that require a higher level of customization and support | ||
- **Features:** | ||
- 100 requests per second rate limit | ||
|

# How it works | ||
|
||
To read data from IPFS, you need an [IPFS Gateway](https://docs.ipfs.tech/concepts/ipfs-gateway/). This allows you to access data from the IPFS protocol on browsers and other HTTP clients, such as when building an application using the Contract [SDK](https://portal.thirdweb.com/sdks). | ||
|
||
When a user requests data from the network, the request is sent to the gateway. The gateway then retrieves the data from the decentralized storage network and returns it to the user. | ||

For developers, Gateway reduces the complexity of decentralized file management which requires fetching from multiple IPFS gateways.` |
