SHANGHAI, March 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Molecular Data Inc. ("Molecular Data" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: MKD), a leading technology-driven platform in China's chemical industry, today announced that following the collaboration with China's listed UCloud to further drive digital transformation to upgrade the chemical, medical, and new materials industries, Molecular Data has signed a 3 year IPFS (Interplanetary File System) customized operational arrangement with an renowned industry partner to gear up its data services.

Molecular Data is addressing the inadequacies faced in the various industries including deploying Blockchain solutions accordingly. Without IPFS, file storage costs and efficiency remains high.
