Specifically, in contrast to Keepstore: +* A client writing through Keepproxy generates less network traffic: the client sends a single copy of a data block, and Keepproxy sends copies to the appropriate Keepstore servers. +* A client can write through Keepproxy without precomputing content hashes. Notably, the browser-based upload feature in Workbench requires Keepproxy. +* Keepproxy checks API token validity before processing requests.
