The objective of this project is to provide the architecture of a serverless web publishing framework over structured Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. Contemporary web hosting technology is built around client-server based architecture, which has a number of inherent deficiencies including scalability issues, a single point of failure, administration overhead and hosting expenses. If the websites were distributed over a P2P network then there would be virtually no limitation on the number of users who can access a popular website; there will be no single point of failure as many peers will be hosting a website or parts of a website; there will be no need for expensive high-end web servers; finally, there will be no need for dedicated website administrators and experts for web server maintenance.
