### InterPlanetary Linked Data (IPLD)
-IPFS uses InterPlanetary Linked Data (IPLD) to work with CIDs and content-addressed data. IPFS uses IPLD to represent relationships between content-addressed data, such as file directories and other hierarchical structures, using a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) called a Merkle DAG. Using IPLD for the general functionality, IPFS is able provide a more tailored, specific mechanism for representing and addressing files, directories, and their symlinks, called [UnixFS](../concepts/file-systems.md#unix-file-system-unixfs). With UnixFS, IPFS can chunk and link data too big to fit in a single block, and use the chunked representation to store and manage the data.
