Disclosed are examples of systems, apparatus, devices, computer program products, and methods implementing aspects of digital content retrieval using a decentralized content fabric. In some implementations, fabric nodes of an overlay network are provided. A first fabric node is configured to: determine, responsive to a client request for a content object part, that the content object part is not stored locally at the first fabric node; identify a second one or more fabric nodes as a best match; send a network request for the content object part to the second one or more fabric nodes; obtain the content object part from the second one or more fabric nodes; and process the content object part with further content object parts to produce the digital content for the client.
