Many cryptocurrency enthusiast or researchers come across post regarding the importance of scalability in the blockchain industry, and genuinely ponder what a scalable blockchain is all about.
Scalability is one of the most crucial aspects and issues the blockchain industry is faced with, and it has been the major focus of different blockchain Platform, which has attempted to curb this setback by improving their operating system, one way or another, since the inception of Bitcoin.
SCALABLE BLOCKCHAIN
Scalability or scalable blockchain has often been regarded as another name for a blockchain that can achieve a high TPS (transaction per second).
It's my desire to inform the public on why scalability is a core aspect of any blockchain, and how Chromia possesses the potential of positively contributing to the advancement of this area of the blockchain system, in other to allow tge community and industry grow, while bridging the gap between user information, and blockchain evolution.
SCALABILITY; This can also be referred to as a system's capability to handle an increasing amount of work or transactions. A system is said to possess setbacks when it has poor scalability, by being unable to easily allocate resources (e.g, computing power, servers, or bandwidth), and requires extra efforts that affects it's ability to cope wity increased workload.
Scalability also has to do with a blockchains ability to provide a rich experience, for its users, and its decentralized applications, irrespective of how many users or dapps engaged in it's platform, in other to achieve mass adoption.
ISSUE WITH GENERAL SCALABILITY OF BLOCKCHAIN PLATFORMS
Presently, there exist various Blockchains, that could be relatively referred to as 'scalable', yet their operating procedures and systems begs to differ with this consensus. This is due to it's ability of being unable to increasingly accommodate fluid, increasing amounts of transactions.
Hindrance in achieving absolute and efficient scalability both in transactions, user experience, and decentralized applications systems, is a pressing issue for the blockchain industry, as scalability is a key consideration, if a technology seeks to achieve mainstream adoption of it's technology.
SCALABILITY IN CHROMIA'S BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY
The team behind Chromia, understands the crucual importance of scalability, and has focused it's resources towards ensuring that decentralized applications are able to scale beyond what is currently deemed possible, while improving it's technology, by viewing it's dapps and users, not as a resident on a single blockchain, but as an experience that is provided by coordinating many independent platforms and protocols.
In other to create an efficient environment for it's dapps, Chromia features the following in its system:
1.) HORIZONTAL SCALING; This means that Chromia makes it possible for each DApp in its platform to have its own blockchain(s). Because each blockchain is run by a subset of nodes, it becomes possible to increase total throughput by increasing the number of nodes.
2.) Relational Programming Language; This is deeply integrated with the relational model of the blockchain, and it increases programmer's productivity and ensures application consistency.
3.) High I/O Throughput; Data queries and updates are delegated to a heavily optimized
relational database, allowing dapps to perform a large number of queries and data update
operations.
4.) PBFT-Style Consensus;Transactions can be confirmed within seconds.
CONCLUSION
There are many platforms that already exist, with promises of prospectively advancing scalability in the blockchain space, but none of them prioritize its dApps, it's technology, it's developers, and it's users, as Chromia does. With an improved/excellent user experience, coupled with advanced transactions capacity, and the efficiency to process 500+ TPS per dApps/sidechain (overall unlimited), compared to other platforms.
