PROCÉDÉS ET APPAREIL POUR UNE BASE DE DONNÉES DISTRIBUÉE QUI PERMET LA SUPPRESSION D'ÉVÉNEMENTS

摘要

In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a memory associated with an instance of a distributed database at a compute device configured to be included within a first group of compute devices. The apparatus is configured to determine an order for each event from the set of events based on different configurations of an event consensus protocol. The different configurations are logically related to different configurations of compute devices that implement the distributed database. The apparatus is configured to determine a current state of the instance of the distributed database based on the order determined for each event from the set of events and generate a signed state associated with the instance of the distributed database based on a hash value associated with the current state. The apparatus sends a signal to post into the instance of the distributed database an event that includes a transaction indicative of the signed state.
