Sharding is the prevalent approach to breaking the trilemma of simultaneously achieving decentralization security and scalability in traditional blockchain systems which are implemented as replicated state machines relying on atomic broadcast for consensus on an immutable chain of valid transactions.

 

Sharding promotes the scaling of blockchains to address the increasing demands given that it can ensure quicker and more effective validations of transactions.

 

Discover how Layer 2 solutions like Arbitrum Optimism and zkSync are scaling Ethereum reducing fees boosting speed and driving mass blockchain adoption beyond finance.

 

Learn how blockchain sharding technology works its advantages in improving scalability and why it's a game-changer for distributed ledger systems.

 

FAQs What is sharding in blockchain? Sharding in blockchain is a scaling technique that partitions data into smaller subsets for faster transaction processing. How does sharding improve blockchain? Sharding improves blockchain by increasing network capacity reducing latency and promoting scalability. Is sharding only used in public blockchains?

 

Previous sharding blockchain solutions suffered from tight coupling between functional modules making it challenging to achieve optimal security performance and scalability. Building upon this foundation the authors present a universal composable method for composing sharding blockchains in a flexible manner.

 

Sharding could be the key to allowing blockchains to scale while maintaining the privacy and security features that make the distributed ledger technology so hot. But there are hurdles that need ...
