A non-transitory computer readable storage media having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a computer system, the instructions cause the computer system to perform the following operations:

• receiving a transaction for a blockchain to update a data record persistently stored on the blockchain, the transaction specifying updated values for one or more of a plurality of data elements of the data record;
• and
• updating correlated data records separate from the blockchain in a database system to match the updated values for the data record in the blockchain.

A computer system comprising:

• a non-transitory computer readable medium to store instructions including an update interface;
• and
• a processor coupled to the non-transitory computer readable medium to execute the update interface, the update interface to receive a transaction for a blockchain to update a data record persistently stored on the blockchain, the transaction specifying updated values for one or more of a plurality of data elements of the data record, and to update correlated data records separate from the blockchain in a database system to match the updated values for the data record in the blockchain.
