Abstract
In a hyper ledger-based blockchain network system, in order to adjust latency and throughput required by a specific hyper ledger-based network, by using a block size, an endorsement policy, the number of channels, and the number of vCPUs allocation, the latency and the throughput desired by a user are maintained.
Claims13
A method for enhancing throughput of a blockchain network, executed by a processor of a node constituting the blockchain network, comprising steps of:
- (a) designing and setting target latency in the blockchain network in advance;
- (b) measuring latency for the blockchain network;
- (c) comparing the target latency set in advance with the measured latency;
- and
- (d) adjusting one or two or more of a block size, the number of channels, and an endorsement policy according to the comparison result,
- wherein the latency is allowed to be decreased.
A blockchain network comprising a plurality of nodes which store and execute automatically a chain code,
- wherein the chain code configured to store a preset target latency, compare the target latency with a latency measured in real time, and adjust a block size so as to maintain the target latency according to a comparison result;
- and,
- wherein the target latency is a latency required for a consensus process in the blockchain network, and
- wherein the measured latency is a latency required to fill a block constituting one block size.
