Architecting the Blockchain for Failure
In this talk I’ll be discussing some of the different approaches taken in the Ethereum blockchain for handling failure.
We’ll cover the public Ethereum blockchain and the steps taken to ensure a robust execution environment for this massively decentralised computer.
We’ll also talk about some of the challenges faced in private consortium network deployments and how the technology had been adapted to service different business needs.
