Fujitsu speeds up transaction processing on the blockchain

 

Using its proprietary analysis technology, Fujitsu learned that, under network conditions in which a response time of about 64 milliseconds or less is required, such as the case where a consortium-type blockchain is operated at multiple locations within Japan, communications between the applications and the blockchain platform during transaction processing are the primary cause of bottlenecks.

 

富士通は所有する分析技術を使って以下の点を学んだ。64ミリ秒かそれ以下が求められる環境下、例えば複数の場所で使用されるコンソーシアム型で、アプリケーションとブロックチェーン基盤との間での取引プロセスは、ボトルネックの最初の原因となる。

 

Fujitsu implemented this technology in Hyperledger Fabric v0.6.1 and measured transaction performance on a blockchain platform consisting of four servers. Whereas the previous method could handle 500 transactions per second, Fujitsu Laboratories achieved 1,350 transactions per second using this newly developed technology, an improvement of approximately 2.7 times.

 

4つのサーバーで構成されるブッロクチェーン基盤で取引パフォーマンスを計測した。これまでの方法だと毎秒500取引を扱うことができたが、富士通総研は新開発技術で毎秒1350取引を達成し、約2.7倍の改善に成功した。
