Fahad Rahman, Chafiq Titouna, Farid Naït‐Abdesselam · 2023
In Blockchain technology, distributed computing is based on trust assumption among independent nodes. Researchers are in never ending race to address the Blockchain scalability issues. In this research paper, Prioritised Sharding is introduced which is an innovative strategy based on prioritising nodes according to their performance using real-time analytics and advanced algorithms to enhance the scalability of Blockchain systems. Experimental results demonstrate notable improvements in query response times, data availability, and overall system throughput. Furthermore, our model reduces the potential bottlenecks typically associated with traditional sharding techniques. This work contributes significantly to the discourse on scalable data management strategies and offers promising applications for large-scale, data-intensive enterprises.
