In the present complicated CIoT, data utilisation is crucial, which is why data management has grown in significance in the modern world. Among the difficulties posed by centralised organisational data processing systems include delayed data processing, potential limited scalability, inadequate security, and perhaps ineffective data integrity management. The decentralised nature of blockchain technology makes these challenges highly likely to be solved. The suggested method for using blockchain technology for distributed data storage in CIoT systems is presented in this chapter. The subject covers identifying the details, such as types of consensus and the history of development that are pertinent to the study of blockchain technology. It also goes on to explain the architectural underpinnings needed to align blockchain with CIoT, particularly with regard to data storage, data flow, and security enhancements. The chapter also discusses the use of hybrid blockchains, permissioned/private, and permissionless/public decentralised data management systems in CIoT environments.
