Blockchain technology and geographic information system
the relationship between blockchain and big data is not very big. The main purpose of big data is to manage massive data, and the core of blockchain is to achieve high security and high reliability of data without centralized intermediary accounting
therefore, blockchain and big data do not conflict with or replace each other. They are completely different solutions for data in different scenarios.
From the perspective of technology and architecture, I will tell you my understanding of blockchain in common language
what is blockchain? In a word, blockchain is a storage system. To be more specific, blockchain is a distributed storage system without an administrator and each node has all the data
What are the common storage systems like
as shown in the figure above, the bottom is data, and the top can write data. A space to store data, a software to manage data, provide an interface to write data, this is the storage system. For example, MySQL is the most common storage system
What are the problems of ordinary storage system? There are at least two common problems
the first is the problem of non high availability. There is a dangerous place for data. In technical terms, data is not highly available
The second problem is that there is only one write point. In technical terms, it is a single point of control
How do ordinary storage systems usually solve these two problems
in fact, MySQL can do a master-slave synchronization of al master, master-slave synchronization of al master, two nodes can be written at the same time. If you want to do a multi room multi live data center, in fact, multi room multi live data synchronization. What we should emphasize here is that multi-point writing often leads to the consistency problem of writing conflicts. Take MySQL as an example, suppose that the attribute of a table is self incrementing ID, then the data in the database is 1234 now. If one of the nodes writes and inserts a piece of data, it may become 5, and then these 5 pieces of data are synchronized to another master node, Before synchronization, if another write node inserts a piece of data, a piece of data with self incrementing ID of 5 will be generated. Then, after the generation, synchronize to another node, and the synchronized data will conflict with the two local 5's after it arrives, which will lead to synchronization failure and write consistency conflict. This problem will occur in the case of multi-point writing
how to ensure consistency in multi-point writing
the reform "Swan class" gives you more technical work
A: application fields of blockchain technology
I. financial field
blockchain has great potential application value in international exchange, letter of credit, equity registration, stock exchange and other financial fields
Second, the Internet of things and logisticsblockchain can also be naturally combined in the field of Internet of things and logistics
through the blockchain, we can rece the logistics cost, trace the proction and transportation process of goods, and improve the efficiency of supply chain management
Third, in the field of public service, blockchain is closely related to people's proction and life in the fields of public management, energy and transportation. However, the centralization of these fields also brings some problems, which can be transformed by blockchain Fourthly, in the field of digital right, through blockchain technology, works can be authenticated to prove the existence of text, video, audio and other works and ensure the authenticity and uniqueness of ownership In the field of insurance, insurance institutions are responsible for fund collection, investment and claim settlement, and often have higher management and operation costs Sixth, the data stored on the public welfare fieldblockchain is highly reliable and tamperable, which is naturally suitable for social public welfare scenarios
blockchain can also be naturally combined in the field of Internet of things and logistics
through blockchain, we can rece logistics costs, trace the proction and delivery process of goods, and improve the efficiency of supply chain management
this field is considered as a promising application direction of blockchain.
