Health monitoring of blockchain structure
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
first, how to ensure high availability
the common storage system usually uses "rendancy" to solve the problem of high availability. As shown in the figure above, if the data can be copied into several copies and rendant to multiple places, high availability can be guaranteed. The data in one place is hung, and there is data in other places. For example, the master-slave cluster of MySQL is the same principle, and the raid of disk is also the same principle
two points need to be emphasized in this place are: data rendancy often leads to consistency problems
1. For example, in the master-slave cluster of MySQL, there is actually a delay in reading and writing, which means there is a inconsistency in reading and writing in a short period of time. This is a side effect of data rendancy
The second point is that data rendancy often reces the efficiency of writing, because data synchronization also consumes resources. If you add two slave libraries, the write efficiency will be affected. The common storage system is to use rendancy to ensure the high availability of dataso the second question, ordinary storage system, can write more
the answer is yes, for example, take this graph as an example:
in fact, MySQL can do a master-slave synchronization of al masters, master-slave synchronization of al masters, 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

Blockchain technology is widely used. Under the integration of new technologies, the main application scenarios of blockchain include finance and insurance, intelligent manufacturing, intelligent environmental protection, energy and power, health care, ecation, culture and innovation, smart city, social welfare, agriculture and many other fields
-
blockchain + finance
blockchain can help financial institutions solve problems such as trust and data sharing
-
blockchain + right art

3. Blockchain + government
in statistics, voting, budget management and other aspects, blockchain can rece costs, improve efficiency, and increase transparency, so as to prevent the risk of failure of centralized system
4. Blockchain + insurance
fraud identification and risk prevention: by placing insurance claims under an unchangeable general ledger, blockchain helps to eliminate the common sources of fraud in the insurance instry
property insurance and accidental injury insurance: policies and shared ledgers recorded in the form of smart contracts can improve the efficiency of property insurance and accidental injury insurance
Health Insurance: blockchain technology enables medical records to be encrypted and shared among health service providers, thus improving the interoperability of the health insurance ecosystem
Reinsurance: the information security of reinsurance contracts on the blockchain platform can be ensured through the form of smart contracts, which can rece the amount of information and simplify the payment process between insurers and reinsurers
take the PPT big health protection ecological platform on the market as an example:
five applications of blockchain in the medical field:
1. In the aspect of EHR medical treatment, the main application of blockchain is the preservation of personal medical records, which can be understood as the electronic medical records on the blockchain. If you think of the medical record as an account book, originally it is in the hands of various hospitals, and the patients themselves do not master it, so the patients have no way to obtain their own medical records and historical information, which will cause great trouble for the patients to seek medical treatment, because the doctors can not fully understand your medical records. But now, if we can use blockchain technology to save, there will be historical data of personal medical care. Whether we see a doctor or plan for our own health, there will be historical data to use. The real master of this data is the patient himself, not a hospital or a third-party organization
2. DNA wallet gene and medical data can be safely stored by using blockchain technology and obtained by using private key, which will form a DNA wallet. This enables healthcare providers to share and count patient data safely, and helps pharmaceutical companies develop drugs more efficiently. And this model is graally being established
3. The development of bitcoin payment blockchain technology promotes bitcoin payment and gives patients more choices for insurance payment. Although it also depends on the development of bitcoin in the market, the insurance companies that provide this way also have greater advantages than their competitors. For health insurance companies, blockchain is being established as a part of financial services
4. Drug anti-counterfeiting is similar to coding anti-counterfeiting technology. For drugs using blockchain technology, there is a scraped surface on the surface of drug packaging box, and a special verification label under it, which is compared with blockchain technology to ensure the legitimacy of drugs
5. Protein folding e to the rapid process of protein folding, Stanford University previously relied on very expensive supercomputers to simulate the protein folding process. This approach is obviously expensive and has a single point of failure. By using blockchain, they can choose to use a huge distributed network for high-speed computing. This example will greatly attract other companies that use expensive supercomputers. With the development of medical technology, medical data is playing a more and more important role in the aspects of patient identity background, past medical history, and medical payment records. Medical data may be a person's most private data, but e to network operation errors or hacker attacks and other problems, in the past, these personal privacy data were leaked on a large scale. For example, anthem once leaked 80 million patient and employee records, and UCLA health once leaked 4.5 million patient data. The medical convenience brought by blockchain includes: as more and more health and preventive care are provided in a virtual environment, such as at home, at work and so on. Open and viable tracking, validation, and care delivery will become very important for patients, payers, suppliers, scientists, and regulators. The development of these new ohh blockchains in the clinical community will prepare for the study of patients' behavior, and for the important data access of supplier reimbursement, rule compliance, security monitoring and patient compliance in the future. Blockchain is a near perfect technology (not necessarily implemented at present). It can easily and safely access ooh data while protecting the maximum privacy, and rece the interest risk of all patients, including patients themselves, families, caregivers, clinics, suppliers, insurance companies and all stakeholders related to patients' health.
I learned about a project on the Internet before: akso health chain, which is engaged in blockchain health care project! Committed to solving the problem of health care data island! You can understand and pay attention to it (for reference only, no investment suggestions, thank you)
in the future, jinwowo will continue to tap the value of blockchain technology in the commercial field.
secondly, in most cases, once a new block is added to the end of the blockchain, the data records of the block can no longer be changed or deleted. This feature ensures the rigor of the database, that is, it cannot be tampered with.
