By now, we have learnt about plenty of blockchains like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ethereum 2.0, Hyperledger, Fabric 2.0, Hyperledger Indy, Hyperledger Sawtooth etc, in our previous blogs. Each has its own features and its own different purpose for which it is built. Blockchain was struggling for long in its complete adaptability by organizations due to scalability issues and interoperability issues. While Ethereum 2.0 tried to resolve the scalability issue for the Ethereum blockchain, Layer 2 Scaling solutions like Bitcoin Lightning Network & Ethereum Plasma also were designed to address the issue. Blockchain bridges and Polkadot were developed to take care of interoperability issues in blockchain.

Cardano Blockchain is a blockchain network that facilitates the transfer of digital funds on its platform. But what makes Cardano blockchain unique is that it implements layered architecture to solve both the issues of scalability and interoperability.

In this blog, let us understand what Cardano blockchain is and how it works in order to achieve scalability and interoperability.

What is Cardano Blockchain and its principles?

Cardano Blockchain was invented with the intention of filling the loopholes or other issues that other Blockchains were facing. First and foremost was addressing the issue of scalability. Hence, Cardano blockchain was designed in a layered manner where accounting and computation were to be performed on different layers. This automatically reduces the load on the base layer and allows the system to scale itself for more network traffic.
Building forkless upgrades to already deployed applications was also one of the objectives with which Cardano Blockchain was built. Cardano blockchain was built with a decentralized funding mechanism in mind that could help building future DeFi apps easily.

Cardano Blockchain for Scalability

Scalability of any blockchain is measured by the rate of transactions it processes every second. The time delay in transaction processing, the latency makes the entire system slow and lagging. It is important to take into account the network structure as well as the amount of data on the network while calculating scalability. Cardano blockchain uses the Ouroboros PoS algorithm in order to be able to process a large number of transactions. It also follows the RINA - Recursive Inter-Network Architecture to create a heterogeneous network. Cardano blockchain also follows the concept called as Partitioning where users/nodes only have the relevant information regarding a transaction and not the entire data. This significantly reduces the network storage issue and more resources are available in order to achieve supreme scalability.

Cardano Blockchain for Interoperability

Cardano is capable of implementing cross-chain transfers without the need of any centralized exchanges. This is possible because of sidechains. A sidechain is nothing but a chain that runs in parallel with the main chain but is connected to the main chain. This side chain is used to communicate with other blockchains to establish interoperability between the two and facilitate transfers. If these transfers include exchange between the crypto and the legacy world, it becomes extremely difficult to trace back the data and personal information regarding the transaction. This is where Cardano blockchain is researching as to how interoperability between the crypto and legacy world can be eased.

Cardano Blockchain - Conclusion

Cardano Blockchain is equipped with solving the two most complex issues that blockchains face - scalability and interoperability. It is also a credible smart contract development platform, just like Ethereum. In the coming days, Cardano blockchain will be on everybody’s mind just for the sheer ease with which it solves the most critical challenges.
