Scaling Ontology with bloXroute

By Prof. Aleksandar Kuzmanovic

Before explaining how bloXroute helps Ontology blockchain scale, let us first see how the Ontology consensus protocol works.

Ontology’s consensus algorithm — VBFT, combines Proof of Stake (PoS), Verifiable Random Function (VRF), and Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT). The Ontology system consists of several networks and entities: (1) The consensus network consists of consensus nodes responsible for consensus on transaction requests within Ontology, block generation, maintaining the blockchain, and distributing consensus blocks to other nodes in the network. (2) The consensus candidate network nodes do not participate in consensus but remain synchronized with the consensus network and updated to the latest consensus block on the blockchain maintained by them in real-time. These nodes will also monitor consensus network status, validate consensus blocks, and assist in managing the Ontology network. (3) The synchronous network nodes verify transactions received from the end users, and send them to the consensus nodes. Typically, an end-user (e.g., a dApp) will install and communicate to a local synchronous node. Necessarily, synchronous nodes also receive blocks generated by the consensus network.

So how does bloXroute help Ontology?

In summary, Ontology and bloXroute are working together on developing bloXroute/Ontology gateway. Once developed, it will be made available to the Ontology community, providing a direct access to the bloXroute’s BDN. This will ensure that Ontology’s blockchain is efficient, scalable, and decentralized, ready to absorb a traffic surge that will inevitably come from its numerous applications.
