Decentralized Systems Architecture

Definition

Decentralized systems architecture refers to the design of a system where control and decision-making are distributed across multiple participants rather than residing with a single central authority. These systems operate without a central point of failure, enhancing resilience and censorship resistance. Each participant holds a copy of the data or contributes to processing, fostering transparency and immutability. This design principle is fundamental to blockchain technology and distributed ledgers.
