High Concurrency

Definition

High concurrency means a system can handle many operations or transactions happening simultaneously. In the context of blockchain and distributed systems, high concurrency indicates the ability of a network or protocol to process a large number of independent transactions or computations at the same time. This capability is critical for achieving high transaction throughput and scalability, enabling the system to support a substantial user base and complex decentralized applications. It addresses the challenge of processing parallel requests efficiently.
