A Hybrid System Model combines elements of both centralized and decentralized architectures to leverage the strengths of each. This approach often integrates a distributed ledger technology with traditional databases or off-chain computation. It seeks to achieve a balance between scalability, performance, and the security or transparency benefits of blockchain. Such models are designed to address the limitations of purely decentralized systems.
Context
Hybrid system models are increasingly relevant in enterprise blockchain applications where complete decentralization may not be practical or desirable for specific operational requirements. Discussions frequently involve determining the optimal balance between on-chain and off-chain processes to maximize efficiency and regulatory compliance. These models represent a pragmatic approach to blockchain adoption in established industries.
A new BFT protocol leverages a hybrid synchrony model to achieve up to 15x lower latency, preserving high fault tolerance for scalable decentralized systems.
