Improved PBFT refers to advancements and modifications made to the original Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance consensus algorithm. These enhancements typically aim to address limitations such as scalability issues, communication overhead, and the reliance on a fixed set of validators. The improvements often involve optimizing message passing, reducing latency, or introducing dynamic validator sets to enhance efficiency and decentralization in permissioned blockchain networks. These iterations seek to make PBFT more suitable for modern distributed systems.
Context
Improved PBFT algorithms are frequently discussed in the context of enterprise blockchain solutions and private networks where high throughput and deterministic finality are prioritized. The current situation involves ongoing research and implementation of various PBFT derivatives to meet specific industry requirements. A key debate revolves around the trade-offs between performance gains and the degree of decentralization maintained in these modified protocols. Future developments will likely focus on further increasing scalability and fault tolerance for diverse applications.
PoAh, a hybrid consensus, enhances PBFT with an authorization module, delivering resource-efficient, high-throughput, and confidential decentralized applications.
