Quorum based SMR, or State Machine Replication, is a distributed computing approach that maintains a consistent, ordered log of operations across multiple nodes by requiring a supermajority of participants to agree on each step. This method ensures fault tolerance and data consistency even if some nodes fail or act maliciously. It forms the basis for many distributed ledger technologies.
Context
This consensus mechanism is a foundational concept in various blockchain and distributed system designs, particularly in permissioned networks. Discussions often center on optimizing quorum sizes and communication protocols to balance security with performance. News related to enterprise blockchain solutions or inter-chain communication often references the effectiveness of quorum-based SMR in achieving reliable agreement.
