Blockchain mandates that every node store the whole chain’s history in order to address trust issues in the network. And the storage requirement becomes extremely high, severely affecting the chain’s scalability. To solve such a problem, many optimizations of storage have been proposed. In this paper, existing ways of blockchain storage scalability are described in two categories: off-chain and on-chain. The off-chain way is combined with various distributed and nondistributed storage systems. And on-chain is optimized by changing its block structure, storage rules, or technology. Blockchain technology with scalable storage has been applied in the medical industry. We assess and contrast the methods’ latency, security, and cost. And we point out the problems and challenges of the existing approaches and give an outlook on the future.
期刊介绍:
Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW): The Journal of Collaborative Computing and Work Practices is devoted to innovative research in computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW). It provides an interdisciplinary and international forum for the debate and exchange of ideas concerning theoretical, practical, technical, and social issues in CSCW.
The CSCW Journal arose in response to the growing interest in the design, implementation and use of technical systems (including computing, information, and communications technologies) which support people working cooperatively, and its scope remains to encompass the multifarious aspects of research within CSCW and related areas.
The CSCW Journal focuses on research oriented towards the development of collaborative computing technologies on the basis of studies of actual cooperative work practices (where ‘work’ is used in the wider sense). That is, it welcomes in particular submissions that (a) report on findings from ethnographic or similar kinds of in-depth fieldwork of work practices with a view to their technological implications, (b) report on empirical evaluations of the use of extant or novel technical solutions under real-world conditions, and/or (c) develop technical or conceptual frameworks for practice-oriented computing research based on previous fieldwork and evaluations.
