Abstract

The consortium blockchain is deployed in many key industries because decentralization is irreversible and traceable. However, the storage system of the alliance chain usually adopts a full copy method, which leads to an explosive increase in storage overhead over time. What is worse, this will become a hidden threshold for companies to join the alliance to a greater extent and then evolve into an industry-centric model again. In this paper, we propose a novel storage solution named HotLT, which adopts a distributed storage system coding scheme to reduce the storage overhead of the alliance chain and enhance scalability. Secondly, to solve the bottleneck of concurrent access to encoded data and improve the average decoding speed, HotLT dynamically adjusts the generating matrix during the encoding process to adopt different encoding strategies for data blocks of different hot. Finally, the data access frequency is further divided, low-complexity coding is performed on data with high access frequency, and high-complexity coding is performed on cold data. Compared with the encoding time of traditional LT encoding, the experimental results show that the encoding time of HotLT is almost the same, and its average access speed gradually approaches the speed of direct reading as the proportion of access hot data increases.
