Abstract

Blockchain is a new decentralized storage system that combines cryptography, consensus algorithms, distributed storage and other technologies. The full node redundant storage of data on the blockchain provides extremely high security, but while the redundant storage of the blockchain improves the security of the system, it also puts a lot of storage pressure on the nodes. The storage scalability problem of the blockchain has become a shortcoming restricting the development of blockchain technology. Sharded storage is a solution to the scalability of blockchain storage. While the existing sharded storage solution relieves the storage pressure of nodes, it also increases the computing and communication consumption of nodes, and reduces the efficient of blockchain systems. This article proposes a highly efficient fragmented storage model, which classifies blocks according to the frequency and size of the blocks being accessed, and uses different storage schemes for blocks of different classifications, which reduces the storage pressure of the node while controlling the computing and communication consumption of the node.
