EOS EOSIO DApp 개발 – '에브리피디아 백서 읽기' 시리즈 12.Blockchain Agnosticism

Blockchain Agnosticism

This whitepaper discusses the implementation of the Everipedia Network using EOS.IO software. It is entirely possible for the three modules discussed above to be built and implemented using different distributed ledger technology while preserving the fundamental substance and utility proposed. Additionally, it is entirely possible to build the three modules using different distributed ledger technology which interact through cross-blockchain transfers of value and data. One example of such an implementation would be building an entire blockchain in a proof of stake system using the Ethereum Plasma Framework. IQ would act as the staking token for production and proposition of blocks. Another example of cross-chain implementation could be building the governance module using the upcoming Tezos network since Tezos software is bundled with sophisticated self-governance features to be used for its own network rule-making. Additionally, the storage of article blobs through IPFS nodes can be incentivized using different implementations, such as Filecoin, in addition to EOS.IO Storage (like discussed above).

백서에서는 EOS.IO에서의 에브리피디아 네트워크 구현을 다루고 있지만, 다른 블록체인 기술을 사용해서 구현할 수도 있어.
EOS.IO에서의 구현만 논하기도 벅찬데, 왜 벌써부터 이런 대안들을 논하고 있는거지? 그 이유는 아래에.

Wikipedia started with 1990s server hardware and architecture but upgraded to caching infrastructure and state of the art data centers. The Everipedia Network is a long term self-sustainable project that has the goal of creating the first global decentralized knowledge base. Given that goal, the network should specifically use technology that has long term potential and developers should keep open minds towards future scaling solutions. This allows network developers and maintainers to make bets on what will be valuable blockchain technology today and in the foreseeable future, but allows building an expandable and platform agnostic network which can use multiple breakthrough technologies to function efficiently.

위키피디아는 1990년대의 서버 하드웨어와 아키텍처로 시작했지만 캐싱 인프라와 최첨단 데이터 센터로 업그레이드 되었지.
에브리피디아도 위키피디아 못지 않게 장기간 지속 가능한 프로젝트가 되어야 겠지. 그렇게 하려면 여러 획기적인 기술을 효율적으로 사용할 수 있는 확장 가능하고 플랫폼 독립적인 네트워크를 구축해야겠지.
