A Birds’ Eye View into the World of Distributed Computing and Blockchain Technology

Distributed computing is one of the fundamental computing principles that drive the Blockchain technology. In the simplest terms possible, Distributed Computing is merely a network where different computers come together to form one system. The systems can be physically connected to form a local network or they can be geographically dispersed and connected online. It is an old principle that has been fine-tuned over the years to suit the requirements.

Computers within distributed networks don’t need to be in any specific format or hardware configuration. This could be laptops or mainframes, PCs or Macs.

Blockchain was invented by a person (or group of people) using the name Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008 to serve as the public transaction books. It is a type of payment trail which is curated in digital blocks.

A Blockchain can be termed as a peer-to-peer network and there are no institutions or corporations that are in charge of these Blockchain. They are maintained by a group of highly skilled engineers who are known as the Miners. Blockchain technology has changed the concept of placing our trust from one centralized organization to a distributed trust as this ensures privacy, prevention from frauds and 100% secured transactions.
