What is Solana?

The idea and initial work on the Solana project began in 2017 but it was officially launched in March 2020 by the Solana Foundation with headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. Solana’s team comprises professionals hailing from world-renowned organisations such as Microsoft, Dropbox, and Google.

How Does The Solana Network Work?

The Solana network is a high performance blockchain that operates on a Proof-of-History consensus algorithm combined with an underlying proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus. It is designed mainly to facilitate decentralized app (DApp) creation.

Thanks to its innovative hybrid consensus model, Solana is intended to serve not only small-time traders but also institutional enterprise traders.

Solana is known for its blazing processing speed and low fees compared to many other established blockchains.

In terms of today’s transaction speeds, Solana processes 65,000 transactions per second (TPS) which is around 10,000 times faster than Bitcoin, 4,000 times faster than Ethereum, and 35 times faster than Ripple — and even around 2.5 times faster than Visa.

Solana Network achieved this with its own prized and exclusive 8 core innovations:

Proof of History (POH) – The PoH system embeds historical records of blockchain transactions in order to ensure that transactions happened before they are included in the distributed ledger.
Tower Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT) – Tower BFT leverages the PoH as a clock before consensus, to reduce communication overhead and latency. It prefers liveness over consistency.
Turbine – Turbine is optimized for streaming, and transmits data using UDP only, and implements a random path per packet through the network as leaders (block producers) stream their data.
Gulf Stream – Gulf Stream functions by pushing transaction caching and forwarding to the edge of the network allowing validators to execute transactions ahead of time and reduce confirmation times.
Sealevel – Sealevel is used to find all the non-overlapping transactions that occur within a block and run them parallel.
Pipelining – Solana assigns a stream of input data onto different hardwares so that the transaction information is quickly validated and replicated across all nodes in the network efficiently, while keeping the sequence in check.
Cloudbreak – Cloudbreak establishes a data structure where transactions are processed in a software that utilizes every hardware responsible for indexing data.
Archivers – Solana’s network allows every node to replicate information from the blockchain according to the space available on their hardware. Archivers download their respective data from validators, and this data is accessible to the network.
