aelf is a blockchain network that offers a comprehensive business solution as an open-source platform. It utilizes a “one main-chain + multiple side-chains” structure, which allows developers to deploy or run DApps independently on individual side-chains for resource isolation. The technology employed by aelf includes Parallel Processing & AEDPoS Consensus Mechanism and cross-chain technology for secure communication between the main-chain and all side-chains, thus enabling direct interoperability between them.
To cater to the governance needs of different applications, aelf offers various models such as Parliament Governance, Association Governance, and Referendum Governance. The incentive model provides the network with a self-sustainable system and facilitates practical self-development. Additionally, developers can debug, develop, and deploy applications using the mature IDE provided by aelf.
Moreover, aelf has launched aelf Enterprise, an enterprise-level integrated blockchain solution that caters to different business scenarios. The modularized blockchain solution provided by aelf Enterprise is flexible yet practical, which meets the requirements of several industries such as supply chain management, credit establishment, user incentives, and property protection. The integration of Blockchain and other core economies through aelf Enterprise promotes their hand-in-hand development.
