The core of the technology is to improve throughput
The application of blockchain in the financial industry has been discovered and realized by many institutions. However, no matter whether it is an application that has just started or a project that has been perfected day by day, it is facing the bottleneck of convergence in the development process, and these bottlenecks also hinder the depth and breadth of blockchain exploration at the level of financial applications.
according to
according toOneConnectAccording to the official website, OneChain has three major technologies. On the underlying framework of FiMAX, Sparrow privacy middleware provides guarantee for data privacy security, Core high-performance underlying layer improves throughput, and Concord one-click deployment and management platform optimizes user experience.

Learn from IBM Fabric
OneChain can be divided into two layers, the underlying architecture and API, and then upwards to undertake business scenarios.
According to the official website of Financial OneConnect, the blockchain team of Financial OneConnect is led by Lu Yifan, the co-founder of IBM HyperLedger Fabric. according toLei Feng NetAccording to reports, the underlying framework of One Account Chain was originally designed after being inspired by Fabric, and Lu Yifan is also acceptingLei Feng NetDuring the interview, he said that in the process of actual application, he found that Fabric was not suitable for application in the production environment, and his development philosophy with the community gradually diverged.
"The advantage of Fabric lies in the synchronous transmission of data. OneCloud also borrows this point, but it does not pay enough attention to privacy issues. Moreover, I think it is almost impossible to share data in practice, so the role of smart contracts is also very limited."
Therefore, on the basis of learning from Fabric, the financial OneConnect team transformed the underlying framework and named it FiMAX. "Core may still have some blood relationship with Fabric, but Sparrow and Concord are brand new." Lu Yifan told Leifeng.com.
FiMAX Sparrow privacy middleware has three main features: authorized encryption and decryption, zero-knowledge detection library, and anonymous query.
Node access and unified and centralized configuration management are the core of efficient cyberspace management. The two major problems of "difficult application deployment and difficult management" have also become the key points that hinder the development of blockchain.
