Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Centralized database systems face issues such as single points of failure, dependency on network connectivity, bottlenecks during high traffic, and limited data access, which hinder efficient data management and security.
Innovation Solution
A blockchain-based identity ecosystem that enables decentralized data management by using a processor to connect to a blockchain network, generate universal unique identifiers, execute query requests, derive disclosure levels, and negotiate transactions for data access and monetization.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a centralized database is used to store and manage data, then data management is easy to control and security is simplified, but the system has a single point of failure and limited data access
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the centralized database into multiple distributed nodes across a blockchain network. Each node maintains a copy of the data, eliminating the single point of failure while preserving management control through consensus mechanisms and smart contracts that enforce data access policies across the distributed system.
2Quantity of substance
If a centralized database is used, then data redundancy is minimized, but data access speed and availability are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses blockchain technology to create identical copies of data across multiple distributed nodes. Each node stores a complete or partial copy of the database, enabling parallel data access from multiple locations simultaneously, thereby increasing data access speed and availability while maintaining data consistency through cryptographic verification.
3Device complexity
If a centralized database is used, then network connectivity dependency is high, but decentralized alternatives increase system complexity
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces smart contracts as intermediary automated protocols that mediate data access and transactions between distributed nodes. These self-executing contracts encode business logic and access rules, reducing the need for complex centralized coordination while maintaining reliable data access independent of specific network connectivity conditions through the decentralized peer-to-peer architecture.

AI summary
An example operation may include one or more of connect to a blockchain network of an ecosystem comprised of a plurality of consumer nodes, generate a universal unique identifier (UUID) associated with a user data attribute, execute a query request for the user data attribute associated with the UUID, derive a disclosure level from the query request, execute a smart contract to commit to a blockchain ledger, a monetary value associated with the user data attribute, negotiate a transaction with the consumer node to access the user data attribute and record an agreement result onto the a blockchain ledger.
