Abstract
A messaging balancing and control (B&C) system is disclosed. The system configured to handle message transfers having different message exchange patterns, including: in-only exchange patterns, out-only exchange patterns, in-optional-out exchange patterns, out-optional-in exchange patterns, robust in-only exchange patterns, and robust out-only exchange patterns. The system may write a message transfer confirmation in response to a message transfer between a consumer system and a provider system, with the confirmation including at least a first hash of the message. The system may also write a message acknowledgement to the blockchain with the acknowledgement including at least a second hash of the message. The blockchain may execute a smart contract to compare the first hash of the message to the second hash of the message to identify an out-of-balance message transfer event. A monitoring device of the system may read the out-of-balance message transfer event from the blockchain.
