Abstract

An authenticated modular map library may support partial state for a key-value store. A key-value store may be created that is organized as a tree data structure that divides items into pages. Features to access the key-value store may also be specified when the key-value store is created. A portion of the key-value store may be sent to a participant of a blockchain network, which may attempt to access an item to be found in a page in the key-value store according to the specified features. If the page is not included in the portion, the page may be requested from another participant, received, and verified before being used to complete the attempted access of the item.
