Abstract
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, obtaining, from a user device, a master-slave agreement and a first network configuration for a federated blockchain network, transmitting to a cloud service provider (CSP) node the first network configuration, generating first credentials, and transmitting the first credentials to the CSP node. The CSP node configures a first group of blockchain nodes according to the first network configuration and the first credentials. Further embodiments include transmitting the first credentials to a public server that sends it to a public blockchain node and an indication to generate a portion of the federated blockchain network. The public blockchain node configures a second group of blockchain nodes according to a second network configuration based on a public blockchain smart contract. The federated blockchain network comprises the first group of blockchain nodes and the second group of blockchain nodes. Other embodiments are disclosed.
