Abstract

There are provided systems and methods for a database synchronization system in networked zones using blockchain. An electronic service provider may maintain data stores across different zones that may need to synchronize data across these zones. As such, the subject technology provides for data storage using interplanetary file system (IPFS) technology according to some embodiments with blockchain technology to create a secure and reliable data synchronization system. IPFS may be implemented as a data storage layer and blockchain as a transaction management system, where the IPFS address of data files and synchronization points are stored in a distributed ledger. Integration of the IPFS network with a fabric network can enhance IPFS with the fabric network to create a more secure file sharing platform to improve the transfer of data and database synchronization between different zones.
