Abstract

A method for processing a query for data stored in a distributed database includes receiving, at an edge device, the query for data stored in the distributed database from a query device. The method includes causing, by the edge device, the query to be stored on a dynamic ledger maintained by the distributed database. The method includes detecting, by the edge device, that summary data has been stored on the dynamic ledger. The method includes generating, by the edge device, an approximate response to the query based on the summary data stored on the dynamic ledger. The method includes transmitting, to the query device, the approximate response.
