SBFT
SBFT stands for Scalable Byzantine Fault Tolerance. It is a consensus protocol designed for permissioned distributed systems and blockchain-like applications where some nodes may act maliciously. The protocol aims to deliver safety (agreement on the same sequence of operations) and liveness (progress despite faults) in networks that can be partially synchronous and contain Byzantine faults.
Key features of SBFT include the use of threshold cryptography to reduce the size of inter-node communications,
In terms of operation, SBFT coordinates a group of nodes to agree on a sequence of requests.
SBFT is commonly used in permissioned blockchain environments and enterprise-grade distributed ledgers that require strong resilience
