System for managing a virtual private ledger and distributing workflow of authenticated transactions within a blockchain distributed network

Abstract:

Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for expediting validation and authorization of transactions between end points. Embodiments of the invention utilize a private blockchain to control transaction workflow amongst compute nodes, provide automatic authorization of transactions in the workflow, and provide efficient record-keeping functions within the virtual ledgers in an upstream and a downstream application. By using a private distributed ledger in this manner, the system addresses the computer networking-centric challenge of processing transactions in a secure and efficient manner; avoiding desynchronization of data as well as preventing the need for authorization and confirmation requests amongst the nodes greatly reduces the amount of computing resources required to process transactions, including, but not limited to, processing power, memory space, storage space, cache space, electric power, networking bandwidth, and I/O calls.
