Quorum
Quorum is an Ethereum-based distributed ledger protocol with transaction/contract privacy and a new consensus mechanism.
Key enhancements:
- QuorumChain - a new consensus model based on majority voting
- Constellation - a peer-to-peer encrypted message exchange
- Peer Security - node/peer permissioning using smart contracts
Architecture
The above diagram is a high-level overview of the privacy architecture used by Quorum. For more in-depth discussion of the components, refer to the wiki pages.
Quickstart
The quickest way to get started with Quorum is using VirtualBox and Vagrant:
git clone https://github.com/jpmorganchase/quorum-examples
cd quorum-examples
vagrant up
# (should take 5 or so minutes)
vagrant ssh
Now that you have a fully-functioning Quorum environment set up, let's run the 7-node cluster example. This will spin up several nodes with a mix of voters, block makers, and unprivileged nodes.
# (from within vagrant env, use `vagrant ssh` to enter)
ubuntu@ubuntu-xenial:~$ cd quorum-examples/7nodes
$ ./init.sh
# (output condensed for clarity)
[*] Cleaning up temporary data directories
[*] Configuring node 1
[*] Configuring node 2 as block maker and voter
[*] Configuring node 3
[*] Configuring node 4 as voter
[*] Configuring node 5 as voter
[*] Configuring node 6
[*] Configuring node 7
$ ./start.sh
[*] Starting Constellation nodes
[*] Starting bootnode... waiting... done
[*] Starting node 1
[*] Starting node 2
[*] Starting node 3
[*] Starting node 4
[*] Starting node 5
[*] Starting node 6
[*] Starting node 7
[*] Unlocking account and sending first transaction
Contract transaction send: TransactionHash: 0xbfb7bfb97ba9bacbf768e67ac8ef05e4ac6960fc1eeb6ab38247db91448b8ec6 waiting to be mined...
true
We now have a 7-node Quorum cluster with a private smart contract (SimpleStorage) sent from node 1
"for" node 7
(denoted by the public key passed via privateFor: ["ROAZBWtSacxXQrOe3FGAqJDyJjFePR5ce4TSIzmJ0Bc="]
in the sendTransaction
call).
Connect to any of the nodes and inspect them using the following commands:
$ geth attach ipc:qdata/dd1/geth.ipc
$ geth attach ipc:qdata/dd2/geth.ipc
...
$ geth attach ipc:qdata/dd7/geth.ipc
# e.g.
$ geth attach ipc:qdata/dd2/geth.ipc
Welcome to the Geth JavaScript console!
