Chromia

Why choose between a traditional database and a blockchain when you can have the best of both worlds? The Relational Blockchain is a new architecture that combines the power and flexibility of mature database systems with blockchain's disruptive potential. Chromia is a relational blockchain platform for decentralized applications (dapps).

Chromia is a blockchain platform that aims to solve the scalability problem for dapps. The platform consists of a network of relational blockchains. Dapps can be written in a way that is familiar to developers all over the world, whether they work on large enterprise applications, games, or smaller projects.

Our priorities are to:

* Allow dapps to scale to millions of users.

* Improve the user experience of dapps to achieve parity with centralized applications.

* Allow developers to build secure applications using familiar paradigms.

Most dapp blockchain platforms use virtual machines of various kinds, but a traditional virtual machine architecture doesn't work very well with the Chromia relational data model, as we need a way to encode queries as well as operations. To enable this, we created a new language called Rell (Relational language) for dapp programming.
