AERGO is all set to resolve the issues of integration, software development, privacy, scalability, and interoperability that exists in today’s blockchains. Thank you for taking the time to read my article about . In the current ICO “ ” market, I have seen very fewer projects that can push for mass adaptation. One of the projects that caught my eye is Aergo. I feel I should review as I believe it holds a lot of Promise. One of the reason is that it is targeting Enterprise Sector, Second is that It is backed by Blocko which has developed , a private blockchain solution which is deployed to 25 million users around the world. Aergo bear Aergo Coinstack Let's have a look at Aergo on a more detailed note. First up, give it all 50 claps, then dive in and enjoy! The Problem(s). 1. Current BlockChain is Broken. Sound like a bold statement. But If you are a follower of the blockchain space, you will be aware of three core issues current blockchain are facing. (Majority of existing blockchain performance depends upon a single node) Scalability ( The entire system gets clogged if any contract takes too many resources in the main chain) Resource Segregation ( Remember the clash of BTC and BCH fanboys) Adaptable Governance Model Coming to Blockchain development for , A new host of challenges has come up for Enterprise mass adaptation and development. Enterprise level businesses scene These include, Hard for developers and IT contractors to write applications for blockchain Too many conflicting implementation models to choose from Lacks the performance needed or data controls typical of businesses Difficult to integrate a new blockchain project into existing IT systems Integration of Public and Private Blockchains 2. Current BlockChain is not Enterprise Friendly. The underlying concept of blockchain is to create a truly decentralized world. There lies the major problem as well. Blockchain, as in the original design, are made to be publicly visible whereas most of the institutions/Enterprise do not want their sensitive data( e.g pricing, Strategies etc)to be accessed by anyone around. Some of the concerns will be its security as well as leakage of sensitive data to unintended parties. This would mean that the organization must create its own mini-network of blockchains (Public and Private) as per the requirements. These systems will have to be synced to each other in regular intervals so that all the data will be up-to-date. This is where the real challenge is and this is where comes into play. Aergo The Aergo Solution Aergo project is backed by , one of Korea’s largest blockchain infrastructure provider with operations in the UK, South Korea and Hong Kong. Blocko has already deployed blockchain products for Top rated companies like LG, IBM, Hyundai, Samsung, Gyeonggi-do provincial government etc. Blocko.Inc (“Blocko​”) ( A 3rd generation blockchain platform which includes developer tools, blockchain operating system, integration APIs etc) which is developed by Blocko will act as the core backbone of AERGO, fueling its ecosystem. COINSTACK Now let’s take a look on Aergo and its Ecosystem. As per the Whitepaper, the Aergo project is defined as AERGO aims to become the de facto enterprise blockchain. One that bridges the gap between both public and private networks. A platform that uses core blockchain technology and deployment blueprints that have already been proven in real-life in-production systems across the world by Blocko . In simple terms, AERGO will create a Blockchain Eco-System which will enable both the enterprises and developers to design, build and deploy their own blockchain applications within the cloud. The Ecosystem will offer the opportunity for developers to personalize their blockchain and dApps on both public and private chains. Developers can choose to deploy public and private chains alone or a mix of both. Apart from that, AERGO will also feature a feature-rich middleware layer which will act as a bridge with various legacy enterprise software. The core three elements of AERGO Ecosystem are as follows: : 1.AERGO CHAIN As per the Whitepaper AERGO Chain is a proposed blockchain designed to mitigate issues currently experienced with public blockchains. It aims to include an SQL based smart contract platform as well as advanced features, such a distributed version and concurrency control. AERGO Chain is a proposed new protocol consisting of a global public decentralized network of enterprise blockchains run by node providers. Aergo Chain will feature a SQL-based smart contracts platform(AERGOSQL), which will help users to easily create and execute advanced smart contracts to enable innovative business products and services. To achieve interoperability Aergo will be supporting the Ethereum Virtual Machine. This hybrid approach provides useful interoperability between different types of smart contract operations. One of the major issues blockchain is facing is the scalability issue. Aergo plans to implement sidechains which will help the performance to Enterprise scale, potentially exceeding 1 million TPS. Aergo has opted for process to reach consensus. is in a way similar to PoS, but is different and more “ ” features that Aergo feels it makes more efficient and fair. Delegated Proof-of-Stake DPoS democratic 2.AERGO HUB: AERGO Hub is designed as a blockchain hosting service that will act as the public interface for designing, testing, deploying and managing independent private and public or a mix of both blockchains based on AERGO Chain. AERGO Hub will be acting as the interface which will connect and work with various dApps hosted in the AERGO Chain. All the dApps will be stored in either of the two repositories described below. AERGO Public Repository, a shared, open and decentralized underlying infrastructure for dApps AERGO Private Repository, a private, controlled, and secure infrastructure for dApps AERGO Hub designed to act like a public cloud web service (Similar to Amazon AWS). It will have functions like Serverless Database Support for all the software microservices CDN Interfaces for smart oracles Gateway to intelligently route data traffic into the blockchain We can summarise Aergo Hub as the proposed public interface into AERGO Chain 3. AERGO MARKETPLACE True to its name, Aergo Marketplace will be a “Supermarket” for all the software applications, computing resources and other services which are designed to run or work on AERGO Chain. Apart from that, it will also act as the Hub where all the third party Service providers/ vendors can make their products and services available for AERGO users. In summary, AERGO Marketplace can only be accessed through AERGO Hub’s public interface, is designed to be a vibrant, open and sustainable ecosystem full of new technologies and innovations. Product Roadmap and Progress Source: ( ) https://github.com/aergoio/aergo/blob/master/README.md The project is in its early stages. Reviewing Aergo Github, It’s good to see that the team is keeping up with Roadmap. At the time of writing, they have around 458 commits in and is highly active, which is a positive sign. For the Project, September and December are crucial as and is planned. GitHub Arego Alpha Aergo Testnet AERGO Token. The tokens are termed as . Total supply of Tokens is capped at 500,000,000 (500 Million). The token will be used as a medium of exchange within the AERGO ecosystem, majorly for Aergo Marketplace which includes payment of various products and services. Aergo Token Team One Striking feature of Aergo team is most of them are fetched from the parent company Blocko. All of the team members have rich experience in Blockchain development and design. You can read more . here My Take Aergo is designed keeping the complex requirements of Enterprise Business in mind. There are already Projects working on the similar concept like EOS, ONT, Aelf etc. Some of them have already on a more advanced stage of Roadmap like launching the mainnet (EOS, ONT) and Test Net(Aelf), whereas Aergo has arrived the scene late. But there is one strong point Aergo holds, It’s the parent company “ Blocko”. Presence of brings in two advantage. Blocko — “ ” on which Aergo is going to be built, Blocko has successfully deployed it to various Top notch Industrial houses. Since the product will be developed based on an existing and proven infrastructure, Aergo will definitely enjoy the advantage in terms of Tech. Technical know-how COINSTACK — Blocko already has a rich set of clients which includes big names like etc. Leveraging the support from Blocko, It will be easy for Aergo to introduce the project to these existing clients and push for adaptation. Existing Elite Clientele LG, IBM, Hyundai, Samsung One disadvantage I would say will be the long roadmap. The roadmap is spread for almost 2 years (4Q, 2019) with final product only to be launched by the end of 2019. It can be a deterrent to investors looking for ROI in short term but will benefit investors with the long-term investment timeframe. One more factor Aergo will have to take care will be to spread its wings outside the South Korean Market. Since Blocko clients are majority based in South Korea, It will really take more efforts from the Aergo team to start building its client base beyond its traditional Korean market. Apart from these concerns, Aergo looks good in view of the future Product planned, Team mix as well with good industry backing.
