How Aptos’ Quorum Store Unlocks True Scalability
Aptos has quickly made a name for itself with its impressive transaction throughput and sub-second finality. But how does it achieve such performance, especially when many blockchains struggle with scalability? One of the core innovations behind this is Quorum Store, a sophisticated mempool protocol that fundamentally transforms how transaction data is handled before it even…

Rust Implementation for High Concurrency Processing(4734)
GitHub Homepage During my junior year studies, high concurrency processing has always been one of the technical fields I’m most interested in. While traditional multi-threading models can handle concurrent requests, they often encounter performance bottlenecks when facing large numbers of connections. Recently, I deeply studied a Rust-based web framework whose high concurrency processing capabilities gave…
Bidirectional Communication Patterns in Modern Web Apps(6047)
GitHub Homepage: https://github.com/eastspire/hyperlane During my final year project on distributed systems, I encountered a fundamental challenge that shapes modern web development: how to enable efficient bidirectional communication between clients and servers. Traditional request-response patterns felt inadequate for the interactive applications we were building. My exploration of bidirectional communication led me to discover patterns that revolutionize…
