immudb first immutable database that provides extension to the Ethereum Blockchain

HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–immudb, the only enterprise-scale immutable database with cryptographic verification, today announced an extension supporting the Ethereum Mainnet blockchain that provides high performance for ethereum-based applications, plus a new level of tamper-proof data security. Now immudb can be used as an Ethereum Layer-2 solution using Zero-Knowledge rollups (ZK rollups) to massively increase throughput by moving computation and state storage off-chain.

Until now, technical limitations and regulations for financial services and others have made it difficult or even impossible for businesses to store data in a blockchain. With this new immudb extension, the integrity and verifiability of data stored on-site is now also guaranteed by the public and distributed ethereum blockchain, without storing actual data outside of immudb. Users can store their data in immudb and be compliant with regulations and still enjoy the benefit of a no-tamper blockchain proof, beyond what immudb already offers.

“The combination of the tamper-proof immudb data store with ethereum provides an additional layer of security that no one else has, while delivering regulatory compliance and most importantly, maintaining the high performance of immudb which is millions of transactions per second,” said Dennis Zimmer, chief technology officer at Codenotary, the open source maintainer of immudb.

Unlike other databases, immudb is built on a zero-trust model: history is preserved and cannot be changed. Data in immudb comes with cryptographic verification at every transaction to ensure tampering is not possible. immudb can be deployed in cluster configurations for demanding applications that require high scalability, up to billions of transactions per day and high availability. Support for both key/value together with SQL makes it easy to use immudb in new and existing applications. Support for Amazon’s S3 storage cloud gives immudb virtually unlimited data storage capacity. With immudb’s time travel feature, organizations can travel back and forth in time and see the change history of their data.

immudb is capable of protecting sensitive data for workloads that require the utmost in security. Codenotary uses immudb to underpin its software supply chain security product. There have been more than 15 million downloads of immudb so far. The software can be downloaded here on GitHub. To learn more, go to
