Deep dives
The Data Model and Scalability of SWE
SUI, the L1 blockchain, is designed around low latency and horizontal scalability. It employs a data model based on objects rather than accounts, allowing for efficient parallel execution of transactions. SWE uses a consensus fast path that skips full consensus for certain transactions, resulting in significantly reduced latency. The platform achieves throughput by enabling parallel execution of transactions and incentivizing developers to create parallelizable workloads. Storage scalability is addressed by leveraging conventional databases and adding more machines or disks as needed.
