Tendermint is software for securely and consistently replicating an application on many machines. Secure and consistent replication is a fundamental problem in distributed systems; it plays a critical role in the fault tolerance of a broad range of applications, from currencies, to elections, to infrastructure orchestration, and beyond.[1]
- Securely means that Tendermint works even if up to 1/3 of machines fail in arbitrary ways.
- Consistently means that every non-faulty machine sees the same transaction log and computes the same state.
