This paper introduces a tool called Containerchain to simplify the deployment of large Blockchain systems for researchers. With Containerchain, users can control the number of nodes in the system, the consensus mechanism used, and observe and analyze network traffic within the Blockchain. The goal of the tool is to allow researchers to focus more on their actual research rather than network setup.
Blockchain is a popular topic of research in recent years. For worthwhile research into the use Blockchains, they often must be deployed into environments that are as close to real-world scenarios as possible. Real-world networks are large and complex and therefore the Blockchains used to research them should be large and complex. Creating large Blockchains like this may seem out-of-reach for the humble researcher. The tool introduced in this paper - Containerchain - seeks to make it much easier to spin up a large Blockchain system with littleor-no setup. The ultimate goal being to allow researchers to spend more time on actual research, rather than on setting up the network Containerchain allows the user to deploy a real Blockchain system (not simulated) with several configurable parameters at their disposal. The user can control the number of nodes in the system, the consensus mechanism used and can observe and analyze the network traffic in the Blockchain - which is recorded out-of-the-box.
