Electorate-Vanadium-Ledger

Electorate is the ElectOS (https://electos.org) subsystem for voter records management. Electorate Vanadium is the data warehouse for voter records data and related data on a distributed digital ledger. Electorate Vanadium Core presents a Web services API for clients to access the data warehouse. Electorate Vanadium Ledger is the underlying data storage for the warehouse, implementing the actual distributed digital ledger.

The Vanadium Ledger’s implementation is centered on the use of Amazon Managed Blockchain. As a result, much of the software in this repository is deployment automation for setting up a ledger. The application-specific software is limited to lambda-function software that works with an API Gateway to implement a serverless entry point to the underlying ledger. This software, the Vanadium Agent, wraps the ledger as a single point of access control decisions about which software has the privilege to access the ledger. Curently, the design supports the Electorate Vanadium Core as the sole component with that access.
