In this paper, we propose HyperShard, a novel hypergraph-based data sharding framework that aims to tackle the critical scalability issues of enterprise IT systems' storage layer in blockchains. Traditional sharding technologies such as hash-based sharding and graph-based sharding have the disadvantage that the related data will usually be distributed in different shards, which results in the communication among shards ineffective, as well as high latency. To model blockchain transaction and their multi-entity relationships that tend to be complex, HyperShard represents the blockchain as a hypergraph with hyperedges that natively model these higher order dependencies. Utilizing a multilevel partitioning algorithm, the framework intelligently maps data to the shards minimizing the cross-shard communication while maintaining the load balance. The results help show that HyperShard can be much more powerful than conventional techniques, considering its 40% more efficient throughput rate, 45% query latency reduction, as well as improvement in fault tolerance, thereby being a viable solution to deliver scalable and efficient blockchain deployments across enterprises.
