This looks a lot like Datomic if you add hashing to the datomic transaction (this would have to be done as a datomic stored procedure). Given that this is hosted I am wondering whether his is using datomic underneath or if it is written from scratch? Two critiques: * Given that this is a hosted offering this seems like an odd definition of de-centralized, from my reading a more accurate description would be: allows cross-partition queries. Edit: response below indicates this aspect is missing from the linked whitepaper but available elsewhere. * The graph database section is hand-wavy. This seems like it could be similar to Datomic where with a small enough dataset you may have amazing performance, but at a large enough scale you will be lacking index-free adjacency.

If I understand properly, Fluree will partner with various "federated" enterprises to all run a Fluree ecosystem where everyone's data can be replicated, and queries can be served via multiple gateways ... in that sense Fluree will be decentralized. Note that I think I heard this in the Epicenter podcast (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdne9EvFNaw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdne9EvFNaw) featuring the Fluree founders. ... aahh, at this point in the podcast they talk about the federated/distributed Fluree: https://youtu.be/fdne9EvFNaw?t=3770 https://youtu.be/fdne9EvFNaw?t=3770 EDIT: pointer to "federated" / distributed database in podcast
