Chief Executive from Solana reveals plan to improve network upgrades after 20 hours of failure

Solana zog heftige Gegenreaktionen aus der Community auf sich, nachdem es nach einem Netzwerk-Upgrade fast 20 Stunden lang ausgefallen war. Das Team hinter der Blockchain gab an, dass der Ausfall beim zweiten Versuch behoben wurde. Anatoly Yakovenko, der CEO von Solana Labs, erklärte jedoch, dass die Plattform eine Verbesserung der Netzwerk-Upgrades plant.

Chief Executive from Solana reveals plan to improve network upgrades after 20 hours of failure

Solana attracted violent counter-reactions from the community after it was for almost 20 hours after a network upgrade. The team behind the blockchain stated that the failure was remedied on the second attempt.

Anatoly Yakovenko, the CEO of Solana Labs, explained that the platform is planning to improve network upgrades.

Before the publication of 1.14, the core engineers focused on the remedial of live problems that affected the speed and user-friendliness of Solana. In addition to other technical problems, this included invalid gas meters, missing river control for transactions and missing fee markets. Therefore, the improvement of the user experience took a back seat.

In the latest blog post, Yakovenko said the goal of the Core engineers is now to work with validators in order to improve the process for software-redefine rollouts by consulting additional external developers and examiners to test and find exploits, and to continue to support external core engineers.

This also includes the Jump Crypto FireDancer team, which develops a second Validator client to "increase throughput, efficiency and reliability of the network".

An opposing team was also formed as part of the plan, which consists of almost a third of the Solana laboratories' core engineering team. This will double in the installation of additional hooks and instrumentation into the validation code in order to support the detection of exploits in the underlying protocols and provide hardware to perform medium to large clusters for the opposing simulation.

The improvement of the restart process is another area where the core engineering team will work. In this respect, the manager explained that

"While the full automation of the process is difficult, different types of errors can be remedied with simpler methods to improve the new start process. Nodes should automatically discover the last optimistic slot and share the ledger when missing."

In the meantime, Yakovenko said that Solana Labs worked with Core Engineering teams from third-party providers to focus on stability.

network activity

Since the failures were causing chaos, the NFT sales volume of Solana was recorded with 84.8 million, which corresponds to a decrease of 57 % in the last 30 days. Cryptoslam data showed that the transactions also decreased by almost 30 % in the same period, while buyers and sellers recorded an increase.

In addition, it was found that the total value (TVL) in Solana is just over $ 257 million compiled by Defillama. The network has lost over 97 % since it had reached a maximum in November 2021 during the bull run when it was $ 10.3 billion.
