Stage 21 — Cross-Site Synchronization [COMPLETED: 2026-01-29]
Enable blockchain nodes to synchronize across different sites via RPC.
Multi-Site Architecture
- Site A (localhost): 2 nodes (ports 8081, 8082)
- Site B (remote host): ns3 server (95.216.198.140)
- Site C (remote container): 1 node (port 8082)
- Network: Cross-site RPC synchronization enabled
Implementation
-
Synchronization Module ✅ COMPLETE
- Create
/src/aitbc_chain/cross_site.pymodule - Implement remote endpoint polling (10-second interval)
- Add transaction propagation between sites
- Detect height differences between nodes
- Integrate into node lifecycle (start/stop)
- Create
-
Configuration ✅ COMPLETE
- Add
cross_site_sync_enabledto ChainSettings - Add
cross_site_remote_endpointslist - Add
cross_site_poll_intervalsetting - Configure endpoints for all 3 nodes
- Add
-
Deployment ✅ COMPLETE
- Deploy to all 3 nodes
- Fix Python compatibility issues
- Fix RPC endpoint URL paths
- Verify network connectivity
Current Status
- All nodes running with cross-site sync enabled
- Transaction propagation working
- ✅ Block sync fully implemented with transaction support
- ✅ Transaction data properly saved during block import
- Nodes maintain independent chains (PoA design)
- Nginx routing fixed to port 8081 for blockchain-rpc-2
Future Enhancements
- ✅ Block import endpoint fully implemented with transactions
- Implement conflict resolution for divergent chains
- Add sync metrics and monitoring
- Add proposer signature validation for imported blocks
Stage 20 — Technical Debt Remediation [PLANNED]
Address known issues in existing components that are blocking production use.
Blockchain Node (apps/blockchain-node/)
Current Status: SQLModel schema fixed, relationships working, tests passing.

- Integration tests passing (2 passed, 1 skipped)
- Schema documentation (
docs/SCHEMA.md)
- Audit current SQLModel schema definitions in
