Blockchain-Enabled Secure Data Management in CloudBased High-Performance Computing Systems

In the evolving landscape of cloud-based high-performance computing (HPC) systems, the integration of blockchain technology presents a transformative approach to secure data management. This paper explores how blockchain's decentralized and immutable characteristics can enhance the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of data in HPC environments. By establishing a tamper-proof ledger for data transactions, blockchain ensures that all entries are verifiable and resistant to unauthorized alterations. This is particularly crucial in sectors such as healthcare and finance, where data integrity is paramount. Furthermore, the implementation of smart contracts within blockchain frameworks automates data governance and compliance, streamlining operations while enhancing security measures. The proposed framework addresses significant challenges associated with traditional centralized data management systems, including vulnerabilities to data breaches and inefficiencies due to lack of transparency. By fostering interoperability among diverse data management systems, blockchain facilitates seamless data exchange and collaboration across various stakeholders. This research highlights the potential for blockchain-enabled solutions to not only safeguard sensitive information but also improve operational efficiency in cloud-based HPC systems
