Solana is a high-performance blockchain that implements a proof-of-history architecture, allowing for low-cost and high-speed transactions.
Consensus Mechanism
Tower Byzantine Fault Tolerant (tBFT) Proof of Stake (POS)
Programming Language
Solana was built using the Rust programming language. Rust is an interpreted language, that utilizes high speed and optimal memory efficiency allowing for parallel processing.
Network Features
Proof of History (POH)
Solana is a proof of stake (POS) blockchain with a proof of history (POH) implementation. Solana's Proof of History (PoH) is an architecture for securing the network and streamlining transactions. This results in the ability to process transactions as they occur, rather than waiting for global consensus —without raising security concerns. Overall, POH allows for higher scalability, reduced transaction fees, and a more stable platform for dApps.

Security
Solana can handle large volumes of transactions per second, reducing the need for increased fees to compensate for processing times. By organizing transactions as they occur, rather than waiting for blocks to append to the chain, Solana can provide a lower-cost solution for users compared to other blockchains.
