Title:

Scalable Confidential Computing Solution

Agreement Number:

943537

Agreement Value:

$150,000.00

Agreement Date:

Dec 2, 2019 - Jul 31, 2020

Description:

FHE is considered the holy grail of cryptography that allows for computing directly on encrypted data. The purpose of this project is to upgrade the architecture of our solution into microservices architecture to allow for a robust and scalable Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) platform that can scale to variable real-life traffic/transaction requirements. This includes database partitioning, workload splitting, load balancing, microservices, and others. It will also include researching ways to provide seamless continuous integration (CI) and continuous deployment (CD) to different parts of the overall solution in order to include any new improvements in the code base.
