How to Build & Deploy Smart Contracts on Solana?

What exactly is Solana?

Solana is an uncentralized blockchain system that is designed to alleviate the problems of congestion and scalability present in the current blockchains. Its primary goal of enhancing scalability, like a higher number of transactions per second (TPS) and faster confirmation times. It’s an open-source project that consists of the most innovative technologies of Intel, Netscape, Google, Qualcomm to support Solana in ensuring high-performance standards. For a thorough analysis of Solana take a look at our research completely dedicated to Solana.

What is the Architecture of Solana Smart Contract?

Solana’s smart-contract model is different from the traditional EVM-enabled blockchains. Traditional EVM-based contracts combine state and code in one contract that is implemented on the chain. However the smart contract that runs that runs on Solana is in read-only or stateless mode, and contains code only. When the smart contract is installed, it is accessible by other accounts and these accounts can interact with the software to store information related to program interactions.

This is how the separation of states (accounts) as well as contractual logic (programs) occurs this is a key distinction between traditional EVM-enabled as well as Solana smart contracts. Furthermore accounts on Solana as well as different Blockchains (like Ethereum) are also very different. Accounts on Solana holds information (like account information) unlike Ethereum accounts, which are merely the reference for users wallets.
