Abstract
The technology disclosed herein enables network consensus management using trusted execution environments. An example method can include: determining, by a communication component of a first trusted execution environment (TEE) for a first node of a network in a distributed computing system, that the first node is a leader for a first set of networking transactions processed by the network in the distributed computing system; determining, by the communication component, that the first set of networking transactions satisfies a transaction threshold; selecting, by the communication component, a second node from one or more additional nodes of the network in the distributed computing system; determining, by the communication component, whether the second node comprises a second TEE that satisfies an authentication threshold; and responsive to determining that the second node comprises a second TEE that satisfies the authentication threshold, setting, by the communication component, the second node as the leader for a second set of networking transactions processed by the network in the distributed computing system.
