An Integrated Hybrid Interoperability Architecture for Multi-Platform Blockchain Supply Chain Systems

Abstract

Blockchain-based supply chain systems have significantly improved transparency, traceability, and trust among distributed stakeholders. However, the cohabitation of diverse blockchain networks—public, private, and consortium platforms—introduces significant interoperability issues that impede smooth asset transfer, data sharing, and coordinated operations. In order to facilitate safe and effective communication between various blockchain-enabled supply chains platforms, this study suggests integrated hybrid interoperability architecture. To enable synchronized data sharing and dependable asset transfer, the suggested framework integrates relay-based communication, interoperability middleware, and atomic cross-chain transaction protocols. While maintaining data confidentiality and regulatory compliance, layered architectural architecture guarantees interoperability between public networks and permissioned enterprise blockchains. The concept uses standardized APIs and smart contract adapters to solve heterogeneity by standardizing data formats and operational logic across platforms. Additionally, to reduce risks like double-spending and unauthorized access, the framework incorporates cutting-edge security measures including cryptographic verification, decentralized identity management, and cross-chain validation protocols. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that the proposed architecture significantly improves transaction efficiency, reduces latency, and enhances system resilience compared to conventional single-chain approaches. The proposed hybrid model establishes a scalable and secure foundation for interoperable blockchain-based supply chain ecosystems, enabling transparent collaboration and supporting digital transformation in global logistics networks.
