In this section, we will discuss the common practices used by many to monitor transactions of applications in blockchains.
Explorers
Most of the decentralized solutions are deployed on a public blockchain network or digital ledger. In most of the public networks, blockchain explorers are available to look up information concerning a transaction or block. However, if the DIApp solution is implemented in a private or permissioned environment, these public blockchain explorers may not be able to provide information on transactions belonging to a private network or private ledgers. Hence, we must be able to deploy existing blockchain explorers and plug them into the endpoints of a private service. This is the only way to facilitate users' monitoring of their transactions in a private environment. Several open source implementations of blockchain explorers are available, which could be downloaded and connected to private services.
Some examples of public blockchain...
