    (SLIIT City UNI, 2025-07-08) Sukirthan, T; Arunpirakash, S; Karuneswaran, G; Tharmmendra, T; Vithiyasahar, V
    The emergence of blockchain technology has revolutionized decentralized data management by offering robust alternatives to traditional centralized database systems. This paper provides a systematic and comprehensive review of blockchain-based distributed databases, highlighting key architectural transformations, core enabling technologies such as Merkle Trees, PBFT, and Zero-Knowledge Proofs, and comparing them with conventional distributed databases. Real-world implementations including Hyperledger Fabric, BigchainDB, and OrbitDB are analyzed to assess their scalability, interoperability, and security capabilities. The paper also explores intrinsic security mechanisms, performance bottlenecks, and regulatory challenges that affect adoption. Finally, it identifies open research questions and future directions necessary for building scalable, privacy-aware, and interoperable decentralized database ecosystems suitable for enterprise and multi-stakeholder environments.
