 This is Part 2 of a two-part series. You can find Part 1 here. In our previous article, we introduced the Ethereum blockchain, itemized tools used for building, testing and deploying its networks, and shared some resources to help get a deeper understanding of the technology and its ecosystem. In this article we are going to delve deeper into a part of the Ethereum blockchain that allows you to make executable functions/methods from decentralized apps. Blockchain is an important technology for several reasons. It possesses several properties that are beneficial to business sectors that require trust, security and ease of sharing of data: Transparency: This blockchain property ensures that all connected parties have access to and can track all transactions and work done on the network. Security: This property ensures the protection of the transactions and work done in the network using cryptography algorithms and methods to encrypt and decrypt transactions. Immutability: This property safeguards the integrity of transactions and data by preventing the modification or alteration of previously stored data. Traceability: This property is observed in a blockchain when a completed transaction is linked to a previously completed transaction thus ensuring the verification of the history of all transactions
