Oak Chain Documentation

Distributed Content Repository - Ethereum meets Oak

What is Oak Chain?

Oak Chain bridges Ethereum's economic security with Apache Jackrabbit Oak's enterprise content model:

• Aeron Cluster for Raft consensus
• Ethereum payments for economic security
• Oak segments for content storage
• IPFS for binary storage

Why Teams Start Here

If you run Oak or AEM-backed content, the main risk is simple: writes can be hard to attribute and trust can be operator-dependent.

Oak Chain keeps your existing Oak mental model while adding signed, economically authorized, validator-replicated writes.

5-Minute Micro-Win

1. Open the docs home: https://somarc.github.io/oak-chain-docs
2. Jump to the Developer Guide
3. Run a local 3-validator cluster and verify leader/follower state
4. Submit one signed write and confirm replicated durability

Most teams miss this because they evaluate blockchain as a replacement stack. Oak Chain is designed as an extension path.
