Digital identity management system with blockchain:An implementation with Ethereum and Ganache

Abstract

This paper presents the development of a distributed digital identity system utilizing modern technologies, including FastAPI, MongoDB, gRPC, Docker, and blockchain simulation with Ganache and Ethereum. The objective is to demonstrate the benefits of distributed systems and blockchain for the security, traceability, and decentralization of digital identities. The methodology included the development of a microservices architecture with JWT authentication, data persistence in MongoDB, simulation of blockchain operations using Ganache, and containerization with Docker. The results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach, with a functional web interface, complete audit logs, and blockchain simulation with Ethereum. The theoretical foundations, technical implementation, results obtained, and prospects for integration with real blockchain networks are discussed.
