High level overview of how we're planning on integrating native EVM communication with Corda 5.

Still to come:

  • An overview of Corda 5 and Ethereum networks working together (with a picture)

Thanks for submitting this Ryan. Just some very basic questions from me. I assume one of the team who is closer to it will do a thorough technical review. But I'm super happy to see it.


Before we continue it's worth revisiting the architecture of Corda 5. Corda 5 operates as a cluster or [workers](https://docs.r3.com/en/platform/corda/5.0/key-concepts/cluster-admin/workers.html), each of which may contain one or more `processors`.

The workers are the runtime applications, while the processors are what do the work. It is possible, and even likely, that we will have multiple workers running at a time, allowing for some parallelism of the processors, giving us the ability to execute multiple instructions (in our case, EVM commands) at the same time.

is there a danger that 'application' is ambiguous here? (ie these are not the 'applications' that a customer writes, right? although they may execute some customer code). Perhaps we call them the 'runtime services' or 'runtime components' of Corda?

I'll use services. Thanks
