Overview
Ardor is based on a unique parent/child chain architecture called Nxt technology. This architecture along with 250+ APIs, various lightweight smart contracts, asset and account controls as well as composite phased controls.It also enables businesses to launch customized block chains called child chains.
Child chains are capable of interfacing with the off-chain databases while it takes advantage of the Ardor Parent chain’s decentralized network of nodes. The use of these nodes allows Ardor to use energy efficient proof of stake security for its protocols.

Technology
Ardor’s unique parent/child architecture enables 3 fundamental advantages which are reduced blockchain bloat, Increased scalability and the ability to launch and host ready to use interconnected blockchains.
Ardor uses the proof of stake security consensus for its protocol and its programming language is Java.
The Permissionless ignis child chain was where all the advanced features and abilities of the Nxt technology were implemented. Business and developers are able to use the built in KYC/AML features to run a compliant security token offering.
The network of nodes on Ardor are called bundlers. Bundlers collect transaction fees in the child chain transactions for validation on the parent chain. Five customized bundler templates are built in to enable the Developers to sponsor the transaction fees for only their intended end users, this removes the need for direct interfacing by users with the blockchain
Use of Native tokens in the ecosystem: ARDR is the token of the Ardor blockchain network. ARDR is used to secure the network through a process called “forging”. ARDR’s supply has been distributed and will be limited to that only, therefore forging nodes are awarded rewards from the transaction fees in blockchain transactions.
