Universal Resolver Customization
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by expert Solidity engineers.
- Full-Stack Expertise:
Solidity/Vyperdevelopment forEVMchains (Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum) andSolana/Rust. - Security-First: Adherence to OpenZeppelin standards, comprehensive unit/integration testing, and formal verification.
- Production Focus: Gas optimization, upgradeability patterns (
Proxy), and front-end integration support.
We don't just write code; we deliver the secure, scalable infrastructure your token, DeFi protocol, or NFT project requires to launch with confidence.
Our Universal Resolver Driver Development Process
We deliver production-ready DID resolution drivers in weeks, not months, using a battle-tested process refined across 50+ implementations. Our focus is on security, interoperability, and seamless integration with your existing identity stack.
Requirement & Protocol Analysis
We conduct a deep-dive workshop to map your specific DID method requirements (e.g., did:ethr, did:key, did:web) against the W3C DID Core and DID Resolution specifications. This ensures architectural alignment from day one.
Secure Driver Architecture
We design the driver's core logic with security-first principles, implementing robust error handling, rate limiting, and caching strategies. Built using TypeScript/Go with OpenSSL for cryptographic operations.
Implementation & Unit Testing
Our engineers develop the driver against the official Universal Resolver interface, ensuring full compliance. Every function is covered by comprehensive unit and integration tests for reliability.
Security Audit & Hardening
Every driver undergoes an internal security review focusing on common DID resolution vulnerabilities. We provide a detailed audit report and implement all recommendations before deployment.
Containerization & Deployment
We package the driver as a Docker container with health checks and logging pre-configured. We provide Helm charts or Docker Compose files for seamless deployment to your Kubernetes cluster or cloud environment.
Integration & Support Handoff
We assist your team in integrating the driver with your Universal Resolver instance and provide documentation, runbooks, and 30 days of post-deployment support to ensure a smooth launch.
Business Outcomes of a Custom DID Resolver
A custom Universal Resolver integration delivers measurable advantages beyond basic identity functionality. We architect for performance, security, and seamless user experience.
Enhanced User Onboarding
Reduce user friction by 70% with a custom resolver that supports your specific DID methods (e.g., did:ethr, did:key) and integrates directly with your wallet or app. Eliminate third-party dependencies and latency.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Compliance
Deploy a resolver with built-in security controls, audit logging, and compliance hooks for KYC/AML. Our implementations follow OIDC best practices and are built on audited, open-source libraries.
Ownership & Data Sovereignty
Maintain full control over your identity infrastructure. Avoid vendor lock-in, manage your own SLAs, and ensure user data residency requirements are met with a privately hosted resolver.
Scalable Performance at Lower Cost
Optimize for high-throughput applications with a resolver tuned for your traffic patterns. Achieve sub-100ms resolution globally while reducing long-term operational costs versus managed services.
Future-Proof Protocol Support
Easily integrate emerging DID methods (did:ion, did:web) and Verifiable Credential formats without platform changes. Our modular architecture allows for rapid protocol upgrades.
Seamless Ecosystem Integration
Connect your resolver to existing enterprise systems (IAM, CRM) and blockchain networks. We provide SDKs and APIs for easy integration with wallets, dApps, and backend services.
Build vs. Buy: Custom Driver Development
A detailed comparison of the costs, risks, and time commitments between developing a custom Universal Resolver driver in-house versus partnering with Chainscore Labs.
| Factor | Build In-House | Buy with Chainscore |
|---|---|---|
Time to First Production Driver | 4-6 months | 4-8 weeks |
Initial Development Cost | $120K - $250K+ | $25K - $75K |
Security & Audit Overhead | High (unaudited, custom code) | Low (pre-audited patterns, formal verification) |
Ongoing Maintenance Burden | Full-time senior engineer | Optional SLA from $2K/month |
DID Method & Chain Expertise | Requires deep R&D | Included (ENS, Polygon ID, Veramo, etc.) |
Time to Add New DID Method | 1-2 months per method | 2-4 weeks per method |
Total Cost of Ownership (Year 1) | $300K - $600K+ | $75K - $175K |
Guaranteed Uptime SLA | Your responsibility | 99.9% Enterprise SLA available |
Response Time for Critical Issues | Internal team dependent | < 1 hour (Enterprise) |
Our Methodology for Driver Development
We deliver production-ready Universal Resolver drivers through a structured, security-first process designed for enterprise reliability and rapid deployment.
Architecture & Specification
We begin with a detailed analysis of your target DID method (e.g., did:ethr, did:key, did:web) and design a driver architecture that adheres to W3C standards while optimizing for your specific performance and integration requirements.
Secure Implementation
Our engineers write clean, auditable code in Go or Rust, implementing the core Resolve and Dereference functions. We integrate with your chosen blockchain (EVM, Solana, Cosmos) using battle-tested libraries and follow OpenZeppelin-level security patterns.
Comprehensive Testing
Every driver undergoes rigorous unit, integration, and conformance testing against the official Universal Resolver test suite. We simulate edge cases and high-load scenarios to ensure reliability before deployment.
Containerization & Deployment
We package the finalized driver as a Docker container with health checks, metrics (Prometheus), and structured logging. We provide deployment manifests (Kubernetes, Docker Compose) for seamless integration into your existing infrastructure.
Documentation & Integration Support
We deliver complete technical documentation, API references, and a integration guide. Our team provides direct support to ensure your resolver instance is correctly configured and operational within your ecosystem.
Maintenance & Updates
We offer ongoing maintenance packages to handle DID method specification updates, dependency upgrades, and security patches, ensuring your resolver remains compatible and secure over the long term.
Universal Resolver Customization FAQs
Answers to common questions from CTOs and engineering leads about customizing decentralized identity resolvers for your application.
A standard deployment for a custom Universal Resolver driver takes 2-4 weeks from kickoff to production. This includes design, development, testing, and deployment to your specified environment. Complex integrations with proprietary DID methods or multi-chain support can extend this to 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with milestones during the initial scoping call.
