Tessera is a Go library designed for constructing tile-based transparency logs, compatible with both cloud (AWS, GCP) and non-cloud infrastructures (MySQL, POSIX, Vanilla S3+MySQL). Its engineering prioritizes secure log operation, incorporating insights gained from extensive experience managing production-grade transparency logs. This presentation will address the challenges and complexities inherent in operating such logs, and how Tessera and TesseraCT (Certificate Transparency log built on top of Tessera) provide concrete solutions for issues such as: How to protect one’s log against spam data? What information to hand over to clients, and when? And much more…
