In this paper, an architecture for fusing cloud-edge collaboration and blockchain is studied from theory, key technologies and specific architecture design. Particularly, it includes overall integration application research and design, cloudedge collaboration and blockchain interactive application design, blockchain management function design based on cloud-edge collaboration, smart contract management design based on cloud-edge collaboration, and blockchain data management design. Through feasibility study and by means of advantages of cloud-edge collaboration and blockchain integration, a general architecture that fuses the two is proposed, which can be applied to applications such as smart electricity consumption, smart connected vehicles, smart pipe networks, and industrial IoT Scenes.
