Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include computer-implemented processes that, using a distributed notarized ledger, constrain an ability of multiple parties to simultaneously, or near simultaneously, update or modify elements of reference data maintained within a centralized data store. For example, an apparatus may receive, from a first computing system, a request to modify reference data maintained at a second computing system. The apparatus may approve the first requested modification to the reference data based on a notarization criterion maintained within an element of a notarized distributed ledger, and perform operations that record notarization data characterizing the approved modification within an additional element of the notarized distributed ledger. The apparatus may also transmit the notarization data to the first computing system, and the notarization data causing an application program executed by the first computing system to modify local reference data in accordance with the notarization data.
