Ion Hash Specification 1.0 Released
23 May 2019
This new specification defines a hash algorithm for Ion values, independent of whether a value is encoded in text or binary. It is useful when determining whether two Ion values represent the same value, or determining whether an Ion value has changed. For example, a storage system might use Ion hashes to assert the integrity of its data.
Additionally, a reference implementation of Ion Hash written in Java is available as open source software.
