sounds like git :)
I think both blockchains and git are based on the concept of merkle trees, so that sounds about right.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkle_tree

immudb has a website where you can visualize the Merkle tree in real time as you insert data: https://play.codenotary.com/
Can Immudb work in a decentralized network while remaining secure from attacks in such networks or is Immudb meant for centralized systems if so I think you cannot compare it to Blockchains. Maybe a better comparison is Git.
immudb is not meant for public decentralized networks, although it might be possible to use embedded immudb to build a public blockchain... but that's a different story. immudb server is tailored to provide a database where any tampering will be subject to detection by any single client application consuming its data.
