The document summarizes the architecture of Hyperledger Fabric, an implementation of a distributed ledger platform. Key points:
- Hyperledger Fabric uses a modular architecture and allows pluggable consensus protocols, currently implementing PBFT.
- It distinguishes between validating peers that run consensus and non-validating peers.
- Smart contracts called "chaincode" are run on peers and can read/write to the ledger state.
- Transactions are added to the ledger through consensus of validating peers executing the chaincode. Membership is currently static.

We develop an application prototype with Java and Hyperledger Fabric to facilitate people in the company to sell domestic goods to each other using marketplace application. Java and SmartGWT were used to develop UI, part of data were stored in the relational DBMS, while orders and balances were stored on the blockchain, specifically Hyperledger Fabric.
Introduction to Blockchain and the Hyperledger ProjectManuel Garcia
Does The Hyperledger Project have the potential to become the engine behind most successful decentralized applications and organizations created in the next 25-50 years? Absolutely!
A much better question is how, and in what new ways, can we:
a) Build decentralized applications, organizations and APIs at 10x the speed at 1/10 the cost.
b) Build situational awareness in the local community.
I believe that the convergence of decentralized applications, decentralized organizations, artificial intelligence and IoT brings upon us the Great Displacement of the 21st century, where the majority of workforce will be left without “conventional” jobs, forced to learn new skills and professions. Why?
Founders of this group believe that the Hyperledger Foundation will be the engine behind decentralization of the world, a massive economic change of the next 25-50 years.
So.... why don't we standardize and democratize the field with and around Hyperledger?
What?
We are a local micro community of those interested in advancing their knowledge of Hyperledger, its use cases and applications.

Blockchain Computing: Prospects and Challenges for Digital Transformation Pr...eraser Juan José Calderón
Blockchain Computing: Prospects and Challenges for Digital Transformation . Professor Syed Akhter Hossain.
Abstract:
A revolutionary trustable sharable computing outcome, the blockchain is essentially a distributed database of records or public ledger of all transactions originated from digital events and shared among participating parties within a computing framework. Each transaction of the chain in the public ledger is verified by consensus of a majority of the participants in the system and its constituents. Once recorded, information can never be erased and neither altered. The blockchain contains a certain and verifiable record of every single transaction ever made during the business operations. In general sense, the blockchain could be described simply as being a way of storing the information of a transaction, between multiple parties in a trustable way. Recording, sharing, storing and redistributing contents in a secure and decentralized way. Being owned, run and monitored by everybody and without anyone controlling it. Besides, avoiding any kind of modifications or abuses from a central authority. Blockchain technology is non-controversial and has worked flawlessly over the last few years and is being successfully applied to both financial and non-financial world applications and listed as as the most important invention since the Internet itself. Besides, digital transformation is taking off as rapid agent for change as part of the global business convergence. In this article, detail of blockchain technologies is presented from the pe
This tutorial will walk you through building a Hyperledger Composer blockchain solution from scratch.

This tutorial gives an overview of the techniques and resources available to apply to your own use case.
Note: This tutorial was written against the latest Hyperledger Composer build on Ubuntu Linux running with Hyperledger Fabric v1.0 where referenced below and also tested for a Mac environment.
Benchmark and comparison between hyperledger and MySQLTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
In this paper, we report the benchmarking results of Hyperledger, a Distributed Ledger, which is the derivation Blockchain Technology. Method to evaluate Hyperledger in a limited infrastructure is developed. Themeasured infrastructure consists of 8 nodes with a load of up to 20000 transactions/second. Hyperledger consistently runs all evaluation, namely, for 20,000 transactions, the run time 74.30s, latency 73.40ms latency, and 257 tps. The benchmarking of Hyperledger shows better than a database system in a high workload scenario. We found that the maximum size data volume in one transaction on the Hyperledger network is around ten (10) times of MySQL. Also, the time spent on processing a single transaction in the blockchain network is 80-200 times faster than MySQL. This initial analysis can provide an overview for practitioners in making decisions about the adoption of blockchain technology in their IT systems.

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.

1. Architecture of the Hyperledger Blockchain Fabric∗
Christian Cachin
IBM Research - Zurich
CH-8803 R¨uschlikon, Switzerland
cca@zurich.ibm.com
July 2016
Overview. A blockchain is best understood in the model of state-machine replication [8], where a
service maintains some state and clients invoke operations that transform the state and generate outputs.
A blockchain emulates a “trusted” computing service through a distributed protocol, run by nodes con-
nected over the Internet. The service represents or creates an asset, in which all nodes have some stake.
The nodes share the common goal of running the service but do not necessarily trust each other for
more. In a “permissionless” blockchain such as the one underlying the Bitcoin cryptocurrency, anyone
can operate a node and participate through spending CPU cycles and demonstrating a “proof-of-work.”
On the other hand, blockchains in the “permissioned” model control who participates in validation and
in the protocol; these nodes typically have established identities and form a consortium. A report of
Swanson compares the two models [9].
Hyperledger. The Hyperledger Project (www.hyperledger.org) is a collaborative effort to cre-
ate an enterprise-grade, open-source distributed ledger framework and code base. It aims to advance
blockchain technology by identifying and realizing a cross-industry open standard platform for dis-
tributed ledgers, which can transform the way business transactions are conducted globally. Established
as a project of the Linux Foundation in early 2016, the Hyperledger Project currently has more than 50
members.
Hyperledger Fabric. Hyperledger Fabric (github.com/hyperledger/fabric) is an imple-
mentation of a distributed ledger platform for running smart contracts, leveraging familiar and proven
technologies, with a modular architecture allowing pluggable implementations of various functions.
It is one of multiple projects currently in incubation under the Hyperledger Project. A developer-
preview of the Hyperledger Fabric (called “v0.5-developer-preview”) has been released in June 2016
(github.com/hyperledger/fabric/wiki/Fabric-Releases).
The distributed ledger protocol of the fabric is run by peers. The fabric distinguishes between
two kinds of peers: A validating peer is a node on the network responsible for running consensus,

2. validating transactions, and maintaining the ledger. On the other hand, a non-validating peer is a node
that functions as a proxy to connect clients (issuing transactions) to validating peers. A non-validating
peer does not execute transactions but it may verify them.
Some key features of the current fabric release are:
• A permissioned blockchain with immediate finality;
• Runs arbitrary smart contracts (called chaincode) implemented in Go (golang.org):
– User-defined chaincode is encapsulated in a Docker container;
– System chaincode runs in the same process as the peer;
• Consensus protocol is pluggable, currently an implementation of Byzantine fault-tolerant con-
sensus using the PBFT protocol [4] is supported, a prototype of SIEVE [3] to address non-
deterministic chaincode is available, and a protocol stub (named NOOPS) serves for development
on a single node;
• Security support through certificate authorities (CAs) for TLS certificates, enrollment certificates,
and transaction certificates;
• Persistent state using a key-value store interface, backed by RocksDB (rocksdb.org);
• An event framework that supports pre-defined and custom events;
• A client SDK (Node.js) to interface with the fabric;
• Support for basic REST APIs and CLIs.
Support for non-validating peers is minimal in the developer preview release.
Architecture. The validating peers run a BFT consensus protocol for executing a replicated state
machine that accepts three types of transactions as operations:
Deploy transaction: Takes a chaincode (representing a smart contract) written in Go as a parameter; the
chaincode is installed on the peers and ready to be invoked.
Invoke transaction: Invokes a transaction of a particular chaincode that has been installed earlier through
a deploy transaction; the arguments are specific to the type of transaction; the chaincode executes the
transaction, may read and write entries in its state accordingly, and indicates whether it succeeded or
failed.
Query transaction: Returns an entry of the state directly from reading the peer’s persistent state; this
may not ensure linearizability.
Each chaincode may define its own persistent entries in the state. The blockchain’s hash chain is
computed over the executed transactions and the resulting persistent state.
Validation of transactions occurs through the replicated execution of the chaincode and given the
fault assumption underlying BFT consensus, i.e., that among the n validating peers at most f < n/3
may “lie” and behave arbitrarily, but all others execute the chaincode correctly. When executed on top
of PBFT consensus, it is important that chaincode transactions are deterministic, otherwise the state
of the peers might diverge. A modular solution to filter out non-deterministic transactions that are
demonstrably diverging is available and has been implemented in the SIEVE protocol [3].
Membership among the validating nodes running BFT consensus is currently static and the setup
requires manual intervention. Support for dynamically changing the set of nodes running consensus is
planned for a future version.
As the fabric implements a permissioned ledger, it contains a security infrastructure for authen-
tication and authorization. It supports enrollment and transaction authorization through public-key
certificates, and confidentiality for chaincode realized through in-band encryption.
3. More precisely, for connecting to the network every peer needs to obtain an enrollment certificate
from an enrollment CA that is part of the membership services. It authorizes a peer to connect to the
network and to acquire transaction certificates, which are needed to submit transactions. Transaction
certificates are issued by a transaction CA and support pseudonymous authorization for the peers sub-
mitting transactions, in the sense that multiple transaction certificates issued to the same peer (that is, to
the same enrollment certificate) cannot be linked with each other.
Confidentiality for chaincodes and state is provided through symmetric-key encryption of transac-
tions and states with a blockchain-specific key that is available to all peers with an enrollment certificate
for the blockchain. Extending the encryption mechanisms towards more fine-grained confidentiality for
transactions and state entries is planned for a future version.
Discussion. Consensus protocols for blockchain are currently being debated very actively, in re-
search [6, 10] but also by fintech startup companies (e.g., tendermint.com, kadena.io). The
fabric’s design uses a modular notion of consensus, which is aligned with the well-established concept
of consensus in distributed computing. This ensures that the blockchain-related features of the fabric
can be developed independently of the specific consensus protocol. The PBFT protocol [4] has been
implemented as the first one in the fabric because of its prominence: it benefits from the experience
of almost 20 years of systems-level research on Byzantine consensus, is closely related to well-known
protocols like viewstamped replication and Paxos [7], has been analyzed in many environments [5, 1],
and is described in textbooks [2].
Conclusion. The Hyperledger Fabric is a permissioned blockchain platform aimed at business use. It
is open-source and based on standards, runs user-defined smart contracts, supports strong security and
identity features, and uses a modular architecture with pluggable consensus protocols.
The fabric is currently evolving and being actively developed under the governance of the Hyper-
ledger Project. More information about the fabric is available online at
