To help companies solve their issues efficiently, Hyperledger
combines cross-industry knowledge to allow organizations to build custom
blockchain apps that address specific business needs.
What is Hyperledger?
Hyperledger is an open-source project founded by the Linux
Foundation. It provides a diverse suite of projects and frameworks to
businesses and developers to build blockchain networks and applications.
Hyperledger Project aims to ease the collaboration between enterprises,
developers, and businesses in the field of DLT (Distributed Ledger Technology).
Hyperledger-based technology works using these layers:
- A consensus layer makes an agreement on order and confirms if the transactions in a block are correct.
- A smart contract layer, which processes and authorizes transaction requests
- A communication layer, which manages peer-to-peer (P2P) message transport.
- An API, which allows other applications to communicate with the blockchain.
- Identity management services, which validate the identities of users and systems.
Notable frameworks:
Hyperledger Fabric and Sawtooth
Two of the most notable Hyperledger frameworks include
Hyperledger Fabric and Sawtooth.
- Hyperledger Fabric:
It is a distributed ledger platform that delivers resiliency,
scalability, flexibility, and confidentiality. Explicitly designed to offer
pluggable implementation of various components, it can resolve complexities
that exist across the economic ecosystem.
- Hyperledger Sawtooth:
It is an enterprise blockchain platform used to build
distributed ledger networks and applications. It is designed in a way that it
keeps the ledgers distributed and ensures the safety of smart contracts.
The core Hyperledger goals include
- Provide business transaction support using enterprise-ready DLT solutions using frameworks
- Support technical communities
- Educate the public about blockchain technology and market opportunities
- Provide toolkit for promoting communities
- Community-driven and open infrastructure
