Hyperledger Fabric – the journey of a sample transaction
Now, let's look at the journey of a sample transaction with Hyperledger Fabric. This section will help lay the foundation of Hyperledger Fabric concepts and components in order to facilitate a better understanding of the layers involved in transaction processing:
Hyperledger Fabric walkthrough
Fabric introduces a newly designed blockchain, preserving the transaction processing architecture and aiming at a secure, scalable, resilient, modular, and confidential design. Hyperledger Fabric (at the time of writing this book, the current version is 1.1) supports the execution of distributed applications supporting enterprise-friendly programming models. The components in Hyperledger Fabric provide a modular design, optimally suited for a business network made of various enterprises. Hyperledger Fabric introduces a model based on three steps, an endorse-order-validate architecture, designed for the distributed execution of untrusted code in...
