Hyperledger Fabric: What You Should Know and Why

Blockchain technology has rapidly gained popularity across various industries for its secure and transparent nature. Hyperledger Fabric, one of the most prominent blockchain frameworks, stands out for its robust features and flexibility. Designed for enterprise use, it is part of the Hyperledger project hosted by The Linux Foundation and is one of the most popular blockchain frameworks for developing business applications.

How does it work?

At its core, Hyperledger Fabric works by creating a network of unique organisations that interact with each other. Each organisation has its own Fabric certificate authority (CA) and one or more peer nodes. The Fabric CA issues certificates for users and manages permissions, while peer nodes endorse transactions, execute smart contracts (Chaincode), and store a local copy of the ledger.

Transactions in Hyperledger Fabric are initiated by clients and endorsed by endorsing peers. These endorsed transactions are then ordered into blocks by the ordering service, which is shared by all organisations in the network. The ordering service ensures that transactions are properly ordered and broadcasts new blocks to peer nodes. Peer nodes validate the transactions in the block and update their local copy of the ledger accordingly.

Hyperledger Fabric as a blockchain framework

Hyperledger Fabric is a blockchain framework designed for developing enterprise-grade applications. It provides a modular architecture that allows organisations to customise various components, such as consensus algorithms, membership services, and smart contract execution environments.
