Who this Book is For
This Book benefits Software Engineers who are ready to shift their focus to
distributed technologies and Blockchain. This book provides a
comprehensive view of Solution Architecture, so it will be easy for architects
to architect their solution. CTO’s around the world want to add hyperledger
fabric to their technology stack. Managers to cope up with the latest trend.
Faculty Professors in order to get industry insights. Even Engineering
Students who want to be ready with the latest technologies.
Book Description
Mastering Hyperledger Fabric is a craving topic for all Hyperledger Fabric
Developers around the world. Hyperledger Fabric is an open-source project
that helps organizations create and maintain permissioned distributed
Blockchain consortiums. This book is for readers who are looking for
Hyperledger offerings to build end-to-end projects with growing complexity
and functionalities. This book will be a one-stop solution for all developers
who want to build blockchain consortiums using Hyperledger Fabric. Topics
includes TLS, Unix sockets, caliper(Benchmark tool), raft consensus,
advanced chaincode development, key collision and MVCC, chaincode
access controls, chaincode encryption, node.js SDK, golang SDK, docker
daemon API, private data concepts, onboarding organizations using node.js
SDK, deploy hyperledger fabric using Kubernetes, deploy hyperledger fabric
using docker swarm, monitoring hyperledger fabric, monitoring Kubernetes,
monitoring docker swarm, logging hyperledger fabric. After reading this
book the reader will be able to set up Production grade hyperledger fabric
consortium using raft consensus mechanisms with monitoring using
Prometheus and grafana, even logging. This book explains so many key
concepts of hyperledger fabric including 2.0 and written with three years of
hyperledger fabric production experience.
Preface
The Main goal of this book is to provide a one stop solution for all
implementations related to Hyperledger fabric projects. This book covered a
variety of technologies such as docker, docker swarm, kubernetes, elk stack,
prometheus, grafana, TLS, sockets, Raft, NodeJS, etc and a variety of
implementations such as caliper, logging, monitoring, and three diverse use
cases. The content in this book helps developers to complete their solutions
around Hyperledger Fabric. After reading this book readers will be able to
develop production grade projects around Hyperledger fabric with different
container orchestrator tools.
It is recommended that readers have a basic understanding of programming
experience, docker, Node.js and introduction to Hyperledger fabric,
kubernetes in order to benefit fully from this book.
