Overview of this book

Hyperledger is an open-source project and creates private blockchain applications for a range of domains. This book will be your desk reference as you explore common and not-so-common challenges faced while building blockchain networks using Hyperledger services. We'll work through all Hyperledger platform modules to understand their services and features and build end-to-end blockchain applications using various frameworks and tools supported by Hyperledger. This book's independent, recipe-based approach (packed with real-world examples) will familiarize you with the blockchain development cycle. From modeling a business network to integrating with various tools, you will cover it all. We'll cover common and not-so-common challenges faced in the blockchain life cycle. Later, we'll delve into how we can interact with the Hyperledger Fabric blockchain, covering all the principles you need to master, such as chaincode, smart contracts, and much more. We'll also address the scalability and security issues currently faced in blockchain development. By the end of this book, you will be able to implement each recipe to plan, design, and create a full-fledged, private, decentralized application to meet organizational needs.

Introduction

Ethereum is one of the most important public blockchain networks in terms of its impact and market cap. It is sometimes known as a world computer, as it is used to run decentralized applications (DApps) for everyone and has an open software platform powered by the global infrastructure. It allows different organizations and individuals to build and deploy DApps to execute smart contracts. Ethereum is the next generation of blockchain. It introduced the possibility for blockchain technology to develop from cryptocurrency cash systems to an open, flexible, and distributed global computing platform for a wide variety of applications.

The smart contract running on Ethereum is the application, which can be written in different programming languages to perform all sorts of business logic or fulfill predefined contracts when they are triggered. The EVM is the runtime environment...
