This book was created in the belief that, together, we will positively contribute to the evolution of blockchain technologies and continually inspire others to share their experiences and further influence others to do so. In this book, we will do the following:
- Explore distributed ledger technology; blockchain, its components, features, qualifiers, and architecture; and demystify the prominence of Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS)
- Engage in modeling a blockchain-based business network and gain exposure to developing business networks based on Hyperledger Fabric (HLF), and appraise blockchain and HLF use cases and their potential effects and integration
- Experiment with Oracle Blockchain Platform (OBP) to utilize the practicality of translating network topology to OBP
- Experience the ease and richness of assimilating smartness in a business network by learning the full life cycle of chaincode, from development to updates; from installing, initiating, and testing to versioning; and finally, from integration to insight
