Hyperledger Fabric is an open-source blockchain framework aimed at facilitating the development of blockchain-based solutions for enterprises. Developed under the governance of the Linux Foundation's Hyperledger project, Fabric is designed to be highly modular and configurable, thereby allowing it to be adapted for a multitude of industrial use-cases. Unlike public blockchain networks like Bitcoin or Ethereum, Hyperledger Fabric provides a permissioned architecture, meaning that participants in the network are known and vetted, enhancing both security and scalability. One of its distinct features is the use of "channels" for private communications between network participants, allowing for data to be shared privately. With its focus on enterprise-level needs such as governance, confidentiality, and scalability, Hyperledger Fabric is increasingly being used across various sectors including finance, healthcare, and supply chain management.
