Hyperledger Fabric 2.x Network Design & Setup

Deep Dive into the Design, Management & Operation of Hyperledger Fabric Blockchain Networks

What you'll learn:

• Design the Hyperledger Fabric Networks
• Use of various Fabric tools (cryptogen, configtxgen, orderer, peer, fabric-ca-server, fabric-ca-client ...)
• Configure and setup the Hyperledger Fabric (Native, Docker, Docker-Compose, Minikube, Kubernetes, AWS, GCP)
• How the De-centralized consortium works in the context of Fabric networks
• Recipes for management & operation of Fabric networks e.g., how to add a new Org in a live network
• Configuration of Fabric Network by way of the YAML configuration files
• Setup Fabric locally & on the cloud

Updated to Fabric Version 2.x in July 2020

Setting up Hyperledger Fabric Infrastructure is a complex task that requires the users to understand the concepts and the tools. This course is for technologists who are looking to architect & design solutions on Hyperledger Fabric based Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT).

This course has already helped 1000s of students gain expertise on Fabric Network design &setup.

At the end of this course students will:

1. Have hands on knowledge of Hyperledger Fabric Components &Practices

2. Understand how to design the Hyperledger Fabric Infrastructure as per the requirements

3. Setup Fabric Certification Authorities & Manage identities

4. Be able to setup the test & production grade Fabric network infrastructure

5. Design Consortium setups & policies

6. Configure the YAML files for Fabric network initialization

7. Carry out Fabric network configuration updates

8. Be able to setup Fabric Network on

   1. Native in a Virtual Machine (Locally)

   2. Cloud (AWS)

   3. Docker &Docker Compose

   4. Minikube & Kubernetes (GCP)

9. Will be in a position to take the CHFAexam (Practice required)

Tools Covered:

• configtxgen, cryptogen, configtxlator

• orderer, peer, kafka

• fabric-ca-server, fabric-ca-client

• jq, docker, docker-compose, minikube kubernetes

• AWS &GCPinstallation

Before joining the course:

• Go through the preview lectures &Make sure you understand my accent :)

• Be aware that this course covers advanced topics &may require you to spend time on additional readings etc

• Understand the basics of Hyperledger Fabric - take a look at my course on Composer, it will help build a solid foundation

• Know this course will NOTteach you how to develop chaincode - take a look at my course on "Mastering Chaincode Development with GoLang"

Pre-Requisites:

• Students MUST have the conceptual knowledge of Hyperledger Fabric DLT

• Students MUST be comfortable with basic Linux commands

• Students MUST be comfortable with basic/simple shell scripts

• Students MUST be willing to learn (Fabric related technologies) on their own

Good to have:

• Basic understanding of Docker / Kubernetes

• Understanding of Virtual Machines | Hypervisors

• Access to any public cloud (AWS, Google ...)

• Working knowledge of JSON or YAML format
