Blockchain & Hyperledger Technology: The Beginner’s Guide is a comprehensive introduction to blockchain technology and the Hyperledger ecosystem, designed for individuals new to the field. This book provides a structured approach to understanding blockchain fundamentals, the key concepts behind Hyperledger, and how these technologies are transforming industries. Beginning with an overview of blockchain, readers will explore its core principles, including decentralized ledgers, cryptographic security, consensus mechanisms, and smart contracts. The book explains how blockchain differs from traditional centralized systems and highlights its benefits, such as transparency, immutability, security, and efficiency. A major focus of the book is on Hyperledger, an open-source initiative by the Linux Foundation that aims to advance enterprise blockchain adoption. Unlike public blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum, which are open to everyone, Hyperledger is designed for businesses and organizations requiring permissioned blockchain networks with enhanced privacy, scalability, and control. The book delves into various Hyperledger projects, including Hyperledger Fabric, Hyperledger Sawtooth, Hyperledger Besu, and others, explaining their architecture, use cases, and implementation strategies. Readers will learn how Hyperledger Fabric, one of the most widely used frameworks, enables businesses to build private and secure blockchain networks with smart contract functionality (known as chaincode). Hyperledger Sawtooth, on the other hand, provides a modular platform with an innovative consensus algorithm called Proof of Elapsed Time (PoET), suitable for enterprise applications.
