Capabilities

Hyperledger Fabric is an open source, permissioned blockchain framework, started in 2015 by The Linux Foundation. It is a modular, general-purpose framework that offers unique identity management and access control features, which make it suitable for a variety of industry applications such as track-and-trace of supply chains, trade finance, loyalty and rewards, as well as clearing and settlement of financial assets. Hyperledger Fabric is built to support enterprise-grade use cases, and can support quick transaction throughput from its consensus mechanism. Because Fabric is a permissioned blockchain framework, it does not need to solve for Byzantine Fault Tolerance which can cause slower performance when validating transactions on the network.
