Go, Java, Node.js
Since launching in 2015, Hyperledger Fabric has been a top choice for enterprises looking to build apps on permissioned blockchain networks. The modular architecture is capable of powering large-scale applications that require enterprise-grade data security.
The ability to protect certain details of peer transactions has made Hyperledger Fabric a go-to protocol for industries like financial services, supply chains, and the insurance industry. It works for complex use cases that involve personally identifiable information and proprietary business data.
Hyperledger Fabric is one of the many protocol choices available on Kaleido. With a full suite of plug and play services, flexible cloud deployment options, and powerful APIs, Kaleido is the easiest way to run a Fabric network anywhere.
Hyperledger Fabric is an open source project designed to handle enterprise-grade use cases. Key differentiators are its quick transaction throughput and its modularity, allowing for more innovation and optimization regardless of industry use cases. Other benefits include scalability and security, key pillars of any enterprise application.
Hyperledger Fabric is a modular blockchain framework that allows you to plug in different components, such as consensus algorithms and membership services, and tailor networks to your needs
Part of the Hyperledger project of the Linux Foundation, Hyperledger Fabric is an open source protocol that allows the enterprise to build custom applications and limit vendor risks
With a high level of security for enterprise users, Fabric uses a permissioned network to prevent unauthorized access
Kaleido is a Hyperledger Certified Service Provider (HCSP) with a deep expertise in helping enterprises successfully adopt Hyperledger tools. Our founding partners are also active with the Hyperledger Foundation. Sophia Lopez is a General Member representative on the Hyperledger Foundation Governing Board and Jim Zhang is a member of the Hyperledger Foundation Technical Oversight Committee.
Talk to an ExpertQuorum is a blockchain protocol specially designed for use in a private blockchain network, where there is only a single member owning all the nodes or a consortium blockchain network where multiple members each own a portion of the network.
Quorum is designed to be highly scalable, with low transaction latencies and the ability to support a higher number of transactions per second than other blockchain protocols. This makes it well-suited for use in high-volume applications.
Quorum includes a number of security features that are designed to protect sensitive or proprietary data, like private transactions that allow network participants to transact without revealing the details of their transactions to the rest of the network.
Quorum is based on the Ethereum protocol and can support a wide range of decentralized applications and smart contracts. It is also highly modular and customizable so that it can be tailored to the needs of specific use cases.
There is no cost required to submit transactions to a Quorum network, unlike Ethereum, which requires the payment of high and unpredictable gas fees to submit transactions.

Talk to an ExpertHyperledger Besu is a Java-based blockchain platform that utilizes a distributed ledger to store and manage data in a secure and decentralized manner. It offers advanced privacy and permissioning features, pluggable consensus algorithms, and interoperability with other blockchain platforms.
Transactions are validated by nodes in the network using a consensus mechanism, and once validated, they are added to the blockchain. This allows for transparent and secure record-keeping of transactions, enabling enterprises to reduce costs, improve operational efficiency, and enhance data privacy and security.
Enterprise blockchain networks require efficient consensus algorithms, with high throughput characteristics, built-in permissioning, and predictable behaviour.
Hyperledger Besu is Open Source, Java based and Apache 2.0 licensed.
Hyperledger Fabric is a private blockchain that allows developers to create subnets, or channels, meaning that certain proprietary or personal information can remain confidential. This makes Fabric a protocol of choice for industries like financial services, insurance, and supply chain management.
Businesses reach production faster when they combine Avalanche Subnets with the full suite of web3 development tools offered on the Kaleido platform.
When you launch Polygon Supernets on Kaleido, you access the unique scaling solutions Polygon has to offer and an array of pluggable tools to mint tokens, create assets, and monitor activity—making it easier than ever to stand up ambitious web3 apps.
Quorum is a protocol of choice for industries like financial services, insurance, and supply chain management where enterprise-grade.
Hyperledger Besu is an open-source, Ethereum-compatible blockchain protocol maintained and supported by the Hyperledger Foundation. It can be run on either public or private networks and is designed to be scalable, flexible, and secure, making it a popular choice for businesses looking to build and deploy blockchain dapps.
Hyperledger Besu is fully EVM-compatible, which means it can run all existing Ethereum dApps and smart contracts. It also supports various Ethereum consensus algorithms, including Proof-of-Work (PoW) and Proof-of-Authority (PoA). In addition, Hyperledger Besu provides a range of advanced features and tools, such as permissioning and privacy, that are useful for customizing the blockchain to meet specific business needs.
Hyperledger Besu is widely used in the enterprise blockchain space and has been adopted by a number of major companies across a variety of use cases, including supply chain management, financial services, and digital identity.
Yes, Hyperledger Besu is a free and open-source software project developed and maintained by the Hyperledger Foundation. It is released under the Apache 2.0 license, which allows users to freely use, modify, and distribute the software for any purpose. You can download and install the latest version of Hyperledger Besu on the Besu Github.
Even though Hyperledger Besu itself is free, any application built with Besu will need to be deployed before it can be widely used in a production environment. Kaleido's platform makes it easy to deploy a Besu based solution across clouds and geographies, while also providing a full suite of tools that simplify Besu development, helping you to build faster.
The main benefits of using Hyperledger Besu include:
Hyperledger Besu and Hyperledger Fabric are both designed to support Enterprise blockchain applications, but the key difference between them is that Besu is an Ethereum client and Fabric is not. This means that Besu is fully EVM-compatible and supports both public and private networks. Fabric only supports private networks, and executes business logic via Chaincode rather than smart contracts.
