3 Reasons Hyperledger Has Blockchain's Best Development Model
The nascent business-to-business permissioned ledger industry is moving rapidly from pilots to real product development and deployment. But as this novel application space opens up, it is important for technologists to start answering hard questions about what software development processes will provide the blockchain layer of these applications stacks. The permissioned ledger industry proposes to build a trustworthy and scalable infrastructure for the finance industry and general purpose Internet security. However, the dominant development model in our industry thus far (capital-strapped....

A blockchain project developed by several Japanese firms including by startup Soramitsu and IT giant Hitachi has been accepted into the Hyperledger blockchain initiative. Developed by Hyperledger member and blockchain startup Soramitsu, Iroha was first unveiled during a meeting of the project’s Technical Steering Committee last month. Iroha is being pitched as both a supplement to other Hyperledger-tied infrastructure projects like IBM’s Fabric (on which it is based) and Intel’s Sawtooth Lake. At the same time, Soramitsu is positioning Iroha as a means to encourage the development of....
Two of the releases are in their primary iteration, while the latter titled Iroha is a preview version of its second release. Enterprise blockchain firm Hyperledger Foundation has announced the development and release of three roadmap projects: Cactus 1.0, FireFly 1.0 and a preview version of Iroha 2.0's long-term support (LTS).Operating under the umbrella of the Linux Foundation, Hyperledger supports an ecosystem of fourteen distributed ledgers. The deployment of the three technological tools is expected to assist consumers and businesses across areas of blockchain, Web3 and decentralized....
IBM launches its Openblockhain repository on GitHub under the liberal Apache license. OpenBlockchain represents a significant milestone in blockchain development, as the non-copyleft open source licensing allows the business enterprise community to start serious Hyperledger development using the tool. IBM Releases Vital Blockchain Development Tool. IBM’s involvement in the Linux Foundation’s Hyperledger Project spurred the release of this blockchain development framework, and the release represents the start of a new era in networking – with applications using advanced blockchain....
Amidst the fanfare of the release of R3's Corda distributed ledger code, another milestone slipped by almost unnoticed – Hyperledger surpassed 100 members. On its own, the news isn't that important – 100 is, after all, just a number. But combine the two reports, and you unearth a development that could define the future of blockchain. Hyperledger was created a year ago as a unifying "umbrella" for enterprise blockchain open-source development. Among the participants are blockchain companies (including R3), financial institutions and tech giants. Its approach so far has been a mix....
Hyperledger, a cross-industry collaborative effort started by the Linux Foundation and joined by many banks, giant tech companies, blockchain specific companies and others, with the aim of developing an open source protocol for private blockchain use, has extended its hand to the public blockchain community in what appears to be an offer of partnership and closer collaboration. Brian Behlendorf, Executive Director of Hyperledger, who was a primary developer of the Apache Web Server, a founding member of the Apache Software Foundation and serves on the board of Mozilla Foundation and....
