  1. Hyperledger composer helps smoother, faster and easier integration of the blockchain into already existing business system.
  2. Hyperledger composter supports the existing Hyperledger Fabric blockchain infrastructure, therefore simplifies integration of the blockchain. (My understanding is that this works in a similar way like having an application at the top of the operating system, hence application makes everything more user friendly?) =>not sure about this Filip
  3. Within the model file we need to define transactions which can interact with assets
  4. a) Participants can have their access to transactions restricted/unrestricted based on their role. Participants on each side have different goals so that mutual transaction of the asset will be completed to satisfy both sides.

  1. What is the goal of Hyperledger Composer?
    To make it easier to conceptualize an application that will be developed in hyperledger fabric.

  2. What is the relationship between Hyperledger Fabric and Hyperledger Composer?
    The Composer can model business applications. Because it supports hyperledger fabric, composer can be used to validate transactions.

  3. What do we define within the Model File?
    Assets, participants and transactions.

  4. What is the relationship between assets, participants and transactions?
    Depends on the application. These are the entities in the application and they will follow the application use cases. Candidly, this is a little vague. It makes complete sense in the context of a given application, but I’m not quite sure how to answer this one.

1. What is the goal of Hyperledger Composer?

Hyperledger Composer is an extensive, open development toolset and framework to make developing blockchain applications easier. The primary goal is to accelerate time to value, and make it easier to integrate your blockchain applications with the existing business systems. You can use Composer to rapidly develop use cases and deploy a blockchain solution in weeks rather than months. Composer allows you to model your business network and integrate existing systems and data with your blockchain applications.

2. What is the relationship between Hyperledger Fabric and Hyperledger Composer?

Hyperledger Composer is a tool for building business networks that is made in order to accelerate the development of applications built on top of Hyperledger fabric.

3. What do we define within the Model File?

  • Assets
  • Participants
  • Transactions

4. What is the relationship between:

  • Assets
    assets are tangible or intangible goods, services, or property
  • Participants
    participants who interact with assets
  • Transactions
    A standard asset exchange. According to Hyperledger Fabric’s official documentation, A transaction is an invoke result or an instantiate result that is submitted for ordering, validation, and committing. … Invoke transactions perform read/write operation on the ledger.

    To provide an easy to use environment for especially the smaller enterprises that do not hold the expertise or budget to develop a whole new ecosystem.
  2. What is the relationship between Hyperledger Fabric and Hyperledger Composer?
    Hyperledger Composer is built on top of Hyperledger Fabric.
  3. What do we define within the Model File?
    We define the user groups, entities, transaction structure and their attributes.
  4. What is the relationship between assets, participants and transactions?
    Participants and assets are the dependables for the transactions.

Please help me understand how a food product (or other homogeneous item) utilizes Blockchain to trace from source to final product.

I can understand how Blockchain can be used with an identifiable product like a diamond or an electronic device. However, I am challenged with a food product.
If I go into the grocery store, how can I track an orange (for example)? What differentiates one orange from another?
I am trying to understand this as a ProjectManager/BusinessAnalyst with a technical (not current) background.

Thanks for your help.

I would assume it would be more like tracking a box of orangges, pallet of oranges, or a shipment of oranges. Not individual oranges.
