Hyperledger fabric: a distributed operating system for permissioned blockchains

Whitepaper Index

> I think the novel contribution that Fabric brought was not its performance evaluation methodology, but rather being the first (if I'm not mistaken) distributed operating system for permissioned blockchains, tailored for enterprises. Their strongest innovation, in my POV, is the execute-order-validate paradigm, which allowed for much better transaction throughput than public blockchains. Rafael Belchior Ph.D. student in Computer Science and Engineering, Blockchain - Técnico Lisboa Abstract snippet: This paper describes Fabric, its architecture, the rationale behind various design decisions, its most prominent implementation aspects, as well as its distributed application programming model. paper
