A Survey Of Hyperledger Fabric For Business Use Cases

As authors have investigated the use cases for Blockchain, they have gravitated to Hyperledger Fabric, a framework supported by the Linux Foundation to allow for its use in enterprise environments. While Hyperledger Fabric provides the framework, it still has unanswered gaps that become apparent as we review the application of the technology across multiple sectors. Identifying gaps will allow us to focus on those areas and make Hyperledger Fabric more useful. Research has shown similar challenges across sectors but no clear guidance that allows researchers to know what is permissible and what is not permissible in an enterprise environment when using Hyperledger Fabric. Compliance, scalability, and security are areas of study across sectors, and bringing these ideas together will allow further targeted research.
