Hyperledger Fabric (How many peers for network with many organizations)


Recently, I've been diving into the Hyperledger Fabric documentations on network strucutre, design concepts, etc. One question that I haven't been able to find a clear answer to is this:

When creating a network with many organization (30+), do you assign each organization a peer, or can multiple organization be hosted on a single or small collection of peers? What is best practice for creating networks with many organizations (30+)


Solution

  • At least one peer per organization (preferably more). It makes no sense sharing a peer between organizations. Would your company share its resources (and even its keys) with its partners (or even competitors)?
