Kubernetes Test Network

Starting in release 2.0, Hyperledger introduced the test-network to serve as both an accelerator and learning resource for running Fabric networks. In addition to providing a study guide for operational patterns, the test-network provided a baseline environment for members of the Fabric community to quickly get up to speed with a working, local system, author smart contracts, and develop simple blockchain applications.

While test-network provided a solid foundation for casual Fabric development, the over-reliance on Docker Compose introduced tremendous, non-trivial complexity when transitioning applications to production. Without belaboring the many issues and anti-patterns present in the Compose-based test network, we'll submit that the best path forward is to align the development and production patterns around a common orchestration framework - Kubernetes.

Similar to Fabric, Kubernetes introduces a steep learning curve and presents a dizzying array of operational flexibility. In this guide, we'll outline the design considerations in the ./network scripts, provide a supplement to the Fabric CA Deployment Guide, and build up to a reference model for realistic production deployments on Kubernetes.

Ahoy!

Network Topology

The Kube test network establishes as consortium among a dedicated ordering organization and two peer organizations. Participation in the network is managed over a channel, and transactions are committed to the blockchain ledgers by invoking the asset-transfer-basic Chaincode-as-a-Service running in a shared Kubernetes namespace. Each organization maintains indepedendent TLS and ECert CAs for management of local, channel, and user MSP contexts.
