Here, I’m assuming that you’ve set up your fabric network and trying to connect explorer to network. You checked official documentation of explorer and somehow you run out of many issues while setting up. So you opened medium and searched for “connecting hyperledger explorer to network”. boom! There are many articles out there. You opened one by one and somehow they are all scared you that you need to set up Nodejs, Postgres DB, create tables and rows, and a bunch of npm install commands on each subdirectory. Forget it. How can I forget if I don’t remember? Well, never…

In the previous article, I have explained what is quantum ledger database, benefits, use-cases, and how it differs from regular databases and how it is related to the blockchain. This article is to show how to set up Amazon’s QLDB and use it in our Nodejs application as a Database. I see this as a more realistic implementation. Hopefully this guide will get you on the road to “getting started with QLDB” without too much of a headache.

Amazon QLDB is a fully managed ledger database that provides a transparent, immutable, and cryptographically verifiable transaction log ‎owned by a…

Quantum Ledger Database(QLDB) is a No-SQL(Semi-SQL & Semi-NoSQL) Append-only database that provides an immutable, transparent, and cryptographically verifiable transaction log ‎owned by a central authority. Since it is a No-SQL database, It has the ability to store a lot of semi-unstructured data using a document-oriented data model. Moreover, it Uses SQL like data structure(Tables and Rows) and a language(PartiQL). So, it can leverage current SQL developers to offer robust ways to query and manage data.

QLDB vs SQL,NoSQL Databases:

Traditional Databases:

Any other traditional databases (SQL and No-SQL) store data in the form of a table or JSON document model. Within these traditional databases, data…

Wait, What is GraphQL?

Is it a new query language? A new type of database? Some other JavaScript black magic? Nope, none of the above.

in a nutshell, GraphQL is a Query Language for APIs that describes how to ask for data and is generally used to load data from a server to a client. Firstly, it doesn’t have anything to do with databases. It is not an alternative to SQL. It is basically used to send/receive data between client and server using a minimum number of HTTP requests. In order to achieve this, you have to create relations…

Due to the unbelievable popularity of blockchain technology, IBM’s Hyperledger Fabric project touching the sky, Not just because it is one of the blockchain frameworks. having some great unique features like permissioned architecture, Plug and Play components, Channel support for confidential Transactions, modularity, and scalability. due to all these facts, Hyperledger Fabric became revolutionary in this Blockchain Era. It has huge potential to change the industry and we are already seeing it right now. Hyperledger Fabric has progressed a lot over the past few months. Whether you are new to Hyperledger Fabric or have some experience and want to…

Hyperledger Fabric is a container-based blockchain framework used for developing decentralized applications using plug-and-play components aimed at making it modular. It doesn’t mean that we can’t create network components (peers and orderers) natively. But this isn’t how the software is distributed. However, chaincode currently supports containerized (sandbox) environments only.

In the previous article, I have described core components and implementation of Nodejs chaincode. we’ve set up our Dev environment, developed our chaincode, get everything up & running locally. We installed and invoked all chaincode functions via our CLI Container. Everything looks fine. Now what? Is that everything we ever wanted…

“ Little Science takes you away from God. but, more of it takes you to him.” --Louis Pasteur

This is Earth. You live here on this planet somewhere. Everything you ever have known is located right here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. it has a diameter of 12,742 km at the equator. On the Solar System scale, just exactly how small it is? -- A 0.12 pixel sized Pale blue dot. Meaning that, If we could capture…
