Welcome to the world of Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) with Hyperledger Bevel! In this guide, we will navigate through the process of deploying production-ready DLT platforms seamlessly and efficiently. So, grab your virtual toolbox, and let’s get started!
What is Hyperledger Bevel?
Hyperledger Bevel is like a master key for developers, designed to swiftly unlock the complexities of DLT platform deployment. Imagine you’re setting up a production line in a factory. Hyperledger Bevel helps you arrange all the necessary machinery (DLT platforms) effortlessly, so you can focus on the craftsmanship of your product (your applications).
Scope of the Project
The aim of Hyperledger Bevel is to provide an automation framework that enables developers to deploy various DLT platforms effortlessly. It supports smart deployments, operational features, and scaling through:
- Helm charts for deploying DLT nodes and managing crypto identities.
- Ansible playbooks to automate deployment processes.
- Integrated CI/CD practices via GitOps.
Supported platforms include Hyperledger Fabric, Hyperledger Indy, Quorum, and many more! Additional DLT platforms can also be incorporated easily.
Getting Started
To jumpstart your journey with Hyperledger Bevel, follow the Getting Started guidelines. For more details, you can also refer to our ReadTheDocs site.
Deployment Process Overview
Deployment Options
For each DLT platform supported by Hyperledger Bevel, there are two main routes for deployment:
- Using Helm Install (Refer to platform-specific charts).
- Using Ansible scripts for creating or joining existing networks.
Specific Platforms Deployment
Here are the specific DLT platforms you can deploy with Hyperledger Bevel:
Hyperledger Fabric
- Deployment via Helm: Follow the Fabric Charts README.
- Deployment via Ansible: Several scripts are available for network setup or joining.
Corda Enterprise
- Helm Installation: Refer to Corda Charts README.
- Ansible Scripts: Access scripts for network configuration and joining as well.
Corda Opensource
- Follow Corda Charts README for Helm deployment.
- Utilize Ansible for both new setup and joining networks.
Hyperledger Indy, Quorum, Hyperledger Besu, and Substrate
Each platform has similar deployment options, ensure to check their respective documentation for helm commands and Ansible scripts.
Troubleshooting Ideas
While embarking on your deployment journey, you may encounter some bumps along the way. Here are a few troubleshooting tips:
- If you face issues with Helm, ensure that it’s correctly installed and configured.
- For Ansible deployments, double-check the scripts for any errors or incorrect paths.
- Make sure your Kubernetes cluster is appropriately set up and responsive.
- Documentation on ReadTheDocs can provide additional solutions.
