### A Sneak Peek into the FEATURES of widely used Blockchain frameworks

Sneak Peek into the FEATURES of various commonly known Blockchain frameworks:

Blockchain Frameworks do vary based on distinct needs, i.e., please choose the right framework from very many Blockchain technology options based on whether you need

* a **Centralized ledger** database {such as Etherum (Public)/ AWS QLDB (Private)},
    
* or a **Multi-party** {Channel Management for multiple stakeholder Scenario - such as Hyperledger Fabric},
    
* or a **Fully managed blockchain network** that helps eliminate intermediaries {such as, AWS Managed Blockchain on HLF}
    

However, The commonality amongst All of the types of available frameworks

* **DAPP**: Blockchain is a DAPPs (Decentralized Applications).
    
* **Data Provenance**: Blockchain comes baked in with *Data Provenance* by offering *immutable and cryptographically verifiable record of transactions*
    
* each offers an **immutable** and **cryptographically verifiable record of transactions**
    
* each one is also available in **DOCKER (containers)**
    

### BlockchainOPS

BlockchainOps:

* **Full Scale Operationalization Paradigm for Blockchain**
    
* It's application of **DevOps** in Blockchain lifecycle management.
    

One can use Kubernetes (CaaS) & Containerization (Docker) to seamlessly manage and govern by orchasterating

* any **containerized Blockchain network** lifecycle with
    
    * the High availability,
        
    * Auto Scalability,
        
    * Self healing
        
* any kind of **Blockchain workloads**
    
    * Smart Contracts,
        
    * Member registry,
        
    * et al
        

### When to use Which Framework

**Q. What Blockchain technology/framework should I choose on depending upon varying needs, such as**

* public or private Network,
    
* Permissioned Network or permissionless Network,
    
* Centralized ledger,
    
* Multi-party et al? ANS: Blcokchain Frameworks do vary based on distinct needs. Here goes a quick look into the right framework from very many Blockchain technology options based on varying needs-
    
* a **Centralized ledger** database {such as **Etherum (Public)/ AWS QLDB (Private)**},
    
* or a **Multi-party** {Channel Management for multiple stakeholder Scenario - such as **Hyperledger Fabric**},
    
* or a **Fully managed blockchain network** that helps eliminate intermediaries {such as, **AWS Managed Blockchian on HLF/EThrum**}
    

**Q. When to use Hyperledger Fabric & When to use Etherum?** ANS: Hyperledger Fabric is well-suited for applications that require *stringent privacy and permission controls with a known set of members*.

* for example, a `financial application` where certain `trade-related data is only shared with select banks`
    

Whereas, Ethereum is well-suited for highly distributed blockchain networks where transparency of data for all members is important,

* for example, a `customer loyalty` blockchain network that allows `any retailer in the network to independently verify a user's activity across all members to redeem benefits`.
    
* Ethereum can also be used for joining a public Ethereum blockchain network.
