the Hyper Ledger, the project for Blockchain solutions with a focus on Business, has created a program library for Blockchain developers. The Tool with name “Ursa” will be also developers outside of the Hyper Ledger.

On Tuesday, may 4. December, Hyper Ledger Technical Steering Committee (TSC) announced a new Tool for developers. In the case of the so-called project Ursa is a Library (program library). A Library contains auxiliary modules that are used in the development of Software. The advantage of such libraries is that not every programmer needs to develop all of the software modules, but the common Code can use. Ursa is intended for Hyper Ledger, since the modules are freely accessible, able to use the other developers of these modules as well.

Hyper Ledger objective: Blockchain-development and cooperation, push

With the Ursa Hyper Ledger could simplify simplify the work of Blockchain developers. To Blockchain-program products, developers need a wide range of Knowledge. You need to not only learn new programming languages, but also cryptography and security concepts to understand. Many programmers keep the complexity of the area, since you have such a broad Knowledge is missing. Program libraries, such as Ursa can help. Thanks to libraries such as Ursa, the developers do not need to understand the function of the components (e.g., cryptography), you can use but still. A similar strategy Hyper Ledger followed with Hyper Ledger Sawtooth. Sawtooth is also modular, but not individual modules, but an entire framework (“Framework”) for Blockchain solutions. The hope is that this allows companies to more quickly develop new Hyper Ledger products.

another goal of Ursa is to promote the cooperation between the Hyper Ledger projects. Developers benefit from each other if you are using the modules together. This way, you can discover, for example, Bugs that affect the security, faster. That’s why security experts from Hyper Ledger work including Ursa. Ursa is not Hyper Ledger is the only project that they are on cooperation. Recently, Hyper Ledger and the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance announced their collaboration.

in the case of Hyper-Ledger

in addition to the cooperation with the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance was Hyper-Ledger also active elsewhere. At the beginning of the stock Hyper Ledger, with 30 members, and two-Blockchain framework. Currently there are approximately 200 members and five Frameworks (including Sawtooth). One of the most famous projects IBM Food Trust (Supply Chain for the food industry). The Linux Foundation has established the Hyper Ledger and claims to be the Hyper Ledger is the fastest growing organization of the Linux Foundation.
