This lab is to make running Hyperledger distributed ledgers under the Mininet platform.

Hyperledger Umbra

An emulation platform for Hyperledger blockchains.

To understand and run Umbra, please take a look at the Umbra Docs.

Also, if needed download an Umbra virtual machine. Use VirtualBox to import the source file umbra.ova. The recommended settings are 4 cores and 4GB of memory. To use the Umbra virtual machine, login: umbra / password: lives. The umbra source folder is located inside the home directory (/home/umbra/umbra). All the umbra components are in place and installed. Check the documentation example to give it a try.

This project is the outcome of the 2019 internship project named Hyperledger Umbra.

This lab is intended to be an ongoing project to provide a research tool for understanding and improving the Hyperledger blockchain platforms as well as for conducting future research in consensus algorithms and scalability.

This lab is not intended to be a shipping product but rather an ongoing collaboration between academic, corporate, and hobbyist researchers improving upon existing capabilities and also trying new things with Hyperledger blockchains.
