About

The Client is a US-based software product company focused on developing innovative software solutions.

Challenge

The Client planned to enter the rising market of blockchain-based supply chain solutions with an MVP product but lacked blockchain-related expertise. The company was looking for a vendor experienced in blockchain technologies who would have a deep understanding of the supply chain specifics in the manufacturing industry they targeted.

Solution

VolgoTechnologies implemented a private blockchain system to allow manufacturers, distributors, and stores to trace goods and verify their authenticity at each stage of the supply chain. The team used the Hyperledger Fabric framework as the base of the blockchain system to benefit from its modular architecture and security required for private systems, where confidential information is shared.

The system works as follows: each member of the network has peer nodes set up and configured with cryptographic materials to authenticate them in the network. Peer nodes host a copy of the ledger for access and execute smart contracts, and help propose or approve transaction requests. To simplify the installation of smart contracts on the peer nodes, VolgoTechnologies team created Docker images with smart contract code.

Staging

systematically rolling out the blockchain infrastructure, integrating it with existing systems, and onboarding various participants in phases. Staging is critical to ensure smooth adoption, minimize risks, and enable scalability.
