Enterprise Blockchain Architecture Implementation Strategy

From an eagle's view, these are the 3 dots to connect to build a solution.

1. Workflow Detailing:

Identify every asset to be tracked and their transaction within the flow.

Recording the workflow as an activity diagram, the business process diagram, or on an excel sheet.

Mapping all the integration points and user personas.

Every node in the workflow is detailed by identifying the integration points and describing user interactions as use-case or user stories in the context of user personas and roles.

2. Infrastructure Setup

Based on the blockchain platform, the computational and the networking infrastructure is set up and configured.

This includes setting up peer nodes, acquiring certificates from the certifying authorities, and configuring digital certificates.

The deployment and the configuration vary, based on technical infrastructure, whether on-premise or cloud, Most cloud services provide ready templates, to begin with: however, they need to be configured and customized.

3. Business Services

Developing blockchain application comprises developing, deploying, and testing multiple modules and their interoperations:

Application Module:

Implementing web application and presentation logic.

Invoking Blockchain transactions.

Integration Module:

Develop APIs for integrating with internal and external systems.

Implementing batch process requirements.

Blockchain Module:

Coding the digital assets.

Implement smart contracts.
