Spain’s Alastria consortium, which boasts more than 500 member organizations, has partnered with Telefónica to build an enterprise blockchain network based on Hyperledger Fabric. The consortium prefers to be blockchain agnostic. However, to date, it has built two networks on different versions of enterprise Ethereum – Quorum and Hyperledger Besu.

There will be two versions of the Fabric network provided by Telefónica. One will be an open shared network available at no cost to Alastria members and is intended for proofs of concept and low demand solutions. The other is a closed platform for heavier load applications where Telefónica will commit to service levels such as availability, scalability and performance.

Telefónica is a founding member of Alastria and also a member of the Hyperledger alliance, part of the Linux Foundation.
