Running Blockchain as a Service on Kubernetes
summary
Alibaba Cloud runs Blockchain-as-a-Service on Kubernetes using Hyperledger Fabric, claiming a one-minute deployment for basic networks and supporting cross-region, cross-VPC consortium networking. Fabric clusters typically involve >30 containers, >27 services, >10 images, so the engineering uses Helm charts (split into smaller charts), Ali OSS for images, ConfigMaps/Secrets, cloud/block storage and PVCs for growing ledgers. Chaincode lifecycle and image-build latency cause timeouts in some tests, so daemonless and isolation options are explored; the demo builds a cross-company asset network.
