SBFT Multiple Leader Ordering Service

Question

How can a Smart-BFT Multiple Leader Ordering Service be implemented ? What are the implementation changes that needs to be incorporated (refer to some source code) ? I was looking at https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric/blob/main/orderer/consensus/consensus.go but I do not think that this reference would be enough. What can be the added pros and cons in this kind of implementation ?

Answer 1

There is currently some work underway to implement BFT ordering for Fabric. The recent BFT RFC is a good place to start. If you are interested in finding out more I would recommend participating in the fabric-orderer channel on the Hyperledger Discord Chat .
