How it works...

We reviewed how transaction flow works in Fabric. Fabric uses the execute-order-validate model with the following seven steps:

1. Client application submits a transaction proposal
2. Endorsers execute the proposed transactions
3. Client applications receive transaction proposal response
4. Transactions are submitted for ordering
5. Transactions are delivered to committing peer
6. Validated transaction are applied to world state
7. Client applications get notified with the status of the transaction

In the next recipe, we will walk through how to install Hyperledger Fabric on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
