  Abstract

Hyperledger Fabric(HLF) is an open-source platform for operating permissioned blockchain, allowing only authorized participants to access the network and validate chaincode, thereby providing high integrity and security. Accordingly, it is utilized in various environment such as finance, healthcare, and supply chain management, and is widely used in cloud environments like Amazon and IBM. Existing related work focuses on improving the performance and scalability of HLF and on the placement of container-based nodes, but work addressing the security vulnerabilities when operating in containers is insufficient. In this study, we propose an operating method that utilizes the security container, Kata, to enhance the isolation and security of HLF, and compare it with native containers to analyze Hyperledger Fabric performance and CPU usage. Analysis results show that Kata containers exhibit CPU bottlenecks and performance degradation due to the additional virtualization layer, but these bottlenecks can be alleviated by allocating proper vCPUs per different Hyperledger Fabric nodes. This paper provides a practical reference for designing secure blockchain container environments by experimentally analyzing the CPU resource allocation per HLF node.
