Hyperledger Global Forum 2022

Efficient supply chain tracking is a key requirement in semiconductor industry to limit the grey market by providing transparency, product provenance and detection of counterfeit units. It is estimated that 7.5 billion dollars are wasted in semiconductor grey market every year. AMD has developed a Hyperledger Fabric based solution for tracking of its supply chain operations to provide increased transparency and product provenance, thus reducing the impact of grey market. Since performance at scale is a key requirement, FPGA based hardware acceleration is used which can enable processing of tens of thousands of transactions per second. This session will discuss production implementation challenges, use of hardware acceleration, automated deployment processes, and a short demo at the end. The audience will leave the session with a better understanding of designing a scalable supply chain application for the semiconductor industry, leveraging hardware acceleration technology.
