Developer showcase series: Yi (Sam) Yuan, IBM

Back to our Developer Showcase Series to learn what developers in the real world are doing with Hyperledger technologies. Next up is Yi (Sam) Yuan, Back-End Developer Engineer at IBM.

回到我们的开发者展示系列,让我们了解现实世界中的开发者如何使用超级账本技术。 这次为我们分享的是 来自IBM 后端开发工程师袁怿 (Sam Yuan)。

Q: Give a bit of background on what you’re working on and how you got into blockchain:

A: I got involved with Hyperledger Fabric and blockchain when I joined IBM in January, 2019. Currently, I am working part time on projects for the Hyperledger Technical Working Group China (TWGC) and the Hyperledger Performance and Scale Working Group (PSWG). Recent topics from Fabric contributor meetings include new open telemetry support and pluggable crypto service.

问:您好,袁老师!您可以介绍一下您的工作背景以及您是如何加入区块链领域的:

答:19年入职IBM之后我接触到了Hyperledger Fabric和区块链。目前我正在参与超级账本中国技术工作组(TWGC)和超级账本性能和规模化工作组(PSWG)的相关活动,主要关注在Hyperledger Fabric最新roadmap中的密码学模块改造和open telemetry支持的相关内容。

Q: What Hyperledger frameworks or tools are you using in your projects? Any new developments to share? Can you sum up your experience with Hyperledger technologies?

A: I am a user for Hyperledger Fabric and a maintainer of some tools being developed by the TWGC, including Tape, which is a simple traffic generator for Hyperledger Fabric and others.

For more on the tools being developed in TWGC, please visit the TWGC GitHub or these wiki pages for an introduction in English: https://wiki.hyperledger.org/display/PSWG/PSWG+December+14%2C+2021 and https://wiki.hyperledger.org/display/PSWG/PSWG+May+18%2C+2021.

问:您在项目中使用了哪些超级账本的框架或工具? 有什么新进展可以跟大家分享吗? 您能总结一下您使用超级账本技术的经验吗?

答:我目前在使用Hyperledger Fabric, 并且在维护TWGC下的几个开源项目,包括Fabric简易性能测试工具Tape。详情请访问TWGC在github上的页面 https://github.com/Hyperledger-TWGC。作为技术人员,我希望大家能够通过动手实践的方式来了解Hyperledger相关项目。比如,找到hello world文档并且尝试,通过动手实践来学习。

Q: What do you think is most important for Hyperledger Foundation to focus on in the next year?
A: Business cases for Hyperledger technologies. 

问:您认为超级账本基金会今年重点应该聚焦在哪方面?

答:超级账本商业案例

Q: What advice would you offer other technologists or developers interested in getting started working on blockchain? *

A: Experience is the best teacher so get as much of it as you can.

问:您会给其他有兴趣开始使用区块链的技术人员或开发人员提供什么建议?

答:实践出真知,从现在开始,开始动手实践吧。

Q: As Hyperledger projects continue to mature, what do you see as the most interesting technologies, apps, or use cases coming out as a result?

A: Advance crypto related technologies (e.g., zero knowledge proofs)

问:随着超级账本项目的不断成熟,您认为由此产生的最有趣的技术、应用程序或用例是什么?

答:应用密码学,如零知识证明

Q: What’s the one issue or problem you hope blockchain can solve?

A: Worldwide health care fight against COVID-19.

问:您希望区块链能解决的一个问题或者一件事情是什么?

答:全球范围内的医疗相关领域,以帮助抗击疫情。

Q: Where do you hope to see Hyperledger and/or blockchain in five years?
A: As blockchain is/will be next generation of data exchange solution, I expect that companies from all kinds of business use this technology and benefit from it

问:您希望看到超级账本和/或者区块链在五年后将呈现出什么发展情况?   

答:我希望看到区块链成为下一代数据交互的方式,并在各个行业中落地。

Q: What is the best piece of developer advice you’ve ever received?

A: Too many things helped me. In short, I would suggest reading Enterprise Open Source: A Practical Introduction from the Linux Foundation.

问:您收到的最好的开发人员建议是什么?

答:简单而言,请参考 Enterprise Open Source: A Practical Introduction from the Linux Foundation.

Q: What technology could you not live without?

A: Digital and telecommunication technologies

问:您觉得生活中哪些技术是必不可少的?

答:数字化技术和通讯技术
