Migration from Fabric isn't a technology decision — it's a cost-reduction project. This guide covers the technical path, the data migration strategy, and the consortium coordination needed to execute it.

Most blockchain comparisons are feature matrices. This one is a stopwatch. Two platforms. Two terminals. One goal: go from nothing to a running 3-node consortium with a submitted transaction and a verified block.

We timed every step. Here's what happened.
