Case Study: Tech Mahindra achieves secure, streamlined digital transformation of Abu Dhabi’s land registry with Hyperledger Fabric

How Tech Mahindra Deployed Hyperledger Fabric for the Digital Transformation of Abu Dhabi’s Land Registry

Tech Mahindra set out to digitize Abu Dhabi’s paper-based land registry, a complex, multi-stakeholder process that could span years and was prone to errors, lost documents, and security concerns. To create a secure, permissioned blockchain backbone for this transformation, Tech Mahindra selected Hyperledger’s Fabric platform to provide privacy, governance, and an auditable single source of truth.

Using Hyperledger Fabric, Tech Mahindra integrated a blockchain layer into the existing Smart Hub portal, implemented private channels, smart contracts, and seven node.js APIs, and deployed peers and an orderer with Raft consensus to enable viewing, time-limited sharing, and immutable audit trails. The pilot onboarded Abu Dhabi City Municipality and Aldar Properties, protected citizen data, removed manual touchpoints, and established a scalable foundation intended to serve up to 1.45 million residents—benefits underpinned by Hyperledger’s privacy features and active open-source community.
