Keywords: horizontal cooperation; co-opetition; peer-to-peer network; micro-service architecture; Kubernetes; Hyperledger Fabric

Abstract:
The paper identifies conditions that enable competing business entities to interoperate through their mutual cooperation function while maintaining a strict separation of their competing functions, and in particular the secure operations of their core IT-business infrastructure. Implications on the architecture of the cooperation function and an implementation realized using the Kubernetes micro- service infrastructure and Hyperledger Fabric are presented.
