In this meetup we’ll discuss to how deploy Hyperledger Fabric 3.0 in a cluster using SmartBFT instead of Raft.

We will look at the differences between the Raft and BFT options and discuss in practical terms what this means for Fabric and how you can take advantage of that.

More about BFT support in Hyperledger Fabric can be found in [the Ordering Service section](https://hyperledger-fabric.readthedocs.io/en/latest/orderer/ordering_service.html) of the Fabric documentation.
