Hyperledger SSI Ecosystem
In the beginning, there was no Ursa or Aries, just Indy with all functionality together. As time went by, the Hyperledger community realized that there are a lot of useful cryptographic primitives which can be extracted and used by other Hyperledger projects. That’s the reason why Ursa has been created. It’s only one ursa repository containing encryption, signatures, and zero-knowledge algorithms. I’m not a cryptographer, and I’ve been working mainly with Indy and Aries, so I don’t know many details about it. I will leave that investigation up to you if you need to learn more. However, for many SSI use case implementations, you will be good just with knowledge of Indy and Aries.

Hyperledger SSI Ecosystem
indy-node contains a source code for the node running as part of the distributed ledger network. It implements PBFT consensus protocol, and it’s not intended to run as a public permissionless network as Bitcoin or Etherum but rather as a permissioned network. There is not one single instance of the Indy network. There are many of them. The most famous and publicly available is Sovrin, which was the first one. You can also use indy-node to run your network or run it locally on your machine via Docker for testing purposes.
