What are the minimum component requirements for an entity participate in a blockchain network? #network #fabric

Hello everyone,

So my question is exactly that, what are the minimum component requirements for a organization to fully participate in a fabric business network? I mean, is a peer and a couchdb enough? Do all the organizations need to have a peer node and orderer node along with couchdb? Can a organization have 0 components and still be able to participate or interact in any form?

Thanks in advance guys :)

Just a peer is enough, you don't even need couchdb although it is recommended for fast rich queries. You can use a third-party orderer to send the transactions. 
The steps are:
    1. Generate an identity for that peer with the right certificates
    2. Add it to a channel
    3. Fetch the block of that channel
    4. Join the channel
    5. Install a chaincode package generated and provided by an admin of the channel
