The key difference is that hyperledger sawtooth supports both permissioned and permissionless blockchain networks whereas Hyperledger Fabric support only permissioned blockchain networks. On the basis of that, there are other differences based on parameters like consensus, the type of network, security, privacy etc.

Thanks for bringing up this discussion!

In my opinion, Hyperledger Sawtooth supports both permissioned and permissionless blockchain implementation whereas Hyperledger Fabric support only permissioned blockchain implementation.

Hyperledger Fabric is a distributed ledger platform that delivers resiliency, scalability, flexibility and confidentiality. Hyperledger Fabric enrolls members via a trusted membership service provider. Hyperledger Sawtooth can be configured to operate as a public network.
