Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) recently said in a blog post, blockchain has the potential to enable new possibilities that were previously out of reach for businesses, governments, and society as a whole through its ability to empower decentralized, secure, transparent, and immutable interactions, processes, and transactions. ConsenSys is an AWS Partner Network (APN) Advanced Technology Partner that is enabling consortiums-that is, associations of two or more organizations-to create and operate enterprise blockchain networks on Amazon Web Services (AWS) without spending months and millions of dollars writing custom code. For Kaleido, a ConsenSys business, the goal is simple: make blockchain radically simple for organizations to adopt so that its societies will fully benefit from decentralized models and technologies. By helping enterprises and governments harness the power of Ethereum, an open-source blockchain-based protocol, Kaleido empowers organizations to accelerate the many ways blockchain technology can meet their unique needs or create new value. The result is that blockchain is more accessible and easier for customers to use, and even faster for them to connect blockchain solutions to AWS services securely. This helps customers who want to get started quickly on blockchain projects as they progress from proof of concepts to pilots and into production.
