Block.one Debuts Big-Business Version of EOSIO Blockchain

One, the company behind the multibillion-dollar-backed EOS ecosystem, has its sights locked on the enterprise blockchain space.

Blockchain cloud services can offer businesses a quick and painless way to spin up digital ledgers on their preferred cloud computing platforms.

"Despite knowing the inherent benefits that blockchain will deliver to their business operations, many in-house product engineering teams are wary of the complexity involved in setting up and administering their own blockchain," said Block.

It's commonplace for enterprise blockchains to team up with cloud providers; Ethereum-based Quorum's long association with Microsoft Azure is a good example.

Enterprise blockchain has continued chugging along quietly, dominated for the most part by the big three: Hyperledger, enterprise Ethereum, and the R3 Corda community.

The enterprise space appears to be pastures green as far as the EOSIO software community is concerned.

While the public EOS blockchain has been beset by governance issues, EOSIO programmers in places like Costa Rica and Argentina are focused on established businesses.

EOS Costa Rica beat off competition from the likes of Hyperledger to win a blockchain deal with global accountancy firm Grant Thornton back in May of this year.

Over the summer, LatamLink, the EOSIO Latin American contingency, fielded an audacious bid to provide blockchain support to LACChain, a blockchain framework that has the backing of the Inter-American Development Bank and a host of public and private entities across Latin America and the Caribbean.

"I'm looking forward to being an outside point-of-view for Brendan and his team while promoting a deeper understanding of the potential that blockchain offers to industries aiming to evolve their digital transformation."
