Lightning Blockchain Enterprise – Critical Capabilities
New Levels of NoSQL Data Security NoSQL datastore extensions to the blockchain data structure include documents, digital assets and other sensitive data structures. These require a highly secure data object architecture structure which is absent from existing open source NoSQL solutions.
Enterprise Wallet Corporate users of Bitcoin and other digital assets require flexible and configurable hierarchical wallets to provide appropriate levels of control of digit assets across the organization. Existing hierarchical and multi-user wallets fall short of the requirements for real corporate use.
Blockchain Application Programming InterfaceCorporations developing blockchain applications require rapid application development tools that are familiar to and can be easily used by in-house developers and ISVs.
Full Integration of Blockchain’s NoSQL Data with Enterprise Relational DataEnterprise customers require the ability to access and utilize Blockchain NoSQL data with the same tools, integration levels and ease as enterprise relational data.
Cloud Performance & ScalabilityVery few cloud platforms meet the requirements of large global enterprises. Enterprises require a trusted vendor with a flexible, secure, scalable global platform that supports both on-premise and cloud deployments. It is vitally important that the platform supports the full application life cycle from R&D through final deployment.
An Enterprise Blockchain software architecture requires the following critical capabilities:
