DLT has great potential to benefit customers not just in the financial services industry, but across many industries, and we’re excited to bring these developer tools to Google Cloud.”

The BlockApps partnership also involves BlockApps STRATO, a Blockchain-as-a-Service solution platform that is based on the Ethereum protocol, offers API integration, configurable consensus algorithms and the ability to query and report on blockchain data using a traditional SQL database.

Google joining the race

With these new partnerships, Google has finally joined the league of huge companies that are offering Blockchain-as-a-service offerings.
