Although blockchain technology is still in its early stages, the enterprise-level blockchain platform has already been crowded with major Internet giants such as IBM, Amazon, Tencent, Baidu, and Ali.
ChainNova, which Odaily has come into contact with recently, positions itself as a "one-stop enterprise-level blockchain technology platform and industry solution provider". According to reports, compared with many enterprise-level blockchain platforms that are still in the prototype stage, ChainNova has implemented blockchain technology in fields such as traceability, supply chain finance, logistics, shipping, and targeted poverty alleviation.
For enterprises, there are certain risks in introducing the emerging technology of blockchain. CEO Dong Ning said that many customers' requirements for enterprise-level blockchain platforms mainly include these four aspects:
First, to be able to solve the actual problems of enterprises, we cannot "blockchain for the sake of blockchain"; second, the introduction of new technologies will bring as few new problems to enterprises as possible, and many enterprises dare not promote new technologies on a large scale. Worry about unknown and uncontrollable factors; third, the new platform can be better integrated into the enterprise. In the existing IT system and business fields, good scenarios and application methods will reduce the friction of using new technologies; fourth, it can give enterprises Bring benefits, whether social or economic.
For this, ChainNova proposesProductize technical capabilities. Dong Ning said, ChainNova better integrates business demands, business models and blockchain technology, that is, commercializes technical capabilities, and then uses the product as a medium to make large-scale replication on the basis of the customer's unique industry.
For different industries and different enterprises, Dong Ning said that he can directly invoke blockchain services on ChainNova, or even invoke a complete set of solutions to achieve "out of the box".
Currently, ChainNova hasRelease the product system C4X for enterprise services, including the cloud service platform "Zhiyun Chain", the traceability platform "Zhizhen Chain", the financial platform "Zhixin Chain" and the public service platform "Zhihui Chain".
Among them, in the field of traceability of agricultural products, ChainNova, relying on the "Zhizhen Chain" platform, has a complete set of traceability solutions to realize the whole process.
According to reports, in response to the frequent counterfeiting of Beidahuang rice on the market, ChainNova uses blockchain technology to trace rice. Throughout the project, more than 10 million mu of black land, more than 30,000 farmers and more than 400,000 planting workers were involved. ChainNova puts the entire process of rice production, harvesting, processing, warehousing, logistics, and distribution on the chain.
Regarding how to ensure the authenticity of the data on the chain, Dong Ning said that IoT devices will be deployed in the field to obtain data, and there will also be a dedicated offline team to supervise.
Dong Ning said,This set of rice traceability solution has run through the entire implementation process of blockchain technology in the scenario of rice traceability.
For consumers, by scanning the QR code on the rice packaging bag, they can check the time stamp, geographical stamp, quality stamp and other information of the rice on the "Shanliang Taste" applet.
For enterprises that want to trace the origin of agricultural products, Dong Ning said that they can directly use this traceability solution.
Using blockchain technology to trace the source of rice, Odaily has also reportedAnt Financial Blockchain、ZTE Cloud Chain, the basic idea is the same. According to relevant sources, ZTE Cloud Chain has been stopped.
In addition to the traceability of agricultural products, it is reported that in terms of industrial finance, ChainNova and PeerNova, a Silicon Valley technology company in the United States, have launched a blockchain financial platform "Zhixin Chain" based on Cuneiform products. This product has been applied to the audit business of Bank of New York Mellon. Middle; in terms of shipping, ChainNova and China COSCO Shipping Group launched the "Smart Shipping Service Platform" to help solve cold chain traceability and logistics efficiency issues.
In terms of technology, ChainNova supports rapid deployment of blockchain networks, supports multiple cloud platforms and local IDC deployment, and supports multiple blockchain underlying capabilities (Hyperledger, Corda, Cuneiform).
At present, the main advantage of ChainNova is that it has already landed in many fields, explored a solution for the whole process of landing, and developed corresponding platform products. This kind of platform product similar to "model room" can reduce the use threshold and test cost of enterprises. In addition, CEO Dong Ning used to be the head of blockchain in IBM China Lab, and has some practical experience in blockchain implementation.
However, the current blockchain is still in its early stage. For the enterprise-level blockchain platform, how to find out the combination of blockchain technology and different industries, and provide more detailed services according to the actual situation of different enterprises, etc. It will take time.
ChainNova is a joint venture between Zhongnan Construction, an A-share listed company, and PeerNova, a Silicon Valley technology company in the United States. Previously, it acquired Yuntu Zhilian (Sycamore Tree), which is doing research on blockchain business models and underlying core technologies.
