Google has officially announced its partnerships with two startups working with distributed ledger technology (DLT) in its efforts to bring the technology to its cloud platform.

In an announcement dated July 23, Google said that customers would now be able to explore how they can leverage DLT on its cloud platform with launch partners – Digital Asset and BlockApps.

“Customers can now explore ways they might use distributed ledger technology (DLT) frameworks on GCP [Google Cloud Platform] with launch partners including Digital Asset and BlockApps, and try open-source integrations for Hyperledger Fabric and Ethereum later this year in our GCP Marketplace,” Google said.

In its official release, Digital Asset said that it will bring its blockchain solutions and developer tools to Google Cloud through this partnership. Blythe Masters, CEO of Digital Asset, said that the partnership with Google Cloud will provide developers with a full stack solution, enabling them to unlock the potential for web-paced innovation in blockchain.

“This will reduce the technical barriers to DLT application development by delivering our advanced distributed ledger platform and modelling language to Google Cloud,” she added.

BlockApps said that it will offer BlockApps STRATO, a rapid-deployment Blockchain-as-a-Service solution platform for enterprises on the cloud platform. With more and more adoption of GCP, the startup said that its platform will enable more enterprises to test and implement blockchain application solutions across any business sector.
