VeChain Launches Revolutionary One-stop BaaS Platform--VeChain ToolChain

SHANGHAI, April 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- With the advancement of 5G, IoT (The Internet of Things), AI (Artificial Intelligence), and the Internet of Value, data is set to play a more significant role in the future business world. For enterprises to realize the value of data, blockchain technology will be vital. The disruption of existing business models is on the horizon, which will compel businesses to embrace new technologies like blockchain, enabling them to stay ahead of the market.

However, there are obstacles in feasibly employing blockchain technology into business models, especially for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). This failure is typically caused by one of three things (or all):

• High cost
• Complexity
• Lacking professionals or technical capabilities to implement the solution

Breaking Down the Barriers—VeChain Develops and Launches ToolChain so that Anyone Can Implement and Use Blockchain Technology
VeChain officially launched ToolChain, the next generation of blockchain-as-a-service (BaaS) platform at the 2019 VeChain Summit—the first global developer conference of VeChain, held on April 18th at San Francisco's historic Fort Mason Festival Pavilion. It is the first commercial BaaS platform built on top of a public blockchain.

VeChain Toolchain Turnkey Solution with hardware suggestions

ToolChain Addresses Pain Points for SMEs
VeChain ToolChain provides a variety of general interfaces to essentially eliminate the high technical threshold and substantially lower the costs for SMEs or even individuals in blockchain integration. VeChain ToolChain pioneered the concept of providing an "off-the-shelf" solution, with various standardized application modules.

Unlike the BaaS products on the market, ToolChain also includes a vertical blockchain application focusing on product life cycle management, which can be used as a SaaS solution or customized as a turnkey package. The solution can integrate with the existing business of the enterprises immediately with zero development requirements. In this way, companies without blockchain development capabilities can acquire a secure and mature blockchain solution at a reasonable cost. More importantly, eco-enterprises and channel partners are allowed to build their own applications on the VeChainThor blockchain BaaS platform, should they be authorized with the turnkey solution provided by VeChain.

SMEs can further benefit from a comprehensive one-stop customized blockchain service, including product life-cycle management, supply chain management, data storage, data verification, and process verification, thereby improving their brand image and scaling their businesses.

Meeting the Demands of the Market: ToolChain Releases with Three Versions
To meet the diverse demands of the market, VeChain ToolChain solution is currently available in three versions: Standard Version, Developer Version, and Channel Partner Version:

• Standard Version

The VeChain ToolChain Standard Version provides various standardized application modules, tools and IoT devices. This allows SMEs with no development capability to have their own blockchain-based lifecycle management solution.

• Developer Version

For enterprise customers with strong technical capabilities, the developer version can provide a variety of API interfaces, SDK development kits, and detailed developer documentation. With these, enterprises can develop various applications based on the VeChainThor Blockchain according to their own needs and desired hardware solutions.

• Channel Partner Version

The newly developed Channel Partner Version will support independent deployment and multi-dimensional customization of ToolChain based on the channel partner's business strength. To become a channel partner, you only need to apply for authorization from VeChain before receiving the ToolChain Turnkey packages for customization and independent deployment. This version creates a win-win situation by allowing VeChain's partners to build their own blockchain-based business ecology to serve their customers.
