"You can use it to create scalable blockchain networks that use the Hyperledger Fabric open source framework, with Ethereum in the works," Barr said in a blog post today. "You can create your network in minutes. Once created, you can easily manage and maintain your blockchain network. You can manage certificates, invite new members, and scale out peer node capacity in order to process transactions more quickly."
Amazon Web Services (AWS) has joined a list of BaaS providers that already includes IBM, HP, Microsoft, Oracle and SAP.
