Skyscape Cloud Services Ltd partners Credits to put the British public sector on blockchain, providing  central and local governments,  as well as health,  defence and other industries with BaaS tools.

As stated in the official press-release, the Credits platform “enables organisations to quickly and easily build robust blockchains that address the challenges of establishing provenance, authentication and reconciliation faced by many industry sectors, including central and local government as well as other public sector bodies.” To these ends, Credits provides a wide range of tools, modules and support that help customers easily develop their own applications.

The platform is interoperable with other legacy systems and blockchain providers, enabling customers to use data from various sources without potential duplication while processing high volumes “at near end real time.”

The company claims to be thrilled to response to the growing interest of UK public service companies to blockchain, partnering one of the major cloud services providers, Skyscape, to introduce their Blockchain-as-a-Service tools to central and local governments, health, education, research, police, justice and defence industries.

Skyscape is a certified Public Services Network (PSN) provider awarded aggregator status for the N3 network, offering services over other secure networks such as PNN.

“Skyscape’s industry-leading platform, unique connectivity and assurance credentials, combined with Credits’ blockchain technology create a competitive advantage for us as the first cloud provider with a blockchain offering for the UK public sector,” said the founder and CEO at Credits Nick Williamson.

The Blockchain-as-a-Service concept is becoming increasingly popular, with Microsoft Azure having built its “blockchain sandbox” to enable customers all over the world to create their own BaaS applications.
