HPE unveils first mission critical blockchain technology

The mission critical DLT solution is a part of HPE's overall approach to bring enterprise-grade capability to blockchain workloads.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has launched the first solution in the HPE mission critical blockchain family.

According to the company, mission critical distributed ledger technology (DLT) is a solution that enables customers to run distributed ledger workloads on the highest availability enterprise platforms.

"Enterprises interested in blockchain are realising that public cloud alone does not always meet their non-functional requirements," said Raphael Davison, worldwide director for Blockchain, HPE.

"As they look to scale, they recognise that, for mission-critical processes, on-premise infrastructure must be part of the mix of traditional IT, private and public cloud that's needed to meet the requirements of enterprise-grade blockchain workloads."

The mission critical DLT solution is a part of HPE's overall approach to bring enterprise-grade capability to blockchain workloads. The solution is offered on HPE Integrity NonStop platforms, which process two out of every three credit card transactions in the world. It was developed in partnership with enterprise software firm R3, integrating the company's distributed ledger technology with HPE's mission critical platform.
