Omnitude will benefit from access to Hyperledger’s resources, tools and relationships to help it as it builds its middleware ecosystem. Hyperledger is building an open-source cross-industry standard for distributed ledgers and currently consists of more than 235 member organisations including leaders in healthcare, finance, banking, IoT, supply chain, manufacturing and technology.
Brian Behlendorf, Executive Director, Hyperledger said: “Hyperledger’s success is reflected by the strength and depth of its growing community. Omnitude already has an impressive roster of clients and partners, which will all benefit from the collaborative efforts of the Hyperledger community.
Hyperledger’s growth reflects a global awakening to the potential positive impact of blockchain for businesses. Our members are building new applications and frameworks that will drive value and opportunity. We're excited to now have Omnitude a part of the community.”
Chris Painter, CEO of Omnitude said: “Omnitude is a broad middleware layer that will drive mainstream adoption of blockchain in business. Rather than focusing on an end-to-end vertical integration of blockchain solutions, Omnitude is able to slot into existing ecosystems in businesses to enable them to benefit from additional layers of security and trust.
“By joining Hyperledger, we join a growing, vibrant community of blockchain advocates that will help us develop our technology and bring blockchain to businesses everywhere. We’re excited to be part of such a diverse and distinguished membership.”
