Microsoft has announced that Project Bletchley is now available, making the Ethereum-based consortium blockchain technology open for use by developers. Consortium blockchains are designed to be public, restricted or partially decentralised and use a consensus process managed by a pre-selected set of nodes. Bletchley 15 allows developers to become familiar with the consortium blockchain process and greatly reduces the time needed to set up a network. The technology will be integrated with Microsoft’s Azure-based Blockchain as a Service (BaaS).
