Going Global with Blockchain...
Blockchain Strategy Lead for UKI Enterprise @ Dell Technologies | Enterprise Digital Strategy | Emerging Tech
区块链是一个不断增长的主题，被视为一种新兴技术，将彻底改变我们未来与企业互动的方式。我们看到很多高层管理人员自上而下的兴趣正在评估这项技术如何在整个价值链中实现业务成果和推动价值。
根据普华永道的统计，84％的全球高管表示他们的组织正在开发和测试区块链用例，但是，许多人报告说，在全球范围内扩展这些用例的应用存在挑战。
区块链有可能降低运营效率低下，提高透明度，增强客户参与度并推动收入增长。在戴尔技术公司，我们希望通过提供区块链解决方案来帮助我们的客户实现这些优势，这些解决方案有助于实现全球可扩展性，高性能和安全性。
大型企业只是在挖掘区块链的表面，尚未充分发挥其潜力。
采用区块链技术时，大型组织面临重大挑战。企业受到性能，可扩展性，集成，可审计性和安全性的限制。这些挑战阻碍了企业扩展到试点阶段。
我们一直致力于戴尔科技的工作
在戴尔技术公司，我们一直致力于开发高性能解决方案，使大型企业能够在全球范围内扩展。我们一直在积极投资推进戴尔技术区块链解决方案，以开发以下领域的功能：
1.高性能，
2.全球可扩展性，
3.多分类集成，
4.审计管理工具，
5.安全和风险降低
过去三年，戴尔科技在新兴技术研究和创新方面投入了超过127亿美元。对我们来说，Blockchain是我们关注的相关新兴技术。
我们的目标是为大型组织提供最安全，可靠，可扩展的区块链平台。
近期发展
1.面向大型组织的全球可扩展性解决方案
我们希望帮助客户快速从试点转向生产。该解决方案可帮助大型组织实现全球可扩展性，使他们可以自由地在整个组织中采用区块链技术。
我们怎么做？
我们最近宣布了我们的解决方案，为具有区块链用例的大型组织提供全局可扩展性。
在过去两年中，我们开发了Concord分散式信任基础架构解决方案。这是一种开源，节能，可扩展的解决方案，可帮助全球组织扩展其用例。
该解决方案基于戴尔技术共识引擎SBFT（可扩展的拜占庭容错）。SBFT使用非常低资源密集型的一致性算法，可实现更好的性能和全球规模。
2.多分类帐将现有应用程序和数据与区块链集成
我们帮助客户将数据无缝集成到区块链中，实现跨多个分类账的无摩擦数据可移植性。
我们是怎么做到的？
由于在全球组织中有如此多的不同数据资产和应用程序，实施区块链等新技术非常复杂 - 对于使用多个分布式分类帐技术在合作伙伴，客户和供应商生态系统中开发用例的组织来说，这将继续成为一个日益严峻的挑战。这方面的一个例子是利用物联网技术的供应链“跟踪和追踪”用例。在这种情况下，资产的集成和可移植性是组织范围内采用区块链技术的关键。
我们的资产整合和可移植性平台有助于简化数据捕获 - 使组织能够跨现有平台和应用程序将数据传输到智能合约和多个区块链中。
戴尔技术区块链解决方案的未来
我们的愿景是构建一个专注于全球组织的端到端解决方案组合。这包括具有审计和合规性功能的管理工具以及具有嵌入式安全功能的平台解决方案。
可持续发展是我们工作的核心，我们的戴尔技术区块链解决方案非常注重提高能效。您可以在此处找到有关我们可持续性承诺的更多信
我们正在与合作伙伴合作，为我们的客户提供战略建议，使他们能够采用区块链技术来增强他们的业务模式。
我们坚定不移地致力于投资新兴技术，包括区块链，物联网和人工智能，以帮助推动人类进步。
我们的开源区块链可扩展性项目可通过Git-Hub：Project Concord获得。
此博客是Dell Technologies Blockchain解决方案系列的一部分。我们将分享更多有关我们的解决方案如何帮助大型组织实现业务价值的见解。
在我们的下一次更新中 - 我们将讨论如何使我们的大客户能够扩展跟踪和跟踪用例。

Blockchain is a topic that has been on the rise and is seen as an emerging technology that will revolutionise the way we interact with businesses in future. We see a lot of the interest driven top down from senior executives are evaluating how this technology can deliver business outcomes and drive value across the value chain.
According to PwC, 84% of global executives say their organisation is developing and testing blockchain use cases, however, many report challenges in expanding the application of these use cases on a global level.
Blockchain has the potential to reduce operational inefficiencies, improve transparency, enhance customer engagement and drive revenue growth. At Dell Technologies we want to help our clients realise these benefits by providing blockchain solutions that lend themselves to enabling global scalability, high performance and security.
Large businesses are only scraping the surface of blockchain and have yet to realise its full potential.
There are significant challenges for large organisations when adopting blockchain technology. Businesses are constrained by performance, scalability, integration, auditability and security. These challenges inhibit businesses from expanding beyond pilot stages.
What we have been working on at Dell Technologies
At Dell Technologies we have been focusing on developing high performance solutions that can allow large organisations to scale globally. We have been actively investing in advancing our Dell Technologies blockchain solution to develop capabilities in the following areas:
1. High Performance,
2. Global Scalability,
3. Multi-Ledger Integration,
4. Management Tools for Auditing,
5. Security and Risk Reduction
Dell Technologies has invested over $12.7 billion in emerging technology research and innovation over the past three years. For us, Blockchain is a relevant emerging technology that we are focusing on.
Our aim is to provide the most secure, reliable, and scalable blockchain platform for large organisations.
Recent Developments
1. Global scalability solutions for large organisations
We want to help our clients move from pilot to production, quickly. This solution helps large organisations achieve global scalability giving them the freedom to adopt blockchain technology across the organisation.
How are we doing this?
We recently announced our solution that provides global scalability for large organisations with blockchain use cases.
Over the past two years we have developed our Concord decentralised trust infrastructures solution. This is an open-source, energy efficient, scalability solution that helps global organisations scale their use cases.
The solution is based on Dell Technologies consensus engine SBFT (scalable byzantine fault tolerance). SBFT uses very low resource-intensive consensus algorithms allowing for better performance and global scale.
2. Multi-ledger integration your existing applications and data with the Blockchain
We help our clients seamlessly integrate data into the blockchain and achieve frictionless data portability across multiple ledgers.
How we are doing this?
With so many different data assets and applications within global organisations, implementing new technologies like blockchain is complex – this will continue to be a growing challenge for organisations developing use cases across partner, customer and vendor ecosystems with multiple distributed-ledger Technologies. One example of this is within supply chain ‘track & trace’ use cases that leverage Internet-of-Things technology. In this case, integration and portability of assets is key to enabling organisation-wide adoption of blockchain technology.
Our asset integration & portability platform helps simplify data capture - enabling organisations to transfer data across existing platforms and applications into smart contracts and across multiple blockchains.
The Future of Dell Technologies Blockchain Solution
Our vision is to build an end-to-end portfolio of solutions that are focused on global organisation. This includes management tools that have audit and compliance capabilities as well as platform solutions with embedded security capabilities.
Sustainability is at the heart of what we do, and our Dell Technologies Blockchain solutions focus heavily on driving energy-efficiency. You can find more information on our sustainability commitment here.
We are working with our partners to provide strategic advice to our clients and enable them to adopt blockchain technology to enhance their business models.
We have an unwavering commitment to invest in emerging technologies including Blockchain, Internet-of-Things and Artificial Intelligence to help drive human progress.
Our open-source blockchain scalability project is available over Git-Hub: Project Concord.
This blog is part of series on Dell Technologies Blockchain solution. We will be sharing some more insights on how our solutions help large organisations realise business value.
In our next update – we will discuss how we have enabled one of our large clients to scale a track and trace use case.
