Logistics blockchain platform

2. In many cases of blockchain commercial application, we can always see the word baas. Baas is the abbreviation of blockchain as a service, which is translated into "blockchain as a service" in Chinese. So what is blockchain as a service baas? With this question, we will follow Xiao Wang of Renren blockchain technology team to discuss it carefully
according to Xiao Wang, the concept of blockchain as a service (baas) is mainly proposed by Microsoft and IBM. To put it bluntly, it is actually a new type of cloud service, a cloud service combined with blockchain technology. For example, Microsoft's azure cloud computing platform and IBM's bluemix garage cloud platform all provide blockchain as a service baas
blockchain as a service (baas) is a space created by enterprises such as Microsoft and IBM from their own cloud service network to run a blockchain node. Compared with ordinary nodes and exchange nodes, the main purpose of baas nodes is to quickly establish the development environment they need, and provide a series of operation services based on blockchain, such as search query, transaction submission, data analysis, etc. these services can be centralized or decentralized to help developers verify their concepts and models faster. The service of baas node is reflected in: it is more instrumental and easy to create, deploy, run and monitor blockchain.

Blockchain platforms include Ethereum, Asch and other underlying application development platforms

Ethereum, an open source public blockchain platform with smart contract function, provides decentralized Ethereum virtual machine to process point-to-point contract through its special cryptocurrency ether (ETH)

arch, a decentralized application platform based on side chain technology. Asch is designed to lower the threshold of developers, such as using JavaScript as the application programming language and supporting relational database to store transaction data, which is believed to be very attractive to developers and small and medium-sized enterprises

extended data

in 2008, Nakamoto first proposed the concept of blockchain. In the following years, blockchain has become the core component of electronic currency bitcoin: public account book for all transactions

by using peer-to-peer network and distributed timestamp server, the blockchain database can be managed independently. The blockchain invented for bitcoin makes it the first digital currency to solve the problem of repeated consumption. Bitcoin's design is a source of inspiration for other applications

bitcoin is the absolute mainstream of digital currency, and digital currency is in full bloom. Bitcoin, litecoin, dogecoin, dashcoin are common. In addition to currency application, there are various derivative applications, such as Ethereum, Asch and other underlying application development platforms, as well as NXT, SIA, bitstocks, maidsafe, ripple and other instrial applications

in the express logistics instry, there are blockchain companies in China, such as Walton chain

last year, Walton chain and cargo bag (Xiamen) Technology Co., Ltd. reached a strategic cooperation to help them improve their logistics solutions through the "RFID + blockchain" technical solution of Walton chain, and link the data of cargo bag in all aspects of its logistics turnover, such as the layout of the read-write system of key nodes such as in and out of warehouse, receiving and taking goods, when the objects pass any link, All the data can be read by RFID reader, and the corresponding behavior can be transformed into data, which can be uploaded to the blockchain. Users can trace the whole process of logistics with one click

the four business scenarios that can be implemented in the real environment are suitable for the application of blockchain technology

Scene 1: Express insurance

around the insurance scene, express companies carry out commodity transportation, insurance companies provide commodity insurance, merchants provide commodity sales, sellers purchase insurance services, and the government carries out instry supervision

then, what should be recorded on the blockchain? There are several key points, such as the logistics details, accounts, identities, claims and other reference data of commodities are recorded on the blockchain

insurance is the concept of contract. When the customer signs for the package normally, the account claims will be automatically triggered, the contract will end normally, and the premium will be automatically cleared. If there is a problem or lost part, the insurance company's claim process will be triggered

Scene 2: public express

for public welfare activities, such as "one cent" activities, one cent of the cost of each public parcel is donated to the account of public welfare organizations. In this scenario, the express company still undertakes the transportation of goods, the public welfare organizations provide the implementation of public welfare activities, and the poverty alleviation businesses provide the sales of public welfare poverty alleviation goods

then what is recorded in the blockchain is the logistics details of the goods. After the package is signed, it will be recorded on the blockchain and automatically trigger the transfer from the public welfare account of the logistics company to the account of the public welfare organization. When the public welfare activities are over, the whole process is open and transparent, avoiding the public's distrust of social public welfare activities

Scene 3: share the instry blacklist

the blacklist of express delivery practitioners is still dominated by offline mode at present. We hope that through the blockchain technology, each company can record the blacklist of employees on the blockchain, and other companies can also query, and the data can not be modified, and can be traced back to the information such as which company this person did what kind of inappropriate behavior

Scene 4: Supervision of security incidents in postal delivery channels

many express companies will install security inspection machines, and the government also wants to know whether each logistics company has any potential transportation security incidents. Through the mode of Distributed Accounting, each express company can record the effective information of the security event on the blockchain when there is a security event, so that the regulatory authorities can monitor in real time and can not tamper with it

5. If we look at the blockchain from the perspective of logistics, the most intuitive part should be the transparent management part, which is reflected in two simple aspects: one is the data on the chain, the other is the real traceability

logistics informatization has been stagnant, in addition to the lack of information technology in the logistics instry itself, the most important thing is that the information data is inaccurate, untrue and not timely. The application of blockchain technology in data right confirmation should be very smooth. Only the data needs to be linked, the uniqueness of the data can be verified and the data can not be tampered with. The true reflection of data can be most directly reflected in the supply chain finance, which can play a rapid role in promoting business operations such as risk assessment and pledge dection. On the other hand, in logistics, high value-added procts have a strong demand for traceability. Traceability requires authenticity and reliability, and records can not be tampered with. The application of blockchain can be well reflected here.

6. Logistics instry is very suitable for the application of blockchain technology< In fact, logistics ecosystem is a community of interests composed of multiple participants. There is a concept of "flow" in the instry. Starting from the initial "business flow", it graally gave birth to "logistics", as well as the corresponding support of "capital flow" and "information flow"

there is a key problem behind the emergence of various "flows", that is, the transfer of commodity ownership. Many types of problems solved by blockchain technology are related to trust friction in the process of asset ownership transfer. Therefore, it can be concluded that the business scenario of multi flow integration in express logistics instry is very suitable for blockchain technology to play its value and effect. The application of blockchain technology can significantly improve the processing speed and efficiency of settlement business in express logistics instry, effectively solve the problem of traceability and anti-counterfeiting, and fully ensure the information security and the privacy of the sender and recipient. Next, I list four types of business scenarios suitable for the express logistics instry of blockchain technology

1) high value market. After digitizing high-value commodities, they are recorded on the blockchain to maintain asset ownership< 2) asset ownership transaction. After the assets are digitized, they are recorded on the blockchain for the record management of the asset transaction process

3) shared data scenario. Participants sharing data in the instry record these shared data in the form of blockchain ledger

4) compliance audit. The blockchain records the transactions within and between enterprises with non tamperable and traceable data. The compliance audit requires the input of these high-quality data, so it can be more rapid and efficient in technology

7. The most important thing of logistics is the waybill. For the logistics waybill on the chain, the information of each stage is encrypted in real time, signed and registered on the chain, supplemented by the third party signature, which can not be tampered with and is safe. Only the holder of data or the authorized person of data access can decrypt the data on the chain to ensure information security and privacy. Cooperate with the flow data on the chain and the data source of the trusted organization under the chain, realize the trusted verification of the data on the chain, and ensure the authenticity of the logistics and capital flow in the transportation process. Therefore, after ant chain joins the logistics platform, it will fundamentally change the channel of verifying the authenticity of logistics practitioners' business behavior.

8. At first glance, blockchain digital logistics is really confusing. In fact, the simple explanation is that after ant blockchain technology has granted support to the logistics platform, it has opened up the information system of the network freight platform, which can provide bank level account system and financial level identity verification. These, of course, are based on the natural characteristics of ant blockchain technology, which ensures the smooth and tamper proof of freight trajectory! Through digital logistics, it fundamentally changes the way of verifying the authenticity of logistics practitioners' business behavior, and improves the credit value. Finally, with enough credit, we can get more financial help!
