The IBM Blockchain Platform was a short-term funding and technology project involving the Hedera blockchain network. While this specific project has evolved into an ongoing enterprise blockchain strategy, IBM remains intrinsically involved with the Hedera network as a member of the Hedera Governing Council.
This position provides IBM with a direct voice and vote in the governance of the Hedera public network, influencing its technical roadmap, policies, and overall strategic direction. As a council member, IBM also contributes to the network's operational integrity by running a consensus node.
This engagement with Hedera allows IBM to participate, offer insights and contribute to advancements which align with its broader interests in advancing enterprise-grade distributed ledger solutions (DLT). This involvement complements IBM's extensive work with permissioned blockchains and strengthens the partnership between Hedera and the broader technology industry while providing a holistic perspective on the evolving blockchain landscape for IBM’s global enterprise clients.
Hashgraph Application Studio is a specialized no-code/low-code development platform designed to build and deploy enterprise-grade decentralized applications (dApps) on the Hedera network. It is the result of a strategic partnership between Joget Inc., an open-source application development firm, and The HBAR Foundation. The studio essentially provides a Hedera-centric version of the Joget platform, aiming to democratize dApp development by making it accessible to users with limited or no coding expertise.
The platform’s core functionality revolves around a visual, drag-and-drop interface. This allows users to design application workflows, create user interfaces, and manage data without writing extensive code. A key feature is the "Hedera Ledger Pack," a pre-built integration that simplifies complex interactions with Hedera’s native services. Through simple configuration, users can perform on-chain actions such as creating accounts, transferring HBAR and HTS tokens, minting and burning NFTs, and logging data to the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS).
By abstracting the technical complexities of blockchain, the Hashgraph Application Studio significantly accelerates the development lifecycle for Hedera-based projects.
