Microsoft has launched a new blockchain cloud computing service for developers. Called Azure Blockchain Development Kit, the new toolkit is meant to help enterprise application development teams create end-to-end blockchain applications.
“The Azure Blockchain Development Kit is the next step in our journey to make developing end to end blockchain applications accessible, fast, and affordable to anyone with an idea. It is built atop our investments in blockchain and connects to the compute, data, messaging, and integration services available in both Azure and the broader Microsoft Cloud to provide a robust palette for a developer to realize their vision,” blogged Marc Mercuri, Microsoft’s principal program manager for blockchain engineering.
