Dragonchain and Sirqul Announce Strategic Alliance to Revolutionize IoT with Blockchain

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, UNITED STATES, May 15, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ — Drag­on­chain, an enter­prise solu­tion blockchain plat­form has announced its Strate­gic Alliance Part­ner­ship with IoT plat­form provider Sirqul. By col­lab­o­rat­ing with Drag­on­chain, Sirqul enhances its IoT plat­form capa­bil­i­ties by uti­liz­ing Dragonchain’s unique hybrid private/public blockchain, cre­at­ing a vir­tu­al incor­rupt­ible dig­i­tal ledger. Like­wise, Drag­on­chain will add Sirqul’s solu­tions, loca­tion-based IoT hard­ware, and soft­ware appli­ca­tion tem­plates to Dragonchain’s mar­ket­place.

With Gart­ner pro­ject­ing 20.4 bil­lion IoT devices by 2020, blockchain will be essen­tial in build­ing trust, reduc­ing costs, accel­er­at­ing data exchanges, and scal­ing secu­ri­ty. Deploy­ments of IoT devices can be com­plex, but a dis­trib­ut­ed ledger can eas­i­ly ver­i­fy iden­ti­ty, ensure data integri­ty, and seam­less­ly trans­fer data and/or cur­ren­cy.

“We are excit­ed to part­ner with Sirqul to provide inter­op­er­a­ble and future-proof Inter­net of Things (IoT) capa­bil­i­ties for users of the Drag­on­chain plat­form,” said Joe Roets, CEO of Drag­on­chain. “With Sirqul IoT hard­ware, soft­ware, and ser­vices avail­able in our mar­ket­place, a world-class ecosys­tem is cre­at­ed for cer­ti­fied devel­op­ers, mar­ket­ing, and oth­er busi­ness ven­dors.”

Dragonchain’s founder and CEO, Joe Roets, has con­tribut­ed to blockchain and cryp­tocur­ren­cy projects since 2010, includ­ing at Over­stock™, Coin­base, Sym­biont, and the Walt Dis­ney Com­pa­ny where he worked with Eileen Quen­in, cur­rent VP Strate­gic Part­ner­ships at Drag­on­chain, who has pri­or expe­ri­ence includ­ing GE Health­care, Amazon.com and Lex­is­Nex­is®. In 2014, Disney’s Seat­tle tech­nol­o­gy team set out to devel­op a blockchain pro­to­col with the goal of ensur­ing greater data pri­va­cy than oth­er enter­prise-ori­ent­ed blockchains. In 2016, Dis­ney made the project open source. No longer affil­i­at­ed with Dis­ney, Roets and Quen­in lead Drag­on­chain in its expan­sion of what is now known as the Drag­on­chain blockchain plat­form into a vari­ety of com­mer­cial appli­ca­tions.

“Secu­ri­ty breach­es remain a top con­cern among stake­hold­ers respon­si­ble for IoT imple­men­ta­tions,” said Robert Fred­er­ick, founder and CEO of Sirqul. “Togeth­er with Drag­on­chain we are enabling IoT solu­tion providers and blockchain devel­op­ers to rapid­ly cre­ate and deliv­er smart, secure appli­ca­tions that are scal­able and best of breed.”

Robert Fred­er­ick, founder and CEO of Sirqul, has been focused on con­nect­ed com­mu­ni­ties, devices, peo­ple, and busi­ness­es for over 23 years. Fred­er­ick is an MIT Tech­nol­o­gy Review Mag­a­zine TR 100 award win­ner, author of 33 patents, and tech­ni­cal co-founder of Ama­zon Any­where and Ama­zon Web Ser­vices (AWS).

With a strong engi­neer­ing lin­eage of dis­rupt­ing tra­di­tion­al soft­ware busi­ness mod­els, Sirqul’s full stack IoT plat­form is poised to have a pro­found impact with new blockchain-based IOT solu­tions that help sim­pli­fy busi­ness process­es, improve cus­tomer expe­ri­ences, and achieve sig­nif­i­cant cost effi­cien­cies.

Sirqul’s IoT Suite of Solu­tions:

- Sirqul Engage­ment-as-a-Ser­vice IoT Plat­form: (https://corp.sirqul.com/iot-solutions/eaas) Built upon decades of thought to cre­ate a con­nect­ed world, Sirqul’s IoT EaaS plat­form removes the com­plex­i­ty and enables the rapid deploy­ment of inter­op­er­a­ble IoT ecosys­tems based upon plug-and-play APIs, toolk­its, and starter projects.

- Route-N-Roll: Opti­mizes fleets with advanced rout­ing and telem­at­ics.

- Aileen: Enables retail pres­ence-based solu­tions for track­ing cus­tomer and employ­ee behav­iors along their jour­neys from the time that they enter the store until they exit the store.

- Ein­stein: Turns sport­ing (sta­di­ums) and enter­tain­ment venues (resorts, casi­nos, are­nas) into inter­ac­tive, recur­ring rev­enue gen­er­a­tors that can be mea­sured by impact in dol­lars per fan/visitor and/or per square foot.

- Elexi: Auto­mates build­ings, offices, con­dos, and homes to cre­ate con­nect­ed com­mu­ni­ties.
