Members of the Hong Kong-based nonprofit consortium GSBN are reported to \u201caccount for one out of every three containers handled in the world,\u201d and once the platform is fully employed, this may soon be verifiable on the blockchain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Wednesday, the GSBN, in collaboration with Oracle, Microsoft Azure, AntChain, and Alibaba Cloud, announced the introduction of a new blockchain platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the statement, \u201cas an independent consortium, it adopted a best-of-breed approach to technology to ensure the infrastructure is strong, stable, and highly scalable<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The alliances were sought for for geostrategic reasons, according to GSBN, such as Oracle's global trade operating system and Azure's service reliability in Southeast Asia. In China, Ant Group and Alibaba Cloud will be used to deploy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To secure GSBN's information control, data will be encrypted before being uploaded to the blockchain platform, ensuring that members will not be able to view the data without authorization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group also stated that blockchain technology allows them to interact with “dissimilar and frequently competing market actors.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In July, the GSBN released \u201cCargo Release,\u201d its first blockchain-based application<\/a> in China, with the goal of reducing processing time by eliminating paper and putting data on the blockchain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CMA CGM and MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company, two of the world's major container carriers, announced a full integration onto IBM and Maersk's TradeLens blockchain platform at the same time the GSBN was formed in October of last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The competing platform provides supply-chain digitization services, and the TradeLens network now contains data from roughly half of the world's maritime container shipping thanks to partnerships with CMA CGM and MSC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
