Beta Release 0.95 — we’re live!After months of hard work to get our core technology to a state where it is ready for prime time, we finally announced on the 16th of May at the London Ethereum Meetup the public version (Beta v0.95) of the Ambrosus Network (AMB-NET), and as of today the code of our Hermes nodes has been open-sourced (here’s the GitHub repo — please fork, try, comment, and send us ideas & pull requests! Bounties available for the best contributions!). For now, only our test network is made publicly accessible. We also have deployed our very own Hermes node that you can use to build any app you can think of and test it for free (literally!)
As you know, AMB-NET is an enterprise data storage system that provides a unified and scalable infrastructure to safely store and share supply chain data between actors that may not trust each other. At the heart of our solution we leverage the Blockchain technology to ensure that all data is stored in a secure and immutable manner. As we announced in our recent cryptoeconomics post, AMB-NET is powered by multiple types of masternodes owned and operated by different entities (enterprises, governments, trade bodies, and soon any whitelisted community member).
The central entity in AMB-NET are Hermes nodes which provide a REST API that allows any mobile/desktop applications (and devices!) to interact with the Ambrosus Blockchain and record/read real-time supply chain data simply through HTTP. REST APIs are particularly interesting in our context as they enable simple and quick integration with any sort of legacy system and tradition enterprise systems using bridges — which has been a vital capability required by our enterprise customers.
