Ardor...New Business Blockchain Giant?

in blockchain •  7 years ago 

Ardor is the first scalable blockchain as-a-service platform for business.

I'm trying to understand two things:

  1. is that statement even remotely true?
  2. Is that statement even remotely meaningful?

I don't really get the parent/child chain thing. The Nxt people have always seemed to focus on weirdly specific things, like how they would get very serious about the distinction between Monetary System and Asset Exchange in the old Nxt system.

I've seen nothing about Ardor that makes me think it would be a good place to launch a child chain, unless there's some customizability about their child chains that I just don't understand.

Yes, i did fail to fully explain the parent and child chain tech, the child chains are fully customizable for the business developing it for their use. The idea behind Ardor is blockchain tech being interrogated into everyday businesses and their fiscal needs.

But what does "fully customizable" mean? Programmable smart contracts? From the marketing materials, it looks like there's a fixed set of hard-coded features you can enable in each child chain, which feels like a far cry from a true customizable chain.

Check out their website for a more in depth review of their services, I was just more informing people of Ardor than trying to fully explain their service, thanks for the reply tho!
