Drilling down on the Daml open-source project using the DLT Landscape

Barcelona, Spain — 21 April 2021Blockchain Technology Partners (BTP), a leading enterprise blockchain company, today announced the launch of the DLT Landscape, an open-source market segmentation initiative for the enterprise blockchain and distributed ledger technology community.

The creation of the DLT Landscape was inspired by the growing complexity of the evolving enterprise blockchain market, in particular, the increasing number of projects and companies innovating in areas outside of the core distributed ledger layer, which has considerably transformed the vendor landscape in the last few years.

“The DLT Landscape is a living market landscape with a technology foundation, designed to provide a common language and be used as a strategic tool,” said Csilla Zsigri, VP of Marketing & Strategy at BTP. “We look forward to seeing it grow and evolve and we are keen for the community to contribute to it.”

The DLT Landscape is modelled after the CNCF Landscape and is based on the same open-source code. Although created by BTP, the DLT Landscape is independent of the company. Until it finds a permanent home, BTP is happy to host it and curate it, and invite the whole DLT community to help shape it.

“In the cloud native community we have found the cloud native landscape to be instrumental in distilling a complex space in a more approachable and automated manner that is powered by open source community contributions to benefit all,” said Chris Aniszczyk, CTO at CNCF. “We are thrilled to see the DLT Landscape launch for the enterprise blockchain community taking advantage of the same technology and look forward to seeing how their community shapes their open source landscape.”

The DLT Landscape was unveiled earlier today at Fintech Week Tel Aviv where it featured in a Fireside Chat with Aly Madhavji, Managing Partner at the Blockchain Founders Fund.

“Given the complexity of the blockchain space, this initiative is very timely,” said Aly Madhavji, Managing Partner at Blockchain Founders Fund. “It is extremely well thought out and will be an invaluable tool for investors, technologists and users alike.”
