Blockchain and IBM Watson IoT Platform can provide benefits for IoT applications by creating an immutable record of IoT data transactions. Blockchain allows any participant in a business network to see the shared transaction record. This removes costs, reduces risks, and increases trust compared to traditional centralized records systems. The IBM Watson IoT Platform can connect devices, integrate data sources, perform analytics, and manage security. It also has capabilities to add IoT data to a private blockchain ledger via APIs. This provides a tamper-resistant, transparent record of transactions. Examples of potential uses include tracking parts and shipments across supply chains, monitoring building access and systems, and trading carbon credits.
