The company’s products and services are currently used by the likes of MetLife, Emirates National Bank of Dubai, Societe Generale, Bank of America Merrill Lynch and Temenos. Microsoft’s Azure cloud services is a common factor among all these companies.

MetLife and Emirates National Bank of Dubai are using Azure, its Machine Learning component and Microsoft Dynamics to improve customer experience and relationship. On the other hand, Bank of America Merrill Lynch is using the company’s Blockchain as a Service to automate various processes.

“Bank of America Merrill Lynch is working with Microsoft Treasury to use Azure Blockchain as a Service to transform and automate the processes for standby letters of credit, reducing process time from 3-5 weeks to 3-5 days, taking the error rate down to zero percent and significantly reducing the cost to pennies on the dollar.”

The use of Azure Blockchain as a Service is not limited to Bank of America. The company has already collaborated with R3 Blockchain Consortium to offer its cloud services for financial distributed ledger implementation by its partner institutions. Similarly, other companies like IBM, Red Hat and others are also heavily invested in blockchain technology making it a worthwhile investment given its future potential.
