Distributed technology models challenge existing structures

Distributed ledger technologies (DLT) such as blockchain introduce a new architectural approach using distributed networks and cryptography. The question remains whether this technology is strong enough to disrupt established models. However, the real opportunity could lie in developing economies where traditional models aren’t cemented. 2019 may see increased activity in this area but there may also be a backlash to the original hype around DLT.

Overall, it’s a matter of when, not if, blockchain reaches critical mass in the market, executives said. During this maturation phase, it’s important for solution providers to learn the subject matter and start conversations with customers in order to establish themselves at thought leaders now, according to Annette Taber, CompTIA’s vice president of industry outreach.

“Blockchain will change the way we do business—and what we expect from business,” Taber said. “The CompTIA Blockchain Advisory Council is tasked with raising awareness of this important technology and providing solution providers with the information and tools necessary to prepare their businesses for blockchain. They may not start selling blockchain today, or tomorrow, but it’s going to be a part of their future.”
