Who is Liaison?
Liaison provides integration and data management technology to more than 7,000 customers in 46 countries. The company’s flagship product is ALLOY, a cloud-based platform that gives enterprises a unified place to store, manage, and secure their most critical data.
How do Tierion and Liaison work together?
Liaison uses Tierion to secure the integrity of customer data and create an audit trail for business processes. Many Liasion customers must adhere to stringent data security regulations. ALLOY users can now leverage the blockchain to create proof of virtually any type of event or transaction, including purchases, stock trades, contract signatures and insurance claims.
“We are excited to partner with Tierion to expand the already extensive data integration, management and compliance capabilities of our next-generation Liaison ALLOY® Platform to include practical deployment options for blockchain technology to verify and share data, files, business processes and more.”

How is the blockchain used?
Tierion’s Chainpoint technology lets software developers link data to the blockchain. This process generates a Chainpoint proof, which can be used to prove the data is linked to a point on the chain— hence the name Chainpoint.
Blockchains are notoriously slow. Bitcoin can process about four transactions per second. Ethereum can process approximately fifteen transactions per second. Chainpoint overcomes these scalability limitations by linking thousands or even millions of Chainpoint proofs to a single transaction. Chainpoint transforms the blockchain into a global proof engine.
How can I learn more about Chainpoint?
If you’re a software developer, you can learn more about Chainpoint by visiting our web site or GitHub repo.

Each Chainpoint Node has a HTTP API. There’s also a Chainpoint Javascript client that can be used in browser and Node.js based applications.
