This initiative, led by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), aims to provide Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) with a geographically distributed infrastructure.
Unlike many private blockchain platforms, Vishvasya is backed by the Indian government and hosted across multiple NIC Data Centers, ensuring robust infrastructure and security.
Key features of the Vishvasya stack include:
NBFLite: A lightweight blockchain platform for rapid prototyping, research, and learning. It is developed especially for startups/academia for rapid prototyping of applications, carrying out research and capacity building. These technologies have been developed by collaborating efforts of C-DAC, NIC, IDRBT Hyderabad, IIT Hyderabad, IIIT Hyderabad and SETS Chennai under the MeitY support.
Praamaanik: A blockchain-enabled solution for verifying the authenticity of mobile apps. Praamaanik aims to address issues related to app authenticity, helping users and developers ensure that the apps they use or distribute are genuine and have not been tampered with.
Geographically distributed infrastructure: : The stack is hosted across NIC Data Centers in Bhubaneswar, Pune, and Hyderabad, ensuring robust and scalable service delivery.
This framework is expected to support various permissioned blockchain applications, enhancing security, transparency, and efficiency in digital service delivery.
