SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND APPARATUSES FOR IMPLEMENTING A DECLARATIVE AND METADATA DRIVEN BLOCKCHAIN PLATFORM USING DISTRIBUTED LEDGER TECHNOLOGY (DLT)

Systems, methods, and apparatuses for implementing a declarative and metadata driven blockchain platform using Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) in conjunction with a cloud based computing environment are described herein. For example, according to one embodiment there is a system having at least a processor and a memory therein executing within a host organization, in which such a system includes means for operating a blockchain interface to the blockchain on behalf of a plurality of tenants of the host organization, in which each one of the plurality of tenants operate as a participating node with access to the blockchain; receiving, from a user device communicably interfaced with the system, first input declaring the new application; receiving second input from the user device adding a plurality of network participants for the new application, in which the network participants are granted access rights to the new application; receiving third input from the user device declaring a plurality of entity types for the new application; receiving fourth input from the user device declaring one or more new field definitions for each of the plurality of entity types; generating a blockchain asset having encoded therein as the defined metadata for the new application, at least (i) the plurality of network participants declared, (ii) the plurality of entity types declared, and (iii) the one or more new field definitions declared for each of the plurality of entity types; and transacting the blockchain asset having the defined metadata encoded therein for the new application onto the blockchain. Other related embodiments are disclosed.
