Major IT vendors are clueless about blockchain technology
Major global IT vendors -- including leading hardware, systems software, eCommerce, big data, cloud, network, telco and systems integrator companies -- have little wisdom, advice or vision to offer their customers and prospects when it comes to blockchain technology.
This is the result of a survey entitled Searching in Vain for The Block Chain, conducted by enterprise IT specialist consulting firm Lighthouse Partners. It is also the main reason this company decided to start offering consulting services on the topic.
The company’s principal Peter Harris surveyed 100 "major global IT vendors", searching each company’s website for the term "block chain". According to Harris, 77 percent had no mention of the technology, a figure that rose to 85 percent when management consultancies and IT analysts were removed from the results.
