MedChain, Cognition Foundry partner to enhance EMR app development

MedChain, a company focused on early stage healthcare blockchain and decentralized applications EMRs, is partnering with Cognition Foundry, an IBM business partner.

Per the partnership, MedChain will leverage the IBM LinuxONE, an enterprise Linux server built on mainframe technology.

The MedChain Network is an extensible, layered architecture and protocol system governed and secured by multiple blockchains. The network is built upon the Hyperledger Fabric permissioned blockchain, an open source project hosted by the Linux Foundation and built to run on LinuxONE. MedChain's EMR company clients can use LinuxONE to build compliant, decentralized apps.

"Incorporating Cognition Foundry's IBM LinuxONE environment into the MedChain architecture, allows a fantastic opportunity to exponentially grow Phase II of our network on top of the Phase I work of storing and managing EMR," said Steve Wishstar, chief technology officer of MedChain.
