The popularity and demand for blockchain technology especially at the enterprise level have led to the creation of several blockchain as a service provider companies and startups that offer their blockchain expertise and deploy blockchain-based systems for different enterprises. These services have shot up in demand in the recent past as building a blockchain system from scratch is both expensive and time-consuming, thus deploying an already built system helps these enterprises into a smooth transition and saves a lot of time.
