Today, AWS Marketplace announced it’s making the Chainlink data standard available to millions of developers and hundreds of thousands of businesses that require secure data infrastructure to build institutional-grade blockchain applications.
Chainlink Data Feeds, Data Streams, and Proof of Reserve now integrate with AWS. By securely connecting onchain smart contracts to offchain systems including AWS services, traditional APIs, identity systems, existing enterprise infrastructure, and other blockchains, Chainlink allows developers to build blockchain applications that leverage both AWS and Chainlink capabilities to interact with tokenized assets and smart contracts.
Chainlink Data Feeds have reliably enabled over $29 trillion in transaction value even during volatile market conditions and adverse events. Data Streams, Chainlink’s pull-based oracle solution, allows protocols to consume data more cost-effectively and at lower latencies while reducing the risk of frontrunning and MEV. This unlocks advanced use cases including perpetual futures, options, and other high-performance markets onchain.
Proof of Reserve provides real-time updates for reserves backing tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) and stablecoins with superior transparency and reliability compared to annual statutory audits, interim audits, and monthly proof of reserves. Proof of Reserve can also be used to automate key protocol functions, such as secure token minting, and enables disclosure and auditability for onchain assets without publicly exposing sensitive information.
With the RWA industry projected to reach $30 trillion by 2030, a growing number of traditional financial institutions are pursuing tokenization. RWAs offer numerous benefits including atomic settlement, fractionalization, programmability, composability, and better capital efficiency, making them an increasingly attractive asset class.
The combination of AWS’ compute, storage, and comprehensive suite of cloud services with Chainlink’s industry-standard decentralized oracle infrastructure paves the way for innovative tokenization solutions that meet regulatory requirements while maintaining the high-level security institutions demand.
