Digital Asset Modeling Language ("DAML") is an Open-source programming language designed for writing distributed applications. [1] It serves as a computer language that aids in modeling agreements between financial institutions and/or individuals and it runs on the leading blockchain platforms.[2][3]

History

Digital Asset Modeling Language (DAML) was developed by a technology firm called Elevence and was published by Digital Asset Holdings after it acquired Elevence in 2016.[4]

On April 4, 2019, Digital Asset Holdings released the Digital Asset Modeling Language and made it available under open source licensing.[5][6]

In same April 2019, Digital Asset collaborated with the International Swaps and Derivatives Association ("ISDA") to support the ISDA common domain model's adoption by providing DAML as a smart contract language.[7] The collaboration was aimed at producing an open source library and reference app.[7]

On April 11, 2019, Digital Asset partnered with VMware to deploy DAML in the first instance of compatibility with a third-party blockchain.[8] Digital Asset also initiated the integration of DAML into Hyperledger's Sawtooth on April 16, 2019.[9][10]This led to the first integration of DAML with one of Hyperledger consortium’s ledger platforms.[10]

Operational model

Open source

DAML runs as an open source platform that employs language-agnostic APIs and standard protocols making it easy to integrate with current technology stacks.[11]

Working procedure

DAML separates business logic from systems code, giving the user a lead way to model and execute the interactions at the heart of an enterprise.[12][13]

Usage

DAML was designed specifically for use in multi-party smart contracts. It is used for modelling multi-party business workflows on traditional databases or with enterprise-scale distributed ledger technology (DLT).[14]

DAML can be used to solve complex business problems across internal and external business endeavors.[15]

Benefits

DAML gives the user the freedom to make selections based on current needs.[16][17]

DAML gives the user the room to explore, learn and test on a small scale, and at a suitable speed.[18] Its built-in scenarios helps the user to visualize and test workflows in real time while offering instant feedback towards identifying errors and solving them.[19]

DAML powers real life business solutions across a wide range of industries such as Capital markets, Healthcare, Supply Chain, Insurance and many more.[20]
