- All the transactions in blockchain are preapproved and validated, process is automated. Also data on past transactions cannot be erased or changed, it can be added only. All the blockchain data are public and accessible to all blocks in the ledger.
- Normal database requires a central control and as such is in risk of manipulation. The data on all past transactions can also be limited.
- All the transactions are always there, completed and readily available for a review. This can simplify the events such as audits. Also this could make supply chains much more transparent in the future because data on material flow would be readily available to all participants in the process.

1. How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
Blockchain is decentralized, there’s no central authority that can control it. It’s also immutable, therefore records of data cannot be erased once created. It is also public meaning that anyone can check data and perform audit.
2. Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
Normal database allows CRUD operations, meaning it also supports deletion and update. It is also not decentralized and there is usually some authority that can control it.
3. Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
Digital provenance provides businesses with better control of their supply chains, enables traceability by allowing interested parties to perform real time audits on stored data

1.The blockchain is immutable due to which blockchain cannot be tampered or changed until validation of a new block . Also the data is public and accessible to everyone.
2.Normal Database has a centralised control due to which there may be a chance of tampering or manipulation of data, arising a fear of trustlessness.
3. Transparent, immutable and reliable gives it advantage over many age old traditional methods.

- Every transaction is tracked and traced, all data stays on the block chain but cant be removed
- Because a database is based on trust where the block chain is trust less giving you an opportunity to verify yourself
- Because the block chain is open source the business knows exactly what is going on, there is no middlemen

- I believe it is because the blockchian is traceable
- A normal database is not a public ledger like blockchain and it needs to get a trust or verification for other parties’ transaction
- Because the Blockchain’s provenance does not need trust any parties so it can be more real time and more trustful…

- Through a network of computers which all have a copy of the same digital ledger allowing for trust less verification of details for a financial transaction, food origin etc. You are only able to add to this ledger and never subtract.
2.A normal database is usually centralized and controlled by a single entity. That entity could choose to change the ledger at any time or a malicious actor could change it as well. Therefor it is necessary to trust the owner of the database, which can always be a weakness.
- Digital providence will allow for many cost saving measures. Businesses won’t have to hire middle men to make sure trust isn’t broken. Also, businesses will not have to trust these third parties to be honest, because of digital provenance.

- How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
Answer) Nodes across the network are able to track, verify, maintain, and store information about transactions in real time. The majority of the nodes in the system have to come to a consensus about the validity of a transaction for it to be added to the blockchain. Once a block is added to the blockchain it can’t be removed.
- Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
Answer) Normal databases are less secure. Information stored on them can be hacked, altered, or erased.
- Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
Answer) Businesses will no longer need to place their trust in centralized authorities who might mismanage their assets. Instead, businesses will be able to efficiently transact with people across the globe. This gives them access to markets that might not have existed to them in the past. Businesses will also be able to ensure the quality of their products by being able to track and audit information in real time.

1. How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
ANS: It tracks real time auditing by the second because of the digital footprint that is added when a transaction is made.
2. Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
ANS: It is controlled by authorities and government, which results in human error versus digital action in the moment.
3. Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses? It verifies data in the moment and gives transparent, detailed information immediately versus a delay. This alone will save business time and money along with cost savings from professional and transaction fees.

- Blockchain is a distributed decentralized DB implemented as P2P network such that peers have full access the transaction history.
- Normal data base is stored on a central server. The database subscribers have to rely on trust when they use such database as they can’t get a hold of the entire data set.
- Business can transit from the trust model to verify model. This will ensure higher quality services, reduce compliance/audit overhead and simplify the partnership eco-system so to speak.

Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
Normal data bases can be “manipulated”. Meaning, transaction can b delleted or changed while in the blockchaine due to the nature of the technlogy, this is not possible
Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
It brings the benefit over trust to verify, being sure that what is said is to respectively can be verifed.

Well, it is a public database, so someone can easily track the provenance of something that is inside the blockchain database and makes it even better because is all around the world because of miners and nodes, is not a centralized database that someone has in their power.

Because they are centralized controlled databases.

Customer satisfaction, their is not something better than knowing where the product you buying comes from and if it´s actually what they are telling you the product is. Makes it a more transparent relation with the customer and also the same business knows where their raw material, used to manufacture the product, comes from.

How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
It allows a trustless way of verifying transactions and where everything comes from in the supply chain. The public ledger allows anyone to look at it and analyze all the accounts involved and understand exactly who you’re doing business with, who that person dealt with, and where the things you bought have been. -
Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
Normal databases are centralized and are easily manipulated by those with the power and authority to edit, change, remove, or add entries into the database. There is not really any way to truly verify whether the data within the database has been tampered with or manipulated. -
Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
Because it provides not only an open and transparent way of conducting business, it also removes the need for independent auditors to be paid large sums of money just to verify everything that you’re doing and logging are done in the correct manner. The whole system will be much more efficient, and therefore would inevitably cut costs, and allows the people within the business to focus on more important things that could advance the business further.

How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
Blockchain technology enables digital provenance through a distributed ledger, where all transactions (items) are verified through maths. -
Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
Normal databases can be modified easily, whereas blockchain cannot. You can only add items to a distributed ledger. -
Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
Because it removes trust between entities in business relations, i.e. companies and its clients, or its suppliers.
