Digital Asset Modeling Language ("DAML") is an open-source smart contracts programming language[1] inspired by Haskell. It aids in modeling agreements and runs on some 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 the same month, 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 which employs language-agnostic APIs and standard protocols to integrate with current technology stacks.[11]

Working procedure

DAML separates business logic from systems code, allowing the user to model and execute enterprise interactions.[12][13]

Usage

DAML was designed for 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 across internal and external business endeavors.[15]
