What Is Ankr’s Rollup-as-a-Service for ZK Stack Chains?

Using Ankr’s Rollup as a Service, clients can create an independent ZK Stack-enabled layer 2 blockchain that exclusively serves transactions from their use case. At this time, Ankr has full functionality to deploy ZK Hyperchains in a testnet environment.

As zkSync finishes development of hyperbridges and validium mode, Ankr will upgrade in tandem to support the upgraded version of the ZK Stack. Matter Labs, a software development, engineering, and cryptography company working on and developing zkSync, have collaborated closely with Ankr to integrate its RaaS in order to support ecosystem projects, implement, build, and deliver new hyperchains to prospective customers.

Ankr will provide a variety of RaaS features to make it easier for developers to launch and manage their rollups, such as:

• Blockchain Engineering: Ankr will provide end-to-end engineering for new rollups with customization at every level to meet client specifications for consensus mechanisms, programming languages, throughput, gas fees, and much more.

• Rollup infrastructure: Ankr will launch and operate the underlying node infrastructure needed to run a rollup, such as full nodes, validators, sequencers, and aggregators.

• Development tools: Ankr will provide various development tools and frameworks to help developers build their rollups, such as SDKs and other tools.

• Security and auditing: Ankr will assist developers in securing their rollups and will consult on security auditing by third-party security firms.

• Ongoing support: Ankr will offer ongoing support to developers, such as troubleshooting, performance optimization, and continued node operations.
