Polygon Labs and Google Cloud introduced a multi-year partnership at Consensus 2023 that can see the cloud computing service supplier assist increase the event of the Ethereum (ETH) scaling protocol’s instruments and infrastructure.
Polygon’s core protocols, together with Polygon PoS (proof-of-stake), Polygon zkEVM and Polygon Supernets, are set to learn from the supply of Google Cloud’s framework and developer instruments. The partnership is geared toward simplifying developer integration to construct, launch and develop Web3 merchandise and decentralized functions (DApp) on Polygon.
Google Cloud’s partnership with the ecosystem is predicted to advance Polygon’s zero-knowledge growth. Testing of Polygon zkEVM’s zero-knowledge proofs (zk-proofs) on Google Cloud reportedly resulted in quicker and cheaper transactions in comparison with the prevailing infrastructure obtainable.
The Polygon zkEVM beta, an Ethereum Digital Machine (EVM) scaling answer, was launched to mainnet in March 2023, powering decreased transaction prices and elevated throughput of good contract deployments.

Google Cloud’s Blockchain Node Engine might be utilized by the Polygon ecosystem to help with time-intensive processes and expensive overheads of buying, sustaining and working devoted blockchain nodes. This particular integration intends to take away the necessity for Polygon builders to configure and run Polygon PoS nodes.
Polygon Labs president Ryan Wyatt highlighted the big variety of advantages to the protocol’s ecosystem by means of the partnership in an announcement coinciding with the roll out of the collaboration:
“In the present day’s announcement with Google Cloud goals to extend transaction throughput enabling use instances in gaming, provide chain administration, and DeFi.”
Google Cloud’s APAC managing director of engineering and Web3 go-to-market Mitesh Agarwal stated its companies are bettering knowledge availability, resilience and efficiency of scaling protocols like zk-proofs.
The partnership may also present capital sources to Polygon ecosystem builders and firms constructing Web3 merchandise and DApps. Sure early-stage Polygon Ventures-backed startups may also have the ability to obtain newly-launched Web3-specific advantages from the Google for Startups Cloud Program.
Google Cloud’s startup accelerator program now helps 11 main blockchain corporations. In the meantime, blockchain analytics agency Nansen additionally introduced that its knowledge companies could be obtainable to tasks in Google Cloud’s Web3 startup program.
