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

Google Cloud’s Blockchain Node Engine can be utilized by the Polygon ecosystem to help with time-intensive processes and dear 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 wide range of advantages to the protocol’s ecosystem by the partnership in a press release coinciding with the rollout of the collaboration:
“Immediately’s announcement with Google Cloud goals to improve transaction throughput enabling use circumstances 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 performance of scaling protocols like ZK-proofs.
The partnership will even present capital sources to Polygon ecosystem builders and corporations constructing Web3 merchandise and DApps. Sure early-stage Polygon Ventures-backed startups will even have the option to obtain newly launched Web3-specific advantages from the Google for Startups Cloud Program.
Google Cloud’s startup accelerator program now supports 11 major blockchain firms. In the meantime, blockchain analytics firm Nansen additionally introduced that its knowledge companies can be out there to tasks in Google Cloud’s Web3 startup program.
