Google Cloud and Polygon Labs Team Up to Provide Enterprise Infrastructure and Developer Tools

Google Cloud and Polygon Labs have entered a multiyear partnership as Polygon seeks to accelerate the adoption of its core protocols, including Polygon PoS, Polygon Supernets, and Polygon zkEVM. 

In this partnership, Google Cloud will provide infrastructure and developer tools, enabling developers to build their Web3 products and decentralized applications (dApps) on Polygon protocols.

To reduce the time and cost associated with operating blockchain nodes, Google Cloud will bring Blockchain Node Engine, its fully managed node hosting service, to the Polygon ecosystem. With the Blockchain Node Engine, developers no longer have to worry about running their Polygon PoS nodes.

Previously, developers were using the Google Cloud Marketplace to deploy a Polygon PoS node to power their dApps with one click. In 2021, Google Cloud Marketplace added the Polygon blockchain dataset to its Google Cloud Public Dataset Program. By leveraging this dataset, developers can integrate BigQuery, the serverless enterprise data warehouse of Google Cloud, with either Polygon PoS or Polygon Supernets. This integration allows developers to make decisions based on real-time analysis of on-chain and cross-chain data.

With Polygon Supernets, a dedicated app chain, enterprises and developers of specific applications can customize and extend blockspace according to their needs. Polygon Labs said that one-click developer net (DevNet) deployments on Google Cloud will be enabled by the end of Q3 this year. This will allow developers interested in deploying a Supernet to provision a three to five-node network with a simulated bridge in their virtual private cloud (VPC) to determine whether the Supernets stack is suitable for their project.

Launched last month in mainnet beta, Polygon zkEVM – an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) equivalent scaling solution – will use Google Cloud’s services to advance its zero-knowledge strategy. According to a press release, initial tests to run Polygon zkEVM’s zero-knowledge proofs on Google Cloud have resulted in significantly faster and cheaper transactions compared to its current setup.

“Today’s announcement with Google Cloud aims to increase transaction throughput enabling use cases in gaming, supply chain management, and DeFi. This will pave the way for even more businesses to embrace blockchain technology through Polygon,”

Ryan Wyatt, President of Polygon Labs said in a statement.

This partnership comes after Google Cloud announced its web3 startup program earlier this week. As one of the blockchain partners in the startup program, Polygon is offering participating web3 startups with verified funding a total of up to $3 million from the Polygon Ventures Ecosystem Fund.
