Ankr and Matter Labs have partnered to launch dedicated zkSync Era Nodes and Hyperchain blockchain solutions on the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. The collaboration aims to facilitate web3 development growth and enterprise adoption by providing easy access to blockchain infrastructure for Azure’s customers.
The solutions for the zkSync Era network will be available on Ankr’s Microsoft Azure Marketplace listings, resulting from their previous partnership with Microsoft. The integration will combine Ankr’s specialized solutions, zkSync Era’s scalable blockchain network, and Microsoft’s cloud infrastructure.
The zkSync Era node deployment service will enable global blockchain connections, allowing enterprises and web3 projects to connect to or build web3 apps on zkSync Era, which is a zkEVM Ethereum Layer-2 scaling protocol. Additionally, the zkSync Era Hyperchains solution will enable enterprises to quickly build and launch their own dedicated Hyperchain blockchain, fully customizable based on their privacy, performance, and security needs, with support from Ankr’s team.
Chandler Song, Co-Founder & CEO of Ankr, mentioned that offering the ability to build on zkSync Era via Ankr’s Microsoft Azure Marketplace solutions will break barriers for businesses with unique scalability and performance requirements.
Marco Cora, senior vice president of business and operations at Matter Labs, emphasized the importance of accommodating complex web2 use cases with stringent security, performance, and privacy requirements to scale blockchain technology effectively.
The collaboration between Ankr, Microsoft Azure, and zkSync Era aims to lower the barrier to entry for enterprises and ignite their adoption of blockchains. They expect more enterprise use cases to take off on zkSync Era, especially with the addition of the recently announced ZK Stack.
The partnership was solidified after the three organizations met earlier in the year during the Interop Summit at ETHDenver, where they discussed their collaboration to bring more users to Web3.
The collaboration aims to accelerate web3 development without compromising performance, scalability, or security by providing easy access to zkEVM technology and infrastructure on the Azure Marketplace.
