<p><a href="https://www.zeeve.io/">Zeeve</a>, the leading <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/rollups/">Rollups-as-a-service(RaaS) platform</a>, will leverage <a href="https://celestia.org/">Celestia</a>, the leading modular blockchain network, to bring low-cost data availability for <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/rollups/">rollups</a> and <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/appchains/">appchains</a>.</p>
<p>The primary challenge to the growth of the rollup ecosystem has been the high cost associated with posting callData to <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/blockchain-protocols/deploy-ethereum-blockchain/">Ethereum</a> L1. This has increasingly become a major barrier, impacting both financial feasibility and the scalability of rollup operations. Celestia offers a solution with a significant reduction in Data Availability (DA) costs. The Celestia network offers a dedicated blockchain for publishing transaction data, an efficient system for data retrieval, and a secure, ample blobspace for scalable data storage.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now, web3 builders and enterprises will be able to leverage the power of Celestia’s alt DA layer and <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/">Zeeve’s low-code platform</a> to deploy rollups in a few clicks, with High-uptime sequencing and full provisioning (block explorers, faucets, data indexers, cross-chain brides, and more). Zeeve’s RaaS is already compatible with a wide range of Ethereum rollup frameworks, such as <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/appchains/polygon-zkrollups/">Polygon CDK</a>, Arbitrum Orbit, and <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/appchains/optimistic-rollups/">OP Stack</a>, all of which can seamlessly integrate with Celestia. This complete setup will enable better performance, lower fees, and more possibilities for both developers and end users.</p>
<p>“Addressing the needs of developers requiring alternative DA solutions is crucial for the growth of modular blockchain ecosystem, said Dr Ravi Chamria, co-founder and CEO of Zeeve. With this integration, we're looking at a huge cut in callData costs for all the L2 rollups, potentially by about 100 times. Coupled with Zeeve Rollups-as-a-service, launching an <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/appchains/optimistic-rollups/">optimistic</a> and <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/appchains/polygon-zkrollups/">ZK rollup chain</a> becomes as simple as deploying a smart contract and opens up a whole new universe of use cases for Ethereum L2s. With more affordable DA and our plug-and-play RaaS, we expect development to accelerate even faster."</p>
<p>This combination creates an ideal setup for a high-performance modular blockchain. In it, the rollup chain functions as the execution layer, with <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/blockchain-protocols/deploy-ethereum-blockchain/">Ethereum</a> handling final settlements, while Celestia provides the backbone for data availability. This ensures robust security and cost-effectiveness with scalable efficiency. Additionally, <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/rollups/">Zeeve's RaaS platform</a> enhances this ecosystem by offering comprehensive, end-to-end deployment solutions, complete with managed infrastructure and guaranteed enterprise-grade security.</p>
<p>Celestia's DA solution will be available to developers launching L2s <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/rollups/">rollups</a> with <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/">Zeeve</a> for all supported frameworks as an easily pluggable component.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Additionally, <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/">Zeeve</a> has a comprehensive partner ecosystem that supports easy integration of various protocols and tools, such as permissionless interoperability protocols, decentralized oracles, data availability layers, sequencing services, and more. These additions are designed to expand and enrich the functionality of smart contracts and sovereign rollups on the Zeeve platform. Also, we provide a one-click Sandbox tool, giving developers a convenient space to experiment and perfect their <a href="https://www.zeeve.io/rollups/">app-specific rollups</a>.</p>
