According to BlockBeats, Constellation Labs, operating under the name Caldera, has announced a strategic partnership with EigenCloud to integrate EigenDA V2 into its Rollup engine. This integration aims to significantly enhance the data throughput capacity of blockchain Rollups to 100 MB/s, marking a major advancement in scalability and performance.
The collaboration addresses a core challenge faced by Rollups: efficient data availability (DA). Traditionally, Rollups publish transaction data directly to Ethereum's Layer 1 (L1) for validation and state maintenance, which is costly and limits scalability. By utilizing an independent DA layer instead of solely relying on Ethereum L1, Rollups can reduce costs while significantly improving performance, supporting diverse applications without compromising security and decentralization.
Matthew Katz, CEO of Caldera, expressed enthusiasm about integrating EigenDA V2 into Caldera's Rollup engine, highlighting the unparalleled scalability it offers to partner projects. As more institutions, including payment companies, fintech firms, and banks, transition to blockchain, the importance of breakthrough scalability becomes increasingly evident.
EigenDA represents a forward-looking blockchain infrastructure solution, drawing inspiration from Danksharding design principles while eliminating the need for an independent consensus mechanism.
