Everyone keeps shouting Gmera or Caldera everyday without really realising how important caldera is

Caldera is the infrastructure that powers the transition from shared blockchains to specialised rollups.

By removing complexity, it speeds up launches using modular stacks.

Here is an infographic on how Caldera helps developers launch modular app-specific rollups easily.

Let me break down each section:

🔸 Top Left: Launch Your Own Chain in Minutes

This highlights how simple Caldera makes rollup deployment using popular frameworks:

•EVM: Ethereum Virtual Machine compatible

•OP Stack: Optimism’s rollup framework

•Arbitrum: Another rollup option supported by Caldera

→ Developers don’t need deep infrastructure knowledge to spin up chains.

🔸 Top Right: Choose Your Stack

Caldera lets you customise your rollups using modular components:

•DA Layer (Data Availability):

•Celestia

•EigenDA

•Sequencer: Orders transactions

•Indexer: Provides searchable blockchain data

→ You can mix and match components to suit your app’s performance needs.

🔸 Center: Your App-Specific Rollup

This is the chain you build with Caldera

It is customised, optimised, and entirely dedicated to your application.

→ Instead of competing with thousands of dApps on a shared L1, you have your chain.

🔸 Bottom: Use Case Examples

Caldera rollups can power various types of applications:

•DeFi – for high-speed trading, lending, etc.

•Gaming – where low latency is key

•Social – like Degen chain or Farcaster L2s

•NFTs – minting, marketplaces, and more

→ Each of these platforms has its own chain, performance characteristics, and user experience.

I hope you now understand why Caldera is essential.
