I'm excited to share with you my conversation with Amrit Kumar, Chief Operating Officer at AltLayer. AltLayer is a roll up as a service or RAAS provider. You might have heard of SAAS software as a service. This is roll up as a service and it's allowing teams to build and scale powerful web3 applications at a fraction of the cost.
Their flexible deployment solutions allow for fast, secure and decentralized roll up deployment with Multichain support. In this episode, you'll learn what a roll up as a service is, how roll ups differ from app chains, the benefits and tradeoffs you'll have when making and deploying a roll up on Alt Layer. What a flash layer is and why it's important, what an L2 sequencer is, and why it's important to have a decentralized network of L2 sequencers.
You'll also learn what alt layer has in store over the next 12 months and when mainnet listen to the end and you'll find answers to all of the above.
