Using Rollup as a Service

Introduction​

This tutorial provides a guide on how to use the Rollup as a Service feature on the Blast platform. You'll learn how to deploy rollups, manage existing deployments, and understand the associated costs and trial options.

Prerequisites​

  • Login already performed on Consumer APP

Preparing for Deployment:​

Before you begin, ensure you have a paid plan active on your account to take advantage of the trial offer for your first deployment. Otherwise, check that your account is funded, as the cost for deploying a rollup is $50, valid for 7 days per deployment.

info

Please note that if you have active rollups, you will not be able to proceed with creating a team account for the moment.

Step-by-Step Deployment Guide:​

  1. Go to the Deploy Rollup section on the Blast dashboard. Enter the desired rollup name and select the required framework, settlement layer, data availability options. Click on Pay and Deploy to initiate the deployment. If it's your first deployment on a paid plan, you may use the trial to waive the fee.

Deploy Rollup

  1. Navigate to the Deployments section to view the status of your rollup. Each deployment will show its status as 'In Progress', 'Live', 'Expired', or 'Failed'. For each active or completed deployment, click on the rollup to view detailed settings and operational metrics.
