The new way to make blockchain even more powerful and accessible
Nethermind’s pre‑configured VM images on Google Cloud Marketplace let enterprise customers launch production‑grade blockchain nodes in minutes with no manual configuration or command‑line steps. Combined with Google Cloud’s Terraform AutogenCli and best‑practice documentation, teams get an automated, auditable pathway for their blockchain data needs.
This one-click node deployment is part of a broader philosophy that underpins Nethermind's Blockchain‑as‑a‑Service (BaaS), making it simpler for enterprises to build on blockchain, without compromising on flexibility or control.
Through Nethermind’s BaaS, organizations can layer on compliance solutions, bespoke rollup frameworks, or privacy features—without rebuilding infrastructure—reducing time-to-market and enabling teams to focus resources on innovation.
Why Google Cloud?
Deploying blockchain nodes requires a complex setup and tuning. Moreover, configuring and running blockchain nodes is a challenging task, requiring in-depth expertise in blockchain infrastructure.
Nethermind chose Google Cloud because it provided the tools and platform to achieve their objective of making blockchain node deployment more straightforward for their users through ready-to-use VM images. Google Marketplace also serves as an efficient way for Nethermind to distribute its blockchain solutions with automated provisioning.
With Google Cloud Marketplace we give enterprises a one-click on-ramp to production-grade blockchain nodes. That’s the first step in our Blockchain-as-a-Service offering, allowing enterprises and institutions to custom-tailor those networks without rebuilding from scratch. Google Cloud’s tooling makes the process much faster and more straightforward, allowing us to focus on bespoke customization and scaling for every institutional client.
