- Developers and companies may deploy customized chains at a never-before-seen speed thanks to Aurora Cloud Console.
- Anybody can now start a bespoke chain in less than a minute, even without any prior knowledge of coding.
Aurora Labs has announced a new feature in its Cloud Console that automates blockchain deployment. With no manual setup needed, anybody can now start a bespoke chain in less than a minute, even without any prior knowledge of coding.
The first step in a comprehensive 2025 roadmap to alter blockchain infrastructure inside the NEAR ecosystem is the deployment of automation for the Aurora Cloud Console (ACC). Developers and companies may deploy customized chains at a never-before-seen speed thanks to Aurora Cloud Console, which removes the hassles involved in creating bespoke blockchains.
Among Aurora Cloud Console’s core features are:
- Guided onboarding process
- Customizable parameters (permissions, base token, gas fees, integrations)
- Real-time transaction usage monitoring
- Real-time tracking of chain deployment progress
Aurora Cloud Console is the cornerstone of an audacious ambition to expand to 1,000 bespoke chains by year-end. This first automation breakthrough accelerates deployment, removing conventional constraints such as longer setup periods and the requirement for specialized skills. Aurora’s Q1 plan offers a number of changes targeted to further simplify and broaden blockchain capabilities.
As Aurora Labs CEO, Alex Shevchenko puts it:
“Aurora Cloud Console creates a future where launching a blockchain is as easy as deploying a smart contract. With 1,000 chains on the horizon, we’re building an ecosystem where anyone can create without limits, scale without friction, and tap into the full power of NEAR’s network. The barriers are gone. Anyone can be a Builder now.”
In order to improve interoperability, further updates will include Forwarder and Intents support in addition to automated bridge setup. Full gas management, customizable chain permissions, and one-click Oracle deployment will follow, enabling projects to access pricing data from services like CoinGecko or Dexscreener.
In order to facilitate smooth fiat-crypto transitions, Aurora Labs also plans to implement automated gas plans, on/offramp integrations, and instant DEX deployment through Trisolaris during Q1. Stablecoins and Bitcoin will be introduced as base tokens later in the year, along with universal virtual chain indexing, inactive chain recycling, and expanded intents for on-chain automation, according to Aurora Labs’ roadmap.
The automation of ACC is in line with the expansion of Rollups-as-a-Service (RaaS), where there is a growing need for effective, scalable blockchain solutions. A new generation of projects within the flourishing NEAR and Aurora ecosystems will have democratized access thanks to ACC’s free launch model and complete customization.
The improvements made to Aurora Cloud Console put Aurora Labs at the forefront of bringing blockchain access to the general public and open the door for future growth-oriented plans to incorporate AI, intents, and expanded use cases.
Aurora is a network of Virtual Chains that operate as smart contracts on the NEAR Protocol and are completely customizable. The chains are compatible with the EVM. Without the high setup costs and complexity of a traditional L2 infrastructure, virtual chains give developers the speed and scalability they require. Aurora opens the door to a multichain world by combining a high-performance EVM, the trustless Intents layer, and cutting-edge Cross Contract Call technology, going beyond complete Ethereum compatibility.
