Polygon has launched CDK Besu, now live as the latest configuration option in Polygon CDK within the Open Money Stack (OMS), per the official announcement. Teams can launch a new private Besu chain or connect an existing Besu network, ending the isolation typical of private chains.
- Polygon Foundation CEO Sandeep Nailwal called it a "big unlock for enterprises," arguing Besu chains with AggLayer interoperability carry "no tradeoffs on connectivity or liquidity."
- Private chains keep their own validators, rules, and data on their own infrastructure, while gaining access to counterparties, markets, and liquidity across AggLayer-connected chains.
- Cross-chain transfers are secured by Polygon's zk-powered pessimistic proofs, and OMS provides the infrastructure and services to build and operate the chain.
