Google Cloud to run a Puffer UniFi gateway via Puffer Preconf

Puffer Finance named Google Cloud as an infrastructure partner for Puffer UniFi, its self-building layer, in an announcement that was also shared in Chinese via Puffer's regional account. Google Cloud will operate as a registered gateway on Puffer Preconf, Puffer's preconfirmation infrastructure for Ethereum rollups — receiving transactions, applying ordering policies, and delivering sub-second execution preconfirmations before final settlement on Ethereum.

• Puffer UniFi will be the first rollup to use Google Cloud's gateway
• Preconfirmations are backed by restaked ETH economic security, with slashing designed to cover failed commitments
• The multi-gateway architecture lets rollups run gateways in parallel or fall back across them

Google Cloud's enterprise-grade, globally distributed infrastructure now sits inside UniFi's execution path, a step Puffer says targets high-frequency applications from payments, perps, and institutional order flow to AI agents transacting onchain.
