### AggLayer v1 (AL1)

The AggLayer is the interoperability layer at the heart of Polygon 2.0. All CDK chains connect to the AggLayer to enable features such as seamless and efficient cross-chain communication, unified liquidity, and more. AggLayer v1 (AL1), is the first version of many planned iterations that relies on ZK checks to ensure operational soundness, and a unified bridge infrastructure.

### Rollups

Rollups refer to blockchain scaling solutions (in the context of Ethereum) that carry out transaction execution on L2, and then post updated state data to a contract on L1. There are different types rollups, two of the most popular being optimistic, and zero-knowledge (ZK) rollups. Follow the links below to learn more:

The best way to accomplish this goal is through zero-knowledge cryptography as it is capable of providing verifiable proofs that attest to the integrity of off-chain computations. Otherwise, scaling technologies often have to add additional social-economic mechanisms to mediate off-chain computations. The consequence of which is delayed settlement of transactions.
