# What is Rollup-as-a-Service (RaaS)?

Rollup-as-a-Service (RaaS) is a product to launch new application-tailored rollups. The offering is similar to a software-as-a-service product, where a user does not need to maintain or host any part of the service offering, and hence is freed from complex software and hardware management.\
\
With a rollup-as-a-service product, developers are either given SDKs or a dashboard to launch application-specific rollups. Developers to not have to worry about finding nodes to operate the rollup, neither do they have to worry about building or maintaining any code.
