Cerulea supports two primary deployment architectures. The architecture selected at project creation determines every subsequent configuration decision.

Runtime Engine

The Runtime Engine defines how configured systems become executable blockchain environments. Runtime behavior is versioned: every deployment is associated with a specific runtime version, and changes occur only through governance-approved upgrades.

  • WASM-based execution for smart contracts and modules
  • EVM compatibility for Solidity-based contracts on Public L1
  • On-chain parameter adjustments via governance
  • Runtime security sandboxing to prevent unauthorised execution
  • Versioned upgrade orchestration with no hard forks required

Cross-Chain Interoperability

Cross-chain capabilities are configured, not assumed. Supported interoperability includes cross-chain message passing, asset bridging protocols, and optional Private Chain to Public L1 connectivity. All external connectivity must be explicitly enabled during configuration.
