How do I set up my own Solana RPC node?

Setting up a Solana RPC node requires provisioning high-performance hardware, installing Solana software, configuring the environment, opening ports, and fully syncing the blockchain. It also requires continuous monitoring and maintenance.

What are the benefits of dedicated Solana node access for validators and dApps?

Dedicated Solana nodes offer exclusive compute, consistent low latency, predictable throughput, custom configuration, and strong isolation from noisy neighbors, improving performance during traffic spikes.

What makes GetBlock’s Solana RPC nodes fast?

GetBlock provides ultra-low latency (as low as ~14ms in Europe), high throughput (1,000+ RPS), optimized networking, geo-deployed nodes, custom load-balancing, and enterprise-grade infrastructure designed specifically for Solana performance.

What is Solana Yellowstone gRPC Geyser and how does it help?

Yellowstone gRPC Geyser streams real-time Solana blocks, slots, accounts, and transactions directly from validators over gRPC. It enables low-latency, high-frequency data delivery for trading bots, indexers, MEV strategies, or analytics systems.

Do dedicated Solana nodes with GetBlock include archive and historical data?

Yes. GetBlock provides access to historical and archive data, enabling analytics, indexers, explorers, and compliance workflows to retrieve past states and transactions reliably.

How fast is GetBlock’s support for Solana customers?

GetBlock offers premium Solana-native support with a 5-minute response SLA and multiple support channels including Slack, Telegram, and on-call escalation for critical workloads.

Solana

World’s fastest Solana nodes. Like, <20ms fast.

Q: What is a Solana RPC node and how does it work?

A Solana RPC node is a gateway that lets your app query on-chain data, submit transactions, and interact with Solana programs. It communicates with validators on your behalf and returns results to your application.

Q: Why should I use a high-performance Solana RPC provider with dedicated node access?

Dedicated Solana RPC nodes provide exclusive resources, lower latency, higher throughput, no rate limits, and more stable performance for production workloads such as trading, DeFi, bots, and high-traffic dApps.

Q: What are the hardware requirements for running a Solana RPC node?

A performant Solana RPC node typically requires 16 CPU cores, 128GB RAM, fast NVMe SSD storage of 1TB or more, and a 1Gbps+ network. These requirements grow over time as the chain grows.

Q: How do I choose the best Solana RPC provider with dedicated nodes in 2025?

Evaluate latency benchmarks, uptime SLAs, data center locations, throughput guarantees, archive access, Yellowstone gRPC support, MEV protection, pricing, and the provider's track record with enterprise workloads.

Q: Are there alternatives to running my own Solana RPC node?

Yes. Managed Solana RPC services offer dedicated nodes, archive data, Yellowstone gRPC, monitoring, and 24/7 support without requiring teams to operate hardware themselves.

Q: What is the difference between a public Solana RPC endpoint and dedicated node access?

Public endpoints are shared and come with rate limits and inconsistent performance. Dedicated nodes provide private capacity, guaranteed throughput, low latency, and higher reliability for mission-critical applications.
