Using a new Blockchain RPC Service based on Google infrastructure, you can build and scale more quickly.
RPC Blockchain
What is Blockchain RPC?
With the dependability, speed, and security users anticipate from Google Cloud compute and network infrastructure, Blockchain RPC is an enterprise-grade solution that enables read and write access to several blockchains using their standard RPC APIs. Blockchain RPC offers a solution that scales smoothly with your organization, whereas self-managed nodes are frequently challenging to maintain and deploy during high workloads.
Blockchain technologies are revolutionizing the way information is moved and stored around the globe. Blockchain RPC is an extension of its dedication to supporting Web3 developers in creating and implementing new products on blockchain-enabled systems.
Required conditions
A Google Cloud account that has the Cloud Blockchain RPC API enabled is required.
Steps:
- Make an API key.
- Set up an RPC connection for the project.
- To send requests to the Ethereum mainnet or testnets, use the endpoint.
RPC node blockchain
Blockchains are decentralized databases made up of anonymized transaction data that is kept indefinitely. A blockchain’s governing architecture consists of nodes, which are computers, laptops, or servers that have a complete copy of the blockchain’s transaction history on them. This eliminates the need for a central authority to verify and store data. In order to keep all nodes in sync, nodes on a blockchain form a peer-to-peer network by continuously exchanging the most recent blockchain data.
Ethereum
Developers may now provide fully managed Ethereum nodes with secure blockchain access thanks to Ethereum, the first blockchain enabled by Blockchain RPC.
Google Cloud has launched a new Blockchain RPC (Remote Procedure Call) service, furthering its dedication to helping Web3 developers. This new service offers developers a more efficient means of interacting with blockchain data. It reduces the complexity of managing node infrastructure and offers a dependable, scalable, and affordable alternative.
Because it might affect the availability and performance of their applications, RPC dependability is a serious problem for Web3 developers. To keep their apps up and running, many developers today rely on several RPC providers. It is providing the Web3 ecosystem with a strong foundation for decentralized apps by bringing its experience in managing massive infrastructure to bear with Google Cloud’s Blockchain RPC service.
Developers at a broad spectrum of companies are served by the Blockchain RPC service, ranging from startups looking for a quick and simple entry point into the blockchain to major corporations needing the dependability, security, and performance of Google Cloud’s infrastructure.
With its free tier, which supports up to 100 requests per second, Blockchain RPC is now available for developers to create data-intensive, real-time apps. Additionally, the service is available for the Ethereum mainnet and testnets at launch, and it will support multiple additional chains in the upcoming year.
With just one line of code, developers may incorporate it into their apps because it is entirely compliant with the Ethereum JSON-RPC standard.
The following are the main attributes of Google Cloud’s Blockchain RPC service:
Enterprise-grade dependability: By utilizing Google Cloud infrastructure, the service offers security and dependability, assisting in the provision of a solid framework for developers’ applications.
Economical substitute for dedicated nodes: Blockchain RPC allows up to 100 queries per second and 1 million requests per day in the free tier.
Compatibility: By by altering their RPC endpoints, developers can effortlessly switch from current RPC providers.
Scalability: No manual scaling is required since the service can grow to accommodate increasing request volumes.
The Blockchain RPC service is now in preview internationally, enabling developers to create the Web3 applications of the future.
Blockchain RPC pricing
Blockchain RPC is currently under preview and can be used for free.
