Everything you need.A direct line to Solana.

RPC, Geyser gRPC, and Direct Shreds run on the network right next to Solana. You talk to the chain directly.

Solana FoundationRijksdienstRIPE NCCCircle

Speed is determined by distance to Solana.

The region matters. But a city name alone is not a network path. Even in the same city, external transit and extra hops can add latency. ERPC selects data centers close to Solana servers, then keeps routes short with no external transit and sustained turbo boost.

Measured benchmark

Same-class machine. Not the same speed.

AMD Turin, 4 vCPU, Amsterdam, Ubuntu 24.04 — the same on both boxes, one major cloud and ours. The spec sheet says they’re equals. The bench says otherwise.

Same silicon. The gap is our tuning — the box dialed in and seated right next to Solana.

Stake-weighted priority (SWQoS)

If your transactions keep failing, you’re stuck in the spam lane.

Solana’s leaders split priority bandwidth in two. Connections backed by stake — SOL committed to a validator — get 80% of it. Everyone else fights over the other 20% — the lane that’s packed with spam.

Firing straight at the leader feels like the fast move — but with no stake, that’s the crowded 20% lane, and under load your transaction never makes the block.

So the real answer is a staked validator. We run a top-tier one wired into high-quality RPC lines — hardware placed right next to Solana — so your transactions get through the wide lane.

Stake rides the wide 80% lane into the validator — before any fee. No stake, you’re crammed in the 20% spam lane.

Core Node Locations

Built where Solana runs fastest.

Across our global footprint, we select only premium data centers where Solana runs at its best, then run RPCs, streams, and dedicated nodes on top-tier hardware at full throttle. We also offer bare metal servers and VPS options so you can deploy apps on the same network and stay on the fastest paths.
