ERPC and Blockspace by Everstake Partner on Low-Latency Solana Infrastructure
ERPC, the Global Edge Blockchain Infrastructure platform operated by ELSOUL LABO B.V. (headquartered in Amsterdam, the Netherlands; CEO: Fumitake Kawasaki), announces a technology partnership with Blockspace by Everstake to expand low-latency infrastructure services for Solana.
The partnership combines Blockspace by Everstake's low-latency Solana data infrastructure and validator expertise with ERPC's own network, RPC and data services, compute infrastructure and developer tools. The collaboration has delivered Shreds UDP Forwarding Premium, available through ERPC in seven regions. Customers can combine the feed with separately selected ERPC infrastructure and use the Solana Stream SDK to process Shreds in their applications. The teams are also preparing a Premium SWQoS transaction-sending product.
Complementary Expertise, Shared Product Development
Trading systems and other real-time Solana applications need to receive data, reconstruct it and act on it. Network delivery, application placement and processing software all affect how soon a system can use the data. The partnership brings these areas together so developers can evaluate them in their own environment.
Blockspace by Everstake brings Everstake's experience in validator operations and network optimization to low-latency Solana data delivery. Its work spans validator software, hardware and network connectivity, providing a foundation for both Shreds delivery and further collaboration on transaction sending.
ERPC develops and operates its own network, RPC services, data streams and compute infrastructure, and builds open-source developer tools. Its bare-metal servers and VPS environments let customers run applications close to blockchain infrastructure. ERPC brings engineering expertise across the network connection, the receiving environment and the software that processes blockchain data.
The collaboration centers on joint product development and integration. By combining Blockspace by Everstake's data-delivery infrastructure with ERPC's product engineering, compute infrastructure, data services and developer tools, the teams help customers address data reception, application placement and processing together.
Shreds UDP Forwarding Premium: Solana Shreds Delivery over UDP
Shreds UDP Forwarding Premium is ERPC's low-latency UDP data feed for Solana, developed with Blockspace by Everstake and integrating Blockspace's ShredStream. Solana Shreds are fragments of block data that propagate across the network. Within the selected region's Premium mesh, the service delivers the earliest available copy of each Shred directly to the customer's receiver.
Figure: In ERPC's 30 October 2026 test, one Frankfurt receiver compared the feeds for 120 seconds. Among identical Shreds received on both feeds, Premium arrived first in 98% of cases, with a median arrival-time lead of 1.78 ms over Standard. These are packet-arrival measurements for that receiver and interval.
Both teams contributed to the product integration between Blockspace's ShredStream and the ERPC platform. ERPC's work covers product engineering, infrastructure operations and the application environment around the feed. Customers can separately select ERPC bare-metal servers or VPS to run their applications close to the relevant blockchain infrastructure.
Using the open-source Solana Stream SDK, developers can reconstruct and process transaction data from Shreds. They can also select RPC or Geyser gRPC services when they need execution results and additional on-chain information. This lets teams assess data reception, application placement and processing in their own environment.
See the ERPC Shreds product page for access options, the Solana Stream SDK for implementation examples, and the Shreds UDP Forwarding Premium release article for the measurement method and detailed results.
Next: Premium SWQoS Transaction Sending
ERPC and Blockspace by Everstake are also preparing a Premium SWQoS transaction-sending product. This extends the direction of the collaboration from receiving Solana data to submitting transactions.
The teams intend to continue developing products that draw on their respective strengths in validator operations, network performance and infrastructure engineering. Further details about the Premium SWQoS product and its availability will be announced separately.
Comments from Both Partners
Blockspace by Everstake
"Low-latency Solana infrastructure is only useful if developers can access it easily. ERPC combines global edge connectivity with dedicated low-latency infrastructure, and through ERPC’s UDP Forwarding Premium, their customers get Blockspace's ShredStream with the flexibility to use it the way their workloads demand."
Bohdan Opryshko, Co-Founder and COO at Everstake
ELSOUL LABO B.V.
"Working with the Blockspace by Everstake team is an important step in expanding what we can deliver through ERPC. Their experience in validator operations and network optimization complements our own infrastructure and product engineering. For our customers, that means access to advanced Solana connectivity alongside the compute, data services and developer tools needed to put it to work. Shreds UDP Forwarding Premium is already bringing this collaboration to our customers. We are excited to keep building on that foundation, including transaction sending, and to help our customers build faster, more dependable systems."
