Products
Instanodes runs eight product lines. Some share infrastructure, but each solves a distinct problem, from a reliable RPC endpoint to a fully custom chain built for you.
Node as a Service
Managed RPC endpoints and nodes across 50+ blockchains, with shared, dedicated, and archive tiers. Pick a chain and a node type. Instanodes provisions and syncs the node and hands you a live endpoint back, typically in minutes. Most customers start here. The rest of this documentation assumes you use Node as a Service, unless you deploy a validator, rollup, or appchain specifically.
RPC API
The access layer for Node as a Service. JSON-RPC and WebSocket endpoints exposed per chain, with rate limits scaled to your plan. See API Reference for authentication, method examples, and error handling. RPC API is the interface. Node as a Service is the infrastructure behind the interface.
Rollup as a Service
For teams wanting to run their own chain instead of building on someone else's. Instanodes deploys and manages a rollup on OP Stack, Arbitrum Orbit, Polygon CDK, or ZKsync. Instanodes handles the sequencer, prover, and data-availability layer, so you focus on your application logic instead of rollup operations. A block explorer, bridge integration, and ongoing infrastructure management come with the deployment. A rollup launch does not leave you managing five different vendors for one chain.

Validator Nodes
Proof-of-stake validator hosting across Ethereum, Cosmos, Polkadot, Avalanche, and other PoS networks. Instanodes covers MEV optimization, slashing protection, automatic reconnect on failure, and 24/7 alerting: the operational work keeping a validator earning rewards instead of taking penalties. Institutional clients get dedicated reporting dashboards and direct engineering access.

Appchain
For teams needing more than a rollup: a fully custom application-specific chain. Appchain is a managed engagement covering architecture, governance design, tokenomics, bridge, and explorer delivery, from initial scoping through production launch. Think build partnership, not self-serve product.
Dedicated Clusters
Single-tenant, isolated infrastructure for teams needing compute kept separate, for performance predictability or for security requirements. Dedicated Clusters target sub-50ms p99 latency, contracted throughput, and multi-region failover. SLA terms get written into your own agreement, not pulled from a shared tier's fine print.
Enterprise Blockchain
Permissioned and sovereign network builds for institutions and governments, on Corda, Hyperledger, Cosmos SDK, or Substrate. Instanodes architects and operates each build under contract, not through a self-serve dashboard. Compliance, data residency, and governance requirements shape the infrastructure from day one.

One-Click Deployment
The delivery mechanism behind most of the products above: validator, sequencer, prover, or archival nodes deployed from the dashboard without manual server provisioning. For standard node types, deployment typically completes in minutes.
