Tooling
Dashboard
The dashboard is your primary interface. Deploy nodes and endpoints, monitor real-time latency, uptime, and throughput, manage API keys and access roles, and track usage against your plan's limits, all from one screen. The dashboard also surfaces the same data behind the public status page. When something looks wrong, check whether the issue is isolated to your account or part of a broader regional event, without leaving the dashboard.
Scriptable deployment
For teams preferring scripting deployments over clicking through a UI, Instanodes supports CLI-driven and infrastructure-as-code workflows alongside the dashboard. CI/CD pipelines use this to spin up testnet infrastructure on demand. Teams standardizing deployment across multiple chains use the same workflows. Talk to your Instanodes contact for current CLI availability and setup for your account.
SDK and library compatibility
Instanodes requires no proprietary SDK. Every EVM endpoint speaks standard JSON-RPC and WebSocket, so the endpoint works out of the box with the tooling most web3 teams already use:
- ethers.js and web3.js for JavaScript and TypeScript applications
- web3.py for Python
- Hardhat and Foundry for smart contract development and testing. Point either at your Instanodes endpoint the same way you point them at a local node or any other provider.
- Native RPC/WebSocket clients for non-EVM chains (Solana, Cosmos, Polkadot, and the others covered in Chains & Networks), using whichever client library is standard for the ecosystem
The practical effect: switching to or from Instanodes is a configuration change, not a rewrite.
