// use cases

What Teams Build On Cosmos Nodes

Where a private, uncapped endpoint beats a shared RPC pool.

Wallet App Backends

Power balance checks, staking views, governance screens, and transaction history with stable read performance. Dedicated capacity keeps wallet sessions consistent during market spikes, cutting user-facing timeouts when large groups check balances at once.

Exchange Deposit Operations

Handle confirmations, deposit polling, and withdrawal workflows with predictable node behavior. A dedicated Cosmos Hub RPC node supports high-frequency reads and reliable broadcast paths, so exchanges keep access restricted while scaling hardware as volume rises.

Explorer API Serving

Serve blocks, transactions, and address pages with query depth that matches your users. Explorer workloads often need full or archive retention, and dedicated servers reduce query failures during surges and keep API output consistent for partners.

Indexing and Analytics

Run ETL jobs, dashboards, and research queries without relying on public endpoints. Dedicated access improves repeatability for scheduled pipelines and backfills, and you tune retention and storage as datasets and query ranges grow.

IBC Relayer Operations

Operate relayers and monitoring that depend on steady chain access and timely submissions. Stable RPC reduces missed relay windows and delayed packet handling during busy periods, keeping cross-chain flows healthy when demand rises across connected chains.

Bots and Automation

Support monitoring agents, alerting, and strategy bots that rely on fast reads and timely submissions. Bursty request patterns suffer on shared endpoints, while dedicated capacity keeps response timing consistent when markets move fast and automation ramps up.

// how it works

From Cosmos To Private Endpoint In 3 Steps

Pick a node, we provision dedicated bare metal, you get a private, snapshot-ready RPC URL.

  1. 01

    Pick Your Cosmos Node

    Choose full, archive, or validator and your pruning mode. Tell us the region closest to your users, and which of CometBFT RPC, gRPC, and REST/LCD you need exposed.

  2. 02

    We Provision Bare Metal

    Your single-tenant gaiad node deploys on NVMe, state-synced or snapshot-bootstrapped, so you skip the long cold sync from genesis.

  3. 03

    Get Your Private Endpoint

    Receive a dedicated CometBFT RPC, gRPC, and REST/LCD endpoint with unlimited requests and zero rate limits, private behind IP allowlisting and DDoS protection.

// latency & locations

Put Your Node Where Milliseconds Are Won

RPC latency is mostly a function of distance. A dedicated node lets you choose the exact region, so you sit next to the traffic that matters instead of fighting for routing on a shared, far-away endpoint.

Place It Where Your Users Are

Deploy across 20+ Tier III locations in the US, EU, Asia, and Australia. Put your Cosmos node in the region your traffic actually comes from, not wherever a shared pool happens to route you.

Cut The Round Trips

RPC latency is mostly physical distance. Running in the same region as your users and the Cosmos network's peers shaves the round-trips a far-away, shared endpoint can never give back, which is what high-frequency reads and transaction submission live or die on.

Multi-Region By Design

Run a primary node plus regional read replicas for fast reads everywhere and built-in redundancy. Split public read endpoints from private admin, debug, and trace endpoints.

Need a node within a target latency budget of a specific region or venue? Tell us the endpoint and we'll recommend the closest facility.

// supported chains

One Backbone For Every Major Chain

Run validators, RPC, and archive nodes across the chains your stack depends on, all on the same dedicated bare metal, with the same isolation, speed, and control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Chain IDs, clients, archive data, getLogs limits, and why dedicated beats compute-unit billing.

Why choose Dedicated Cosmos RPC Node Servers instead of a shared Cosmos RPC provider?

Shared Cosmos RPC services work for light traffic. They fail when demand spikes and everyone hits the same pools. A Dedicated Cosmos RPC Node Server from RedSwitches runs on single-tenant hardware, so your CPU, RAM, and NVMe are reserved for your workloads. You avoid noisy neighbors, shared rate limits, and unpredictable latency. This is the safer choice when your wallet, exchange flow, or dApp becomes user-facing.

How do I choose the right Cosmos node type: pruned vs full vs archive?

Choose based on how far back you need data. Pruned nodes keep recent state and reduce storage growth. They suit most apps that only need current balances and recent transactions. Full nodes retain more state for broader operational queries. Archive nodes keep deep history for explorers, compliance, and analytics. RedSwitches helps you pick the right Cosmos node mode, then scale storage and specs as your query depth expands.

What endpoints do I get on a Cosmos Hub RPC node: gRPC, REST, and CometBFT RPC?

A Cosmos Hub node can expose the interfaces modern stacks rely on. We can provide gRPC for efficient structured reads, REST for simple HTTP integrations, and CometBFT RPC for node-level calls and transaction broadcast. You decide what should be public, restricted, or private. This keeps your integration clean whether you are building a wallet backend, explorer API, or automation pipeline.

How fast can you deploy the server, and what determines the Cosmos node sync time?

Server provisioning is quick. Sync time depends on Cosmos Hub chain state, network conditions, and how much history you retain. Pruned nodes usually reach usable state sooner than archive-style setups. We deploy fast, then your node catches up based on real chain conditions. This approach avoids false promises and gives you a realistic go-live plan for your Cosmos Hub RPC environment.

Can you use snapshots or state sync to reduce initial sync time?

Yes. When the network and your configuration allow it, we can use snapshots and state sync strategies to reduce time-to-ready. This is especially useful when you want to bring a dedicated node online quickly for production or disaster recovery. You still get a fully controlled Cosmos dedicated node cluster with your own resources, just with a shorter catch-up window.

Can I restrict RPC access with private endpoints and IP allowlists?

Yes. You can run a private RPC for internal services, allowlist your app servers, or expose limited public endpoints while keeping admin methods restricted. This reduces abuse and protects expensive calls. RedSwitches supports private networking approaches and controlled exposure so your Cosmos RPC is available to the right users only.

Do you offer managed vs unmanaged Cosmos Hub RPC nodes?

Yes. If you want full control, choose unmanaged and operate your node with your own runbooks. If you want help with operations, choose managed options where our team supports stability, updates, and incident response. Either way, you still get a dedicated server and a dedicated Cosmos node, not a shared multi-tenant RPC pool.

How do you handle Cosmos Hub upgrades so my RPC does not fall behind?

Upgrades require planning because chain changes can impact node behavior. We help you schedule upgrades, validate configuration, and restart safely so the node returns to a healthy synced state. For teams with strict uptime needs, we can plan redundancy so your applications have a clean failover path during maintenance windows.

Do you charge per request or per compute unit?

No. Unlike shared RPC providers that bill per "compute unit" and throttle you past a quota, a dedicated node is a flat monthly price with unlimited requests and zero overages. One node equals all the throughput your hardware can serve. That makes budgeting predictable and removes the surprise bills that come with usage-based RPC pricing.

How is this different from a shared RPC endpoint?

Shared RPC pools serve thousands of customers from pooled infrastructure, so you inherit rate limits, noisy-neighbor latency, and compute-unit billing. A RedSwitches node runs on single-tenant bare metal that is yours alone: reserved CPU, RAM, and NVMe, a dedicated 10/25 Gbps port, and a private endpoint you control. Performance tracks your hardware, not another tenant's traffic.

Do I have to sync the node myself, or wait days for it?

No. We provision from current snapshots so your node is live in hours rather than syncing from genesis for days. You can run it yourself with full root access, or choose our fully managed option where our engineers handle the sync, updates, and monitoring. Either way you receive a working private endpoint, not an empty server.

Can I deploy close to a specific region or sequencer?

Yes. With 20+ Tier III locations across the US, EU, Asia, and Australia you can place your node in the same region as your users or a chain's sequencer to cut round-trip latency. Tell us your target region and we will recommend the closest facility. You can also run multi-region nodes for redundancy and split read and write endpoints.
