// use cases

What Teams Build On Gravity Nodes

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

Wallet Flow Reads

When users open balances, approve tokens, or track pending activity, delay erodes trust. A dedicated Gravity RPC node gives account reads, state checks, and transaction lookups a cleaner path on reserved hardware.

Indexer Backfill Runs

Data teams replay logs, rebuild tables, and refill missing ranges after changes or outages. Dedicated Gravity RPC infrastructure helps backfill jobs run with fewer interruptions from shared rate limits and noisy neighbors.

Live Event Feeds

Notification systems, reward triggers, and app alerts depend on fresh on-chain signals. This fits teams that listen continuously and need their Gravity RPC layer to hold steady subscriptions and event capture over WebSockets.

Contract Decision Paths

Many apps make several contract reads before one screen loads or one action completes. Routing logic, eligibility checks, balances, and reward states stack quickly, and dedicated capacity keeps those paths clean under query pressure.

Quest Reward Engines

Gravity often ties to campaign logic, task completion, and reward delivery. This fits platforms that verify on-chain actions, assign outcomes, and issue rewards, where late or inconsistent reads break the user journey.

Settlement Check Flows

Exchanges, custodial tools, and finance dashboards need dependable deposit checks, confirmation reads, and withdrawal status tracking. Dedicated infrastructure matters here because even short lookup delays ripple into user trust and support load.

// how it works

From Gravity 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 Gravity Node

    Choose full or archive, and bring or host the Ethereum L1 RPC plus beacon endpoint your Nitro node depends on. Pick the region closest to your users.

  2. 02

    We Provision Bare Metal

    Your single-tenant Arbitrum Nitro node deploys on dedicated NVMe, bootstrapped from a current chaindata snapshot, so you skip the multi-day replay.

  3. 03

    Get Your Private Endpoint

    Receive a dedicated HTTPS + WSS RPC 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 Gravity 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 the Gravity sequencer 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.

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.

What is a Gravity RPC node, and how does it work on Gravity Alpha Mainnet?

A Gravity RPC node is the server your app talks to when it needs chain data, transaction status, logs, or contract reads. Today the live production target is Gravity Alpha Mainnet, which Gravity documents as an Ethereum rollup using the Arbitrum Nitro stack. We run that node on dedicated hardware so your app gets a private Gravity RPC lane instead of competing inside a public pool.

Can I run a Gravity validator node?

Not in the staking sense. Gravity Alpha Mainnet is an Ethereum rollup on the Arbitrum Nitro stack with a centralized sequencer, so there is no permissionless, stake-to-earn validator like Ethereum or Solana. What we provision is what apps and indexers actually need: a fast, dedicated full or archive RPC node running the Nitro client, with trace and debug builds available for heavier workloads.

Do I need an Ethereum L1 RPC and beacon endpoint to run a Gravity node?

Yes. Gravity's live node guide is clear on this: you need a local data directory, an Ethereum mainnet RPC endpoint with unlimited eth_getLogs, and an Ethereum beacon chain RPC endpoint. The guide also requires the latest snapshot, because syncing from genesis is not supported due to historical data availability format changes. You can bring your own Ethereum endpoints or host them with us in the same region for tighter latency, and we plan around those upstream dependencies from day one.

What chain ID and network settings do I need for Gravity Alpha Mainnet?

For Gravity Alpha Mainnet the official chain ID is 1625 and the native token is G. Gravity's docs also list the official RPC endpoint and explorer references for the live network. If you are connecting a wallet, backend, or middleware stack, we use those live settings as the base and then point your services to your private RedSwitches endpoint once your server is ready.

Do I need a full node or an archive node for my Gravity workload?

Most teams do not need archive on day one. A full node is usually enough for wallets, dashboards, internal services, transaction tracking, and many dApps. Archive is the better fit when you need deeper historical state access, long-range research, forensic work, or heavier historical processing. Since Gravity's live network runs on Nitro today, we use this as our practical sizing approach for production Gravity RPC workloads.

Does a dedicated Gravity RPC setup support both HTTPS and WebSocket connections?

Yes. Gravity's self-hosted node guide maps HTTP on 8547 and WebSocket on 8548, so a self-managed or managed dedicated deployment can serve both request-response traffic and subscription-driven workloads. We usually recommend HTTPS for standard app reads and broadcasts, then WebSockets for live event listeners, bots, notifications, and systems that need fresh block or log updates without constant polling.

Do I need trace and debug access for my Gravity application?

Not every app needs it. If you are building a simple wallet, portfolio view, or basic dashboard, standard RPC methods are often enough. If you are running indexers, debugging failed contract behavior, reviewing incidents, or doing deeper engineering analysis, trace and debug become much more useful. Gravity's current node guide explicitly adds both endpoints, so we can expose them on your Dedicated Gravity RPC node when your workload needs more than plain reads and writes.

Can I lock down access with firewall rules, private networking, and IP allowlisting?

Yes. This is one of the biggest reasons teams choose us over a generic shared API. Our dedicated RPC platform supports keeping endpoints private with firewall rules and IP allowlisting, and our dedicated infrastructure also supports private networking, VPN-style access patterns, and direct server control with root and IPMI. If your RPC endpoint is part of your security boundary, that control matters.

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.
