What Teams Build On Immutable zkEVM Nodes

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

Live Game Logic

Keep gameplay-linked reads off crowded public endpoints when wallets, balances, quest checks, and reward logic must respond under load. A dedicated Immutable zkEVM node keeps player actions responsive through peak sessions.

Player Asset Views

Support player inventory screens, ownership checks, and account-linked asset views with dedicated RPC for chain access, paired with Immutable data services for richer lookups and steadier backend reads through busy hours.

Trading Flow Support

Back listing, buying, and offer-driven flows with dependable RPC for transaction paths, paired with Immutable Orderbook and webhook services for broader marketplace state. Dedicated capacity keeps confirmations steady when volume climbs.

Economy Data Pipelines

Run analytics, treasury tracking, economy dashboards, and internal reporting on dedicated infrastructure instead of mixing them into player-facing RPC traffic, so reporting never contends with live reads.

Historical Query Jobs

Handle deep backfills, older transaction lookups, and long-range reads that lighter public access is not built for. Useful when teams need broader history for audits, reports, or player support on archive-grade storage.

Launch Surge Readiness

Prepare for mint days, season drops, campaign bursts, and feature launches that spike demand across reads and writes. Single-tenant headroom absorbs the surge that lighter shared access cannot.

From Immutable zkEVM 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 Immutable zkEVM Node

    Choose full or archive cdk-erigon, and bring or host the Ethereum L1 RPC your node depends on. Pick the region closest to your players.

  2. 02

    We Provision Bare Metal

    Your single-tenant cdk-erigon node deploys on dedicated NVMe, bootstrapped from a current snapshot and tracking the Immutable sequencer, so you skip the long replay.

  3. 03

    Get Your Private Endpoint

    Receive a dedicated HTTPS + WSS JSON-RPC endpoint with unlimited requests and zero rate limits, private behind IP allowlisting and DDoS protection.

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 Immutable zkEVM 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 Immutable zkEVM 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Why would I use a dedicated Immutable zkEVM RPC node instead of the public RPC?

Use a dedicated node when the public endpoint starts limiting what your product can do. Immutable's own docs cap the public RPC at 25 requests per second and point production users toward dedicated providers. Our Dedicated Immutable zkEVM RPC Node provides single-tenant hardware, private endpoint options, and greater control over read and write paths and operational access. That matters when your app, wallet flow, or backend cannot afford random contention.

Can I run an Immutable zkEVM validator node?

Not in the staking sense. Immutable zkEVM is a Polygon-CDK zkEVM gaming rollup with a centralized sequencer, so there is no permissionless, stake-to-earn validator like Ethereum or Solana. Sequencing and proving are operated by the protocol, not by independent stakers earning yield. What we provision is a fast, dedicated full or archive RPC node, which is what game backends, indexers, and marketplaces actually need on this chain.

Do I need Ethereum L1 access to run an Immutable zkEVM RPC node?

Yes. Immutable zkEVM derives and verifies state against Ethereum, so your node needs an Ethereum L1 JSON-RPC endpoint for L1 contract reads and bridge verification used by zkEVM workflows. If that parent-chain endpoint is slow or rate-limited, your node can fall behind, which shows up as stale reads and delayed indexing. L1 endpoint quality is part of Immutable zkEVM reliability, so plan for a dependable Ethereum RPC alongside your node, or host both with us.

What is the difference between a full node and an archive node on Immutable zkEVM?

A full node is the practical default for most live applications. It is usually the right fit for current chain reads, transaction submission, and normal backend traffic. An archive-style build makes more sense when your team needs deeper historical queries, long backfills, heavier analytics, or broader retention. On our side, we size the Immutable zkEVM RPC node around the workload instead of forcing one template on every buyer, and we support full, archive, and custom node builds on dedicated hardware.

Can I get private endpoints, IP allowlisting, and firewall controls on a dedicated node?

Yes. We support dedicated RPC deployments where endpoints can be kept private with firewall rules and IP allowlisting. That lets you separate internal services, partner access, and public-facing traffic more cleanly than you can on a typical shared RPC plan. For teams comparing Immutable zkEVM RPC providers, this is one of the clearest differences between shared-access and dedicated infrastructure.

What access do I get on a dedicated node: root, KVM, IPMI, or managed-only access?

We do not lock you behind a dashboard-only model. Our dedicated RPC platform includes KVM, root, and IPMI access, and you can choose managed or unmanaged operations. That means you can stay hands-on when your team wants direct control, or lean on us for server-side help while keeping dedicated hardware underneath. This is a major reason buyers choose RedSwitches over a generic Immutable zkEVM RPC provider with limited infrastructure visibility.

How much traffic can a Dedicated Immutable zkEVM RPC Node handle?

There is no honest one-size number because traffic depends on request mix, concurrency, node type, caching behavior, WebSocket usage, and how much historical work you run beside live app traffic. We size around those variables. RedSwitches' own dedicated RPC guidance treats EVM and L2 nodes as storage-led and starts production baselines around 8+ high-clock cores, 32 to 64 GB RAM, and 2 to 4 TB NVMe, with stronger specs for archive or heavier workloads.

Can I use a dedicated node for launch days, mint events, or traffic bursts?

Yes, and that is one of the strongest reasons to move off shared access. Launch days expose every weak point in your stack at once: concurrency, burst reads, transaction pressure, and noisy neighbors. Our dedicated RPC offering is built around single-tenant hardware, 10Gbps or 25Gbps networking, metered or unmetered traffic options, DDoS protection, and deploy-by-sync-time planning. That gives your Immutable zkEVM RPC a better chance of staying steady when demand spikes.

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.
