Private Japan Open Chain RPC Endpoints on a Dedicated Node

A Dedicated JOC RPC Node is a private Japan Open Chain node that runs on single-tenant server hardware instead of a shared public endpoint. We use dedicated infrastructure so your app, wallet, indexer, or backend gets its own CPU, RAM, storage, and network lane. That matters on JOC because the official public RPC endpoints are listed for non-commercial use, and JOC itself tells production users to run their own node or use a provider.

The difference is control, isolation, and more predictable throughput. With a shared endpoint, your traffic sits in a multi-tenant pool and performance can change when other users spike demand. With our JOC RPC Node setup, the hardware is yours, so you avoid shared throttling, keep full root access, and tune the node around your own workload through root, KVM, and IPMI.

Not in the public staking sense. Japan Open Chain is an Ethereum-compatible Layer 1 whose validators are permissioned, operated by known, approved companies rather than an open stake-to-earn role like Ethereum or Solana. What we provision is what apps and indexers actually need: a fast, dedicated full or archive RPC node running the Geth-based JOC stack, with full history available for deep lookups and analytics.

The official JOC mainnet chain ID is 81. JOC's quick-start and chain-spec pages list mainnet RPC URLs in the format https://rpc-1.japanopenchain.org:8545, with additional official endpoints also shown in the docs. For production use, we do not advise building around those public URLs. JOC states that its public endpoints are for non-commercial use and may change without notice, so we provision your own JOC RPC Node on dedicated infrastructure.

For most production teams, we would start a Dedicated JOC RPC Node at roughly 12 to 16 high-clock cores, 64GB RAM, and 2 to 4TB NVMe. That is not a fake official JOC minimum. It is our engineering starting point based on JOC running on Geth and current Geth storage guidance. Geth's own docs say disk is usually the main bottleneck and recommend high-performance SSD storage. If you expect heavy backfills or deep history, we size above that.

Server delivery and node readiness are different. The server can be provisioned first, but a usable JOC RPC Node still depends on sync time. We do not want to promise live in minutes when chain sync is the real variable. JOC's official node guide shows a Geth-based setup with install, init, and sync steps. In plain terms, we provision the server first, then bring the node online according to current sync conditions and the spec you choose.

Yes. That is exactly where this setup makes sense. A Dedicated JOC RPC Node can serve wallet reads, transaction broadcast, exchange deposit monitoring, event listeners, internal APIs, explorer-style workloads, and business backends. JOC is positioned as a public Ethereum-compatible Layer 1 suited to business and finance use cases, and our dedicated RPC servers are built around production workloads.

With unmanaged service, we give you the dedicated hardware foundation, root access, DDoS protection, and remote management access, while your team handles OS updates, client changes, hardening, monitoring, backups, and day-to-day operations. With managed service, we take on more of that operational work, including OS installation, updates, baseline hardening, monitoring, patching, and incident help within scope. Both paths run the same Dedicated JOC RPC Node hardware.

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.

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.

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.

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.
