What Teams Build On Linea Nodes

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

High-Frequency DeFi Protocols

Power a DEX or lending protocol with a dedicated Linea node that holds steady under heavy read and submission load. Reserved CPU, RAM, and NVMe I/O keep high-frequency strategies from breaking on shared throttling during volatile blocks.

NFT Marketplace

Handle traffic spikes during high-profile mints with single-tenant resources. Allowance checks, reveal pipelines, and contract reads stay responsive under peak load, preventing the failed transactions that come with rate-limited public pools.

Cross-Chain Bridge Operations

Move assets between Ethereum and Linea with a dedicated node that holds steady uptime for bridge and verification systems. Consistent event tracking and confirmation monitoring reduce missed events and reconciliation lag.

GameFi Application Backend

Support thousands of concurrent players with low-latency state updates and fast confirmations. Dedicated capacity keeps gameplay smooth during peak usage, where shared endpoints would throttle the constant on-chain reads and writes game loops depend on.

Enterprise Blockchain Solutions

Deploy corporate applications on Linea's EVM-equivalent zkEVM with infrastructure tuned for security and compliance. Root access, custom firewall rules, and isolated hardware give you the control enterprise workloads and audits demand.

dApp Development & Testing

Accelerate development with a dedicated environment that mirrors mainnet conditions for accurate benchmarking. A private node gives predictable behavior and no shared-pool noise, so test results reflect real throughput, not another tenant's traffic.

// how it works

From Linea 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 Linea Node

    Choose full or archive on linea-besu, and pick the region closest to your users. Tell us your query depth so we size RAM and NVMe to match.

  2. 02

    We Provision Bare Metal

    Your single-tenant linea-besu node deploys on dedicated NVMe, snap-synced from a current snapshot, so you skip the long cold sync.

  3. 03

    Get Your Private Endpoint

    Receive a dedicated HTTPS + WSS RPC URL 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 Linea 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 Linea 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.

// 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.

What is a dedicated Linea RPC node server?

A dedicated Linea RPC node server is a high-performance setup optimized specifically for Linea's zkEVM. Unlike shared solutions, you get isolated hardware resources, custom configurations, and ultra-fast response times for your Web3 applications. Your apps send JSON-RPC requests to your own node, not a public endpoint pooled across other customers. We typically deliver your server in 10 minutes.

Can I run a Linea validator node?

Not in the staking sense. Linea is a Consensys zkEVM L2 with a centralized sequencer, so there is no permissionless, stake-to-earn validator like Ethereum or Solana, and no consensus to participate in by running a node. What you run is an RPC node that follows the chain and serves JSON-RPC. What we provision is a fast, dedicated full or archive RPC node, which is what apps, indexers, and bots actually need.

Do I need Ethereum L1 access to run a Linea node?

No, not to serve JSON-RPC. A Linea node runs linea-besu and snap-syncs its world state from other Linea peers, the same way a normal EVM node bootstraps, so it does not depend on an Ethereum L1 RPC for standard operation. An Ethereum L1 endpoint is optional: linea-besu uses it only on advanced nodes to track when batches are proven and finalized on L1. Full and archive RPC nodes serve reads and submissions without it.

Do you provide the optional Ethereum L1 endpoint for finalization tracking?

Yes, if you want it. Most full and archive RPC nodes do not need one. If you run an advanced node that tracks L1 finalization, you can connect your own Ethereum endpoint or run Ethereum on dedicated servers with us, placed in the same region for tighter latency. We can scope the setup based on your traffic and query depth.

What are the hardware requirements for a dedicated Linea node?

Linea node performance depends heavily on the server hardware. We suggest a high-performance, multi-core processor (16 cores or more, AMD EPYC preferred), at least 64 GB of RAM, and enterprise NVMe storage. A full node currently needs roughly 0.5 TB and grows slowly; an archive node needs around 3.87 TB and grows about 2.84 GB per day, so it wants more RAM and far more disk than a full node because it retains deep historical state.

Do I need a full node or an archive node for my use case?

Most production apps work on a full node. It serves current chain state and standard calls like eth_getLogs, eth_call, and receipts while keeping storage manageable. Choose an archive node when you need historical state at older blocks for analytics, explorers, audits, or deep debugging with debug_traceTransaction. Archive costs more because storage and query load grow fast. If you are unsure, start with a full node and upgrade when query depth demands it.

Which Linea JSON-RPC methods are available, and is tracing supported?

Your node exposes the standard Linea JSON-RPC surface: block and chain info like eth_blockNumber and eth_chainId, account and transaction calls like eth_getBalance, eth_call, eth_getTransactionReceipt, and eth_sendRawTransaction, plus eth_getLogs for events. Debugging and tracing methods such as debug_traceTransaction, debug_traceBlockByNumber, callTracer, and prestateTracer are supported. On a dedicated server you control which modules you enable, and many teams run a separate node for heavy tracing so it does not impact production RPC.

How fast can you deploy my dedicated Linea node?

We provision from current snapshots, so a fully synced Linea RPC node is typically live in about 10 minutes rather than requiring days of synchronization and configuration. Archive sync takes longer because it stores far more historical state. We use the official linea-besu repositories and files to avoid issues from outdated third-party software, and you receive a working private endpoint, not an empty server.

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.
