Private Movement RPC Endpoints on a Dedicated Node

A Dedicated Movement RPC Node is a private, single-tenant server that runs Movement node software for your traffic alone. You use it for chain reads, transaction submission, and backend workloads without sharing CPU, RAM, or storage with other tenants. Movement's docs also state that follower nodes were introduced for RPC-serving workloads, which makes dedicated infrastructure a strong fit for serious app traffic.

Public Movement endpoints are shared and may be rate-limited. A dedicated node gives you your own hardware, your own access rules, and a cleaner path for scaling reads, writes, and internal services. In practice, that means fewer surprises during traffic spikes, more control over exposure, and less dependence on public endpoint policy changes.

Not in the staking sense. Movement is a Move-based Ethereum L2 where a Decentralized Shared Sequencer orders transactions and state settles to Ethereum, so there is no permissionless, stake-to-earn validator like Ethereum or Solana for apps to provision. The node that apps and indexers actually need is the follower node Movement introduced for RPC-serving workloads. That is what we provision: a fast, dedicated full (follower) or archive RPC node on single-tenant hardware.

Yes. As an Ethereum L2, Movement derives its state from data published to a data-availability layer and settled to Ethereum L1, so your node connects to those parent endpoints to stay in sync. If they are slow, your node can fall behind, which shows up as stale reads and delayed indexing. You can bring your own L1 and DA endpoints, or host them on dedicated servers with us in the same region for tighter latency and steadier catch-up.

Today, Movement's live docs center Aptos-style /v1 REST access plus GraphQL indexing for richer and more historical queries. If your workload depends on JSON-RPC or WebSocket-style patterns, validate the exact network and client path before deployment. For most buyers, the safest way to scope a Dedicated Movement RPC Node is around REST reads, transaction flow, and indexing support first.

For lighter private RPC use, we treat 8 cores, 32GB RAM, and 2TB NVMe as the floor. For production traffic, we start at 16 cores, 64GB RAM, and 4TB NVMe, because that is also the follower-node guidance. RedSwitches then gives you room to pair that with 10Gbps or 25Gbps networking and metered or unmetered bandwidth based on sync and traffic shape.

Yes, we can provision archive-capable dedicated infrastructure for historical Movement queries based on what your product needs. Movement's docs separate full nodes from archival nodes and note that archival deployments are required for full-history access and indexers that need complete transaction history from genesis.

We do not sell a fake instant-live story for node infrastructure. We provision the server, install the required client on request, and deploy according to sync time. The final timeline depends on node mode, chain state, storage speed, and whether you are bringing up a lighter full-node path or a deeper historical build.

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.
