// use cases

What Teams Build On Tangle Nodes

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

Restaking And AVS Operators

Tangle secures Actively Validated Services through restaked TNT. A dedicated validator or full node gives operators reliable consensus participation and service execution without shared-pool contention during heavy job load.

EVM dApp Backends

Tangle runs the Frontier EVM, so existing Ethereum dApps deploy with minimal changes. Your endpoint serves contract reads, gas estimation, and broadcast over standard Web3 tooling, avoiding shared-pool throttling on launches.

Wallet Read Backends

Wallets need fast reads and steady submission. Your Tangle endpoint serves balances, nonce checks, and broadcast over Ethereum or Substrate JSON-RPC, so a dedicated setup avoids congestion-driven timeouts during spikes.

Explorer And Indexing

Explorers and indexers run heavy historical queries nonstop. A dedicated archive node supports long-running ingestion and deep trace and debug lookups without the limits of a shared endpoint.

DeFi And Trading Bots

DeFi apps and bots create sustained reads and bursts during volatility. Your node serves price checks, state reads, and fast submissions when timing matters, where shared endpoints cause slippage and failed submits.

Private Internal RPC

Enterprises want Tangle access without exposing endpoints publicly. Restrict access by IP and network rules for internal apps and partner systems, with a clearer security posture.

// how it works

From Tangle 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 Tangle Node

    Choose a full, archive, or validator node. We run the tangle binary; tell us if you need Ethereum JSON-RPC, Substrate JSON-RPC, or both, and your region.

  2. 02

    We Provision Bare Metal

    Your single-tenant node deploys on NVMe tuned for single-thread speed (validators run SMT-disabled), snapshot-restored where available, so you skip the long cold sync.

  3. 03

    Get Your Private Endpoint

    Receive a dedicated Substrate and Ethereum JSON-RPC endpoint over HTTP and WSS 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 Tangle 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 your users and the Tangle network's peers 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 Tangle and why run a dedicated node for it?

Tangle is a standalone Substrate (Polkadot SDK) Layer 1 for restaking infrastructure and Actively Validated Services, with native token TNT and a Frontier EVM at chain ID 5845. A dedicated node gives you a private, unlimited endpoint over both Substrate and Ethereum JSON-RPC, instead of inheriting the rate limits and noisy-neighbor latency of a shared RPC pool.

Does your Tangle node expose both Ethereum and Substrate JSON-RPC?

Yes. Tangle runs the Frontier EVM, so a single node exposes the Ethereum JSON-RPC (eth, net, web3, debug, txpool, trace) for Web3.js and Ethers.js, plus the Substrate JSON-RPC (chain, state, system) for Polkadot.js. You can use either interface over HTTP or WSS on the same dedicated endpoint.

Which Tangle node type do I need: full RPC, archive RPC, or validator?

Most teams start with a full Tangle node because it serves current-state reads and transaction submission with far lower storage needs. Choose archive RPC when your product must query full history, power explorers, run deep analytics, or use EVM trace and debug methods. Choose a validator node if you want to stake TNT and participate in consensus and AVS execution.

Is Tangle an independent Layer 1, and how does that affect running a node?

Yes. Tangle is a standalone Layer 1 secured by its own NPoS validator set, not a parachain, so a node does not need an embedded relay chain. You run the tangle binary against the Tangle chain spec, which we account for in sizing and sync. Validators stake TNT and we tune the hardware (SMT disabled, fast NVMe) for steady block authoring.

What is the difference between a shared Tangle RPC provider and dedicated Tangle RPC node servers?

A shared Tangle RPC provider runs many customers on pooled infrastructure, which can create unpredictable latency during spikes plus shared rate limits and noisy-neighbor slowdowns. Dedicated Tangle RPC node servers give you single-tenant resources, your own access rules, and clearer fault boundaries. You control performance and security instead of inheriting someone else's traffic.

How long does it take to deploy a dedicated Tangle RPC node, and what affects sync time?

Provisioning is fast. The real variable is sync time, which depends on chain state, node type, storage speed, and network conditions. A full RPC usually reaches a usable state earlier than an archive setup because an archive has far more data to process. We deploy according to sync time, restoring from snapshots where available, so you are not sold a fake instant promise.

What ports do you expose for Tangle RPC and WebSocket, and can I restrict access?

You can expose the standard HTTP and WSS RPC ports used by Substrate-based nodes. We recommend exposing only what you need. Many teams restrict access to known IPs, put a reverse proxy in front, and keep admin surfaces closed. With a dedicated server, you can define firewall rules that match your risk level and traffic profile.

Can I scale CPU, RAM, and NVMe as traffic grows without changing providers?

Yes. That is a core benefit of running a dedicated Tangle RPC node on dedicated servers. You can scale up resources as load grows, add storage for archive needs, and move to higher core counts for heavy concurrency. This keeps your endpoint stable while your product grows, without rebuilding everything on a new platform.

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.
