RPC & Infrastructure

Node providers, indexers, and data APIs.

Helius is the developer default. Triton serves protocols needing dedicated capacity.

Choosing an RPC provider is one of the first infrastructure decisions for any Solana project. Helius is the most developer-focused option: beyond standard RPC endpoints it provides enhanced APIs for the Digital Asset Standard (DAS), webhooks for on-chain events, and priority fee estimation — all purpose-built for Solana. QuickNode is a multi-chain provider with reliable Solana support and an add-on marketplace. Triton (RPC Pool) serves major protocols requiring dedicated, low-latency access.

For indexing and querying on-chain data, Shyft provides transaction parsing and webhooks, while The Graph supports Solana subgraphs via GraphQL.

For teams running their own infrastructure, Geyser plugins provide a validator-level interface for streaming real-time account and transaction updates. Yellowstone gRPC is the high-performance implementation of this interface used in production by Helius, Triton, and others.
