New service enhances DApp performance and simplifies blockchain interactions for developers.
Google Cloud has recently introduced a Blockchain Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service that is compatible with Ethereum. This service is designed to enhance the way developers interact with blockchain data and improve the performance of decentralized applications (DApps).
RPC, or Remote Procedure Call, is a protocol that allows a program to execute code on a remote server as if it were local. In the context of blockchain, RPC services are crucial for accessing and interacting with blockchain data efficiently. This new service by Google Cloud aims to provide a reliable and scalable solution for developers working with blockchain technology.
The service currently supports Ethereum's mainnet and testnet, with plans to expand to other blockchains in the future. It offers a free tier that allows up to 100 requests per second and 1 million requests per day. This makes it accessible for developers who are building Ethereum-based applications.
Google Cloud's RPC service is fully compatible with Ethereum’s JSON-RPC standard (EIP-1474), which simplifies integration for developers. This standardization ensures that developers can easily incorporate the service into their existing Ethereum-based DApps without significant changes to their codebase.
For Web3 developers, this service provides a cost-effective, scalable, and reliable way to manage blockchain interactions. By minimizing the complexities of managing node infrastructure, developers can focus more on building innovative applications rather than dealing with backend challenges.
