What can I run on Solana with Supanode?
Supanode runs the full Solana stack: JSON-RPC, Yellowstone gRPC streaming, ShredStream Raw over UDP, a stake-weighted TPU Sender for transaction landing, a ClickHouse DEX indexer, and dedicated single-tenant nodes. Reads, live streaming, transaction sending, and analytics are all covered from a Frankfurt edge.
How do I get access to Solana on Supanode?
Solana RPC, gRPC, and WebSocket plans are self-serve: sign in to the Supanode portal with a Solana wallet, top up in USDC, pick a tier and copy your token. ShredStream, the indexer, TPU Sender, and dedicated nodes start in the same portal and our team sets them up. RPC, gRPC, and WebSocket authenticate by that token; ShredStream is a UDP push to a destination IP:Port you give us; the indexer uses ClickHouse credentials plus an x-token.
Which Solana plan should I start with?
Bundle plans run from STARTER to PROFESSIONAL, with RPS from 15 to 500 and TPS from 5 to 100; gRPC connections scale from 1 to 50. The indexer and ShredStream are flat-rate monthly products. For unlimited, single-tenant capacity, a dedicated node is priced by quote within 24 hours.
Does Supanode support stake-weighted transaction landing on Solana?
Yes. The Supanode TPU Sender routes transactions over stake-weighted QoS direct to the slot leader and fans out to the Jito Bundle Engine in parallel, landing whichever path arrives first. It is a drop-in endpoint priced per transaction via the tip.
Does Solana have a mempool like Ethereum?
No — Gulf Stream forwards transactions straight to the current and upcoming slot leaders instead of holding them in a public pool. Under load, inbound bandwidth at the leader is allocated by validator stake (SWQoS), and unstaked submissions are shed first. That is why Supanode lands transactions over the stake-weighted TPU Sender path.
What is the fastest way to receive real-time Solana data?
ShredStream — raw block fragments over UDP at 0.4 ms p99 delivery, before downstream re-emission. Most teams are better served by Yellowstone gRPC at p99 ~3.8 ms from Frankfurt: server-side filters and standard protobuf tooling, while raw shreds require decoding Turbine data yourself.
Is there a free trial on Solana products?
Yes — up to 24 hours, no card, on most products: Bundles (RPC, WebSocket, gRPC), ShredStream, and the Indexer. Dedicated nodes are built per order, so they run on a quote instead of a trial. Every trial starts in the Supanode portal: self-serve for Bundles, activated by our team for the others.
Provisioning is hands-on.
Start in the portal and our engineers set up the rest - endpoint, token, tuning, sized to your Solana workload.
