GetBlock launches Solana RPC endpoints in Singapore

GetBlock, a Web3 infrastructure provider for mission-critical blockchain apps, has expanded Solana Shared Node endpoints to a new hosting region: Singapore.

This rollout complements our existing Solana infrastructure in Frankfurt and New York, now bringing RPC access physically closer to builders in Asia.

TL;DR

Shared Node Solana service is GetBlock’s multi-tenant, managed infrastructure that users access via their authenticated endpoint URLs — the easiest way to get production-ready Solana RPC.

GetBlock starts offering Solana Shared Node endpoints from a Singapore-based cluster, helping reduce latency and improve performance for Solana builders in the region.

Endpoints are now hosted in three regions: Europe (Frankfurt), the US (New York), and Asia (Singapore). Users choose the hosting region when creating endpoints in the dashboard.

Available interfaces: Solana standard JSON‑RPC, MEV‑protected JSON-RPC, and WebSocket.

For workload outgrowing shared RPC, GetBlock continues offering dedicated Solana setups –a full or archive node deployed on a private server (or cluster) with the same multi-regional coverage but deeper customization options. Talk with GetBlock’s infra team if you want to explore a setup like this for your app.

GetBlock Solana RPC endpoints now hosted in Asia

GetBlock Shared Node service users can now create and access Solana endpoints hosted in Singapore. All requests sent to this endpoint URL will be handled by GetBlock’s Asia-based infrastructure.

For developers using our RPC services, this means:

Lower network latency for users and backends located in APAC, since requests hit an in-region cluster instead of routing to Europe or the US.​

Even more predictable performance during peak traffic thanks to regional load distribution.

Easy endpoint setup with a simple region toggle in the dashboard and one click to deploy.

Singapore endpoints expose the same Solana interfaces:

JSON-RPC for standard Solana methods

MEV-protected JSON-RPC powered by Merkle, which routes transactions through a private mempool for protection against frontrunning and other MEV risks​

WebSocket for real-time subscriptions to slots, signatures, and account changes

This upgrade aligns Solana Shared Node coverage with the multi-region footprint already available for Dedicated nodes, where EU / US / Asia deployment has been a core offering.

App builder can now deploy separate Solana endpoints per region (EU/US/Asia) and route users to the nearest one at the application or infra level, without running any of that regional Solana infrastructure themselves.

Faster Solana RPC: Performance and latency improvements

The Singapore launch for Solana fits into a larger push to make GetBlock’s RPC access genuinely global and fast by placing infrastructure closer to the end user. Throughout the year, we’ve been extending both Shared and Dedicated node coverage across Europe, North America, and Asia for supported chains. 

Global coverage matters most when it translates into better real-world performance. For Solana in particular, independent performance tracking confirms GetBlock is a leading Solana RPC provider in Europe, achieving latency near 20 ms – faster than any other tracked service in the region.

We’ve proven we can be the fastest in Europe and the Americas. By extending Solana Shared Nodes to Singapore, GetBlock aims to replicate this low-latency profile for the Asia-Pacific region as well. 

How to start using Singapore Solana endpoints

Endpoint setup flow from the GetBlock user dashboard now includes Singapore as an extra server location when generating a new Solana RPC URL:

1

While on the Shared Nodes tab, click on Get endpoint

2

Choose Solana from the list of supported protocols 

3

Select the API (JSON-RPC / WebSocket / MEV-protected)

4

Set the data center region to Singapore (or Frankfurt, or New York) 

5

Get your Solana RPC endpoint, ready to use immediately

Shared Solana access is available starting from the free tier and is easily upgradeable to higher-performance plans with increasingly more throughput and resources – this Black Friday, you can lock in those paid tiers with up to 60% off. 

Pro tip: If you need guaranteed isolation, deterministic performance, or Solana devnet support, explore our Dedicated Node tab. 

Multi-regional, performance-first Solana RPC

This update is a relatively small technical change – one more data center region for Solana Shared Nodes. However, it matters a lot for latency-sensitive use cases like:

Trading, DeFi, and MEV-sensitive applications that need faster round-trip times between users, bots, and Solana RPC;

Consumer apps and games serving Asian users, where latency can directly affect UX, page load times, and real-time interactions.

Try it now: sign in, configure a Singapore endpoint in a few clicks, and compare performance to your existing endpoints.

If you need custom Solana infra (e.g., archive nodes, clustering, modified node builds, extra interfaces and plugins), request a Dedicated node and coordinate tuning with the GetBlock team via our contact form

The bottom line is: Shared nodes give easy, low-friction API access, while Dedicated setups add hands-on engineering support – both now aligned on regional coverage.
