Solana Yellowstone gRPC

What is Solana Yellowstone gRPC

Yellowstone gRPC is a high-performance Solana blockchain plugin that extends Geyser infrastructure for enterprise-level real-time data streaming capabilities. Both gRPC and JSON-RPC protocols are supported by the plugin, with fine-grained control of blockchain data monitoring in terms of low latency and high reliability given to developers. It is a part of Project Yellowstone's end-to-end blockchain infrastructure offering and provides high-performance data streaming for on-chain activity monitoring, transaction tracking, and account state querying at its best.

Benefits of using Solana Yellowstone gRPC

Web3 developers enjoy significant performance advantages with Yellowstone, including very-low-latency data streaming that is superior to typical WebSocket implementations for real-time blockchain monitoring. The plugin provides enterprise-level reliability through type-safe gRPC interfaces, which allows the developers to build strong applications that can handle high-throughput transaction monitoring and account state updates. Yellowstone also includes better filtering capabilities and zstd compression support, which implies that developers can minimize bandwidth usage while maintaining real-time data accuracy for mission-critical decentralized applications.
