Google Cloud has announced the launch of a new Blockchain RPC service designed to enhance developers' capabilities in interacting with blockchain data. This solution aims to ensure reliability and security for building blockchain applications.

Importance of RPC for blockchain applications

Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is crucial for applications to communicate with and fetch data from the blockchain. Existing RPC solutions can often be unreliable, causing apps to slow down or stop working.

Features of Google Cloud's Blockchain RPC Service

Google Cloud's new Blockchain RPC service allows developers to leverage Google's large-scale infrastructure to power their blockchain apps reliably and securely. The service caters to both small startups and large companies that require robust performance and security.

Future plans and support for additional blockchains

Currently, the service supports Ethereum's mainnet and testnets. In the coming year, Google plans to add support for additional blockchains, adhering to the Ethereum JSON-RPC standard, making integration straightforward for developers. The free tier allows up to 100 requests per second, making it ideal for building real-time applications that need a lot of data.

Google's technological expertise provides a simple, cost-effective, and scalable solution for Web3 developers, helping the next generation of applications to grow and thrive.
