    4. On September 17, Google Cloud announced the launch of a new service that allows decentralized applications to interact with blockchain networks. The service supports the Ethereum mainnet and testnets, providing a cost-effective way to manage node infrastructure.

    What is RPC and its role in blockchain

    A Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is a software protocol that enables one program to request a service from another program located on a different network. In the context of blockchain, RPCs are crucial for decentralized applications (DApps) to interact with blockchain data, handling tasks like transaction validation, data retrieval, and node communication.

    RPC reliability issues and solutions

    RPC reliability has been a persistent issue in the blockchain sector. Delays or errors in RPCs can affect the functioning of DApps, which often need to handle transactions and data requests instantaneously. High network traffic or sudden spikes in transaction volumes often cause disruptions, as seen in the past with Ethereum’s layer-2 solution ZkSync, and blockchains like Solana and Manta. Google Cloud’s RPC service aims to solve these issues by leveraging its infrastructure for better reliability.

    Google Cloud’s RPC service provides fast response times and aligns with the Ethereum Improvement Proposal 1474 standards, which encouraged us to integrate it into our system.Kyle Quintal, Head of Engineering at web3 analytics firm 0xArc

    Google Cloud's plans and further steps

    Google Cloud's RPC service is fully compatible with the JSON-RPC standard, allowing Ethereum developers to integrate it with their applications with minimal code modifications. It also offers a free tier, allowing up to 100 requests per second and 1 million requests per day, supporting real-time and data-heavy applications. Google Cloud plans to extend support to more blockchains in the coming year. This new initiative is part of Google Cloud’s broader strategy of deepening its presence in the blockchain sector, including collaborations with projects like EigenLayer, Aptos, Flare, and Polygon.

    Google Cloud's new RPC service is now available globally in preview, with plans to extend support to more blockchains in the coming year.
