How We Achieved the Lowest Solana RPC Latency in the Industry
GetBlock.io didn't just claim the top spot — we earned it. Out of 200+ RPC providers worldwide, GetBlock.io ranks #1 for Solana RPC latency in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, independently verified by CompareNodes.
This wasn't luck. It was a deliberate, layer-by-layer engineering effort spanning hardware selection, data center placement, networking architecture, and deep OS and node-level tuning.
In this session, we'll open the hood and walk through exactly how it was done:
Hardware — the specific choices that matter at the millisecond scale
Data center geography — why location is a latency decision
Networking — routing, peering, and reducing hops
Linux kernel & OS networking stack tweaks — squeezing every millisecond from the system
Solana client tuning — node software configuration that most operators overlook
Solana shred streaming — how we get block data before everyone else
Blockchain Delivery Networks — the CDN equivalent for on-chain data
DoubleZero — what's coming next and why it matters
Whom does it matter? To high-frequency traders, quants, on-chain market makers, sniping trading bots, and everyone in between.
This is a rare, unfiltered technical breakdown from Vasily Rudomanov, who has spent 25+ years in IT, cloud infrastructure, and data center operations — and has now applied that expertise to Web3.
