Validation Cloud joined DIN, a decentralized RPC-as-a-service initiative to enhance the accessibility, reliability, and efficiency of Web3 data access by enabling developers to securely connect to Ethereum and other blockchain networks. This blog will give you an overview of node infrastructure, DIN, and why Validation Cloud joined DIN.

What is Node or RPC-as-a-Service?

In simple terms, a “node” is a computer connected to the blockchain, which helps by verifying, storing, and updating all of the transactions that happen across a particular network. This setup ensures that information is distributed across many points rather than centralized in one location, making the network more resilient and less prone to failure or attack. The collective effort of these nodes helps maintain the integrity and efficiency of the blockchain, ensuring that it operates seamlessly. Essentially, node infrastructure is the fundamental component that supports the operation and security of the blockchain network. Node-as-a-service enables developers to deploy, run, and scale decentralized applications without managing the underlying infrastructure, simplifying development processes and reducing operational overhead. To learn more about this infrastructure that supports the millions of users within the blockchain ecosystem, read our blog.

What is DIN?

DIN, or the Decentralized Infrastructure Network, is a decentralized Remote Procedure Call (dRPC)-as-a-service offering developed by Infura. This initiative aims to enhance the accessibility, reliability, and efficiency of Web3 data access by enabling developers to securely connect to Ethereum and other blockchain networks. DIN seeks to foster a decentralized internet infrastructure, providing a robust and efficient way for developers to interact with multiple blockchain APIs. By decentralizing the RPC layer — critical infrastructure that allows for the communication between various computer programs across the blockchain — DIN aims to enhance the scalability and accessibility of blockchain applications. By supporting a multi-chain world, DIN makes Web3 technologies more accessible and reliable for developers.

Why Validation Cloud Joined DIN

Validation Cloud joined DIN to enhance access to RPC services and support more users building critical applications across Web3. DIN allows Validation Cloud to join other RPC providers to support a better user experience for builders across even more networks. Starting in early April, Validation Cloud will be supporting BNB and Avalanche on DIN.
