Frankfurt, and only Frankfurt
We serve one region. That is a real limitation and it is the first thing anyone evaluating us should weigh, so it gets its own page rather than a footnote on the pricing table.
Why this city
Frankfurt carries one of the densest concentrations of Solana validator infrastructure in Europe. A large share of stake sits inside a small number of facilities there, which means a receiver in that city is close to where blocks are actually broadcast rather than close to a convenient datacentre.
For shred delivery, proximity to validators is the thing that matters. Everything else is a consequence of it.
Whether it suits you
A machine in or near Frankfurt gets about the best arrangement money can buy anywhere. Amsterdam, Paris and London are all comfortably within reach, and plenty of our thinking about where to sit came from running our own strategies against this exact feed.
Hosting near us is cheap and easy, and our hosting guide walks through the options at every budget, from a small VPS to bare metal in the same city.
