Sharded Blockchain Development Environment

A production-ready local testnet for building and stress-testing applications that operate across multiple shards. Simulate real-world conditions for cross-shard messaging, state synchronization, and transaction finality before mainnet deployment.

overview
RELIABLE FOUNDATION

Blockchain Infrastructure for FinTechs

Enterprise-grade node infrastructure and RPC services with 99.9% uptime SLA for financial applications.

We provide the mission-critical infrastructure your FinTech product depends on. Our globally distributed nodes on EVM chains (Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum) and Solana ensure sub-second RPC response times and zero-downtime deployments.

  • Guaranteed Performance: 99.9% uptime SLA with real-time health monitoring and automated failover.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Infrastructure designed for SOC 2 readiness and secure, auditable data access.
  • Predictable Scaling: Transparent pricing with no surprise costs; scale from prototype to millions of users.

Focus on your core product logic. We manage the complex, costly blockchain infrastructure—reducing your operational overhead by up to 70% and accelerating your time-to-market.

ENGINEERED FOR SCALE

Core Capabilities of Our Sharded Dev Environment

Our environment provides the isolated, production-ready infrastructure needed to build and test high-throughput dApps without the complexity of managing shards.

01

Isolated Shard Instances

Spin up dedicated, sandboxed shard environments in minutes. Each instance provides a clean EVM-compatible chain for focused development and testing, eliminating cross-shard interference during the build phase.

Cross-Shard Messaging Simulator

Test and debug cross-shard transactions in a controlled setting. Our simulator replicates real network latency and finality delays, ensuring your dApp's logic handles asynchronous communication correctly before mainnet deployment.

State Snapshot & Forking

Capture the exact state of any shard at any block. Fork from a snapshot to test upgrades, simulate attacks, or replay transactions, drastically reducing debugging and QA cycles.

Why Build with a Dedicated Sharded Testnet

Move beyond public testnet limitations. A dedicated, production-like sharded environment is essential for validating performance, security, and user experience at scale before mainnet launch.

01

Production-Identical Performance

Test against real-world conditions with a dedicated, isolated shard that mirrors mainnet latency, gas costs, and block times. Eliminate "it works on testnet" surprises.

Isolated Security & Privacy

Run confidential stress tests and security audits without exposing your code or transaction patterns to competitors on public networks. Your intellectual property stays private.

Deterministic Cross-Shard Testing

Validate complex cross-shard transactions, asset transfers, and message passing logic in a controlled multi-shard setup. Ensure atomicity and consistency for your dApp's core workflows.

PREDICTABLE, TRANSPARENT, AND SCALABLE

Our Delivery Process: From Setup to Integration

We deliver a production-ready sharded environment in weeks, not months. Our standardized process, honed across 50+ deployments, ensures zero surprises, complete transparency, and a seamless handover to your engineering team.

01

Architecture & Environment Design

We design your multi-shard architecture based on your specific throughput, data locality, and consensus requirements. This includes defining shard count, validator sets, cross-shard communication protocols, and selecting the optimal client (Geth, Erigon, Nethermind).

Infrastructure Provisioning & Automation

We provision and configure all cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Azure) using Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform). This includes automated deployment of node clusters per shard, load balancers, monitoring stacks (Prometheus/Grafana), and high-availability setups.
