ERPC Adds High-Performance Solana RPC Node in London
ERPC Adds High-Performance Solana RPC Node in London
ELSOUL LABO B.V. (Headquarters: Amsterdam, The Netherlands; CEO: Fumitake Kawasaki) and Validators DAO have added a high-performance Solana RPC node in London. Equipped with a high‑clock EPYC 5th Gen CPU and more than 1 TB of DDR5 RAM, this expansion addresses the growing demand across the UK and Europe.
Thank you as always for your continued support.
Overview
The London site is designed to curb overall latency and variability in shared Solana RPC. Network distance directly translates into latency, and when high‑latency users are present on a shared node, the overall response can be affected.
By distributing high‑performance RPC nodes across as many locations as possible, we shorten round‑trip distance from each region and deliver low‑latency, stable responses even on shared endpoints.
Why London
London is a major financial hub with a strong, independent network fabric. At the same time, connectivity to continental Europe includes segments that traverse subsea cables. Even when locations appear close on a map, network distance and bandwidth can still pose challenges.
This does not only affect users in London. The impact can propagate across shared endpoints. By placing our data center in this key location and operating a high‑performance RPC node, users in London and across Europe can expect latency improvements.
Hardware and Operations
The new node adopts an EPYC 5th Gen CPU with high clocks (up to 4.8 GHz) and over 1 TB of DDR5 RAM, providing headroom for Solana’s frequent, sustained I/O and memory pressure.
Even in shared environments, abundant compute and memory reduce misses and re‑fetches. We continuously review retained data volume and delivery behavior so that responses remain stable during peak hours.
Expansion Plan
Our next 5th Gen high‑clock CPU Solana RPC nodes are planned for Tokyo and Sydney, targeted for addition within August.
The Singapore region may require a little more time, but we are aiming to open within this year. We will continue expanding sites in line with regional network distance and traffic characteristics, improving for low latency and reproducible operations on shared endpoints.
We will continue to support Solana project development globally. To help your projects succeed, we keep validating in the field every day and continue to improve with sincerity.
Getting Started and Contact
Service at the London site has already started. You can begin a free trial on the Validators DAO official Discord.
We also provide consultation on proximity deployment, latency optimization, and migration from shared to dedicated setups on the official Discord. Our team understands both Solana and networking and will support you responsibly.

Challenges ERPC Solves
We build dedicated Solana infrastructure and a zero‑distance‑oriented network to address the following challenges:
- Transaction failures and latency variability common in general‑purpose RPC environments
- Performance throttling imposed by many infrastructure providers
- The significant impact of network distance on communication quality
- The difficulty smaller projects face in accessing high‑quality infrastructure
We conduct R&D and field validation every day, continue to stabilize inventory and expand our lineup, and work to bring that value to even more projects.
Thank you for your continued support of ERPC and Validators DAO.
