Build, migrate, or hand over your blockchain nodes. We operate the entire lifecycle.
DigitalCare designs new node infrastructure, migrates workloads from third-party RPC providers, and takes over existing node fleets. Our senior engineers manage deployment, synchronization, observability, upgrades, incidents, capacity, security, recovery, and cost throughout the infrastructure lifecycle.
We deploy and operate nodes for Ethereum, Arbitrum, and other leading networks. Unique or less common networks are assessed individually.
Start where you are. End with operated nodes.
Blockchain nodes are infrastructure. We keep them synchronized, available, secure, and up to date, whether we build them, migrate them, or inherit them.
Launch new nodes
For teams that do not yet operate their own nodes. We design and launch the infrastructure from zero.
- Workload and protocol assessment
- Architecture and capacity planning
- Provisioning, installation, and initial sync
- Infrastructure as code
- Monitoring, operational readiness, production launch
Migrate from an RPC provider
For production workloads where request-based costs, rate limits, availability, or control have become a problem.
- Analysis of current RPC traffic and cost
- Dedicated node architecture
- Parallel deployment, sync, endpoint validation
- Gradual traffic migration with rollback planning
- Cost and performance comparison
Hand over an existing fleet
For nodes that already exist, built by your team or another vendor. We take operational responsibility.
- Infrastructure and configuration audit
- Documentation of the current topology
- Monitoring, reliability, and security remediation
- Infrastructure-as-code adoption
- Upgrades, incident response, lifecycle management
Every path lands in the same place: continuous managed operations. Deployment is not the final product. The service is keeping the fleet synchronized, available, secure, and up to date.
Own the critical path.
Shared RPC services are the right place to start. At scale, the same model can create request-based bills, rate limits, limited tuning, and dependency on infrastructure you do not control. We help teams move the workloads that matter onto dedicated nodes and operate them as production systems.
- Fast to start
- Usage or request-based pricing
- Provider-defined limits and configuration
- Shared operational model
- Ideal for prototypes and non-critical workloads
We model the economics first. If your current provider is still the better option, we will say so.
From first sync to every upgrade after it.
This is the managed operations layer behind all three engagement paths: the continuous work that starts once nodes are live.
Deploy where the workload belongs.
We do not force every workload into one hosting model. The topology is chosen around latency, cost, data ownership, security boundaries, and recovery requirements.
Your cloud account or VPC
Nodes run inside your own cloud boundary. You own the accounts, the data, and the exit path.
Dedicated bare metal
For latency- and I/O-heavy nodes where dedicated hardware beats cloud economics.
DigitalCare-managed hosting
We provide and operate the environment when you want the outcome without the accounts.
Hybrid or multi-region
Mixed topologies across providers and regions when redundancy or geography demands it.
A controlled path from provider dependency to owned infrastructure.
Assess
Review traffic, RPC methods, request volume, latency, data retention, current spend, failure modes, and target networks.
Design
Choose node types, clients, regions, capacity, failover, security boundaries, observability, and the migration plan.
Deploy and migrate
Provision reproducible infrastructure, sync and validate nodes, test traffic, and move workloads with a rollback path.
Operate and improve
Monitor health, handle upgrades and incidents, review capacity and costs, and continuously improve the operational runbooks.
Five times lower access cost for a DeFi platform.
Paralax depended on a third-party RPC provider for every read and write to Arbitrum and Ethereum. DigitalCare designed and deployed a dedicated node fleet on Kubernetes, added Prometheus and Grafana monitoring, and took over end-to-end operation.

DeFi and Web3 applications
Dedicated read and write paths for workloads whose usage and reliability directly affect the product.
Wallets, indexers, and data products
Controlled node access, data-retention requirements, custom methods, and predictable capacity.
Protocols and appchains
Node lifecycle operations, environment consistency, upgrades, monitoring, and recovery procedures.
Fintech and digital assets
Private deployment options, explicit access boundaries, operational documentation, and infrastructure ownership.
A managed service with accountable engineers.
A hosted server is not a node operations service. DigitalCare’s senior engineers own the operational workflow: architecture, deployment, observability, upgrades, incidents, capacity, and cost. Automation handles repeatable work; engineers remain responsible for production decisions.
DigitalCare’s internal AI agents, Metatron and Verdict, assist with context gathering, anomaly detection, and controlled remediation, while senior engineers supervise production changes.
FAQ8 questionsCloseOpen
When should we move from a shared RPC provider to dedicated nodes?
Usually when request-based cost, rate limits, latency, availability, retention, custom configuration, or data control becomes material. We assess the workload and compare both models before recommending a migration.
Can you deploy nodes in our cloud account?
Yes. The architecture can run in the client’s cloud or VPC, on dedicated bare metal, in DigitalCare-managed hosting, or as a hybrid topology.
Which node types and networks do you operate?
We deploy and operate nodes for the leading networks: Ethereum, Arbitrum, and other major ecosystems, with published production proof for dedicated Arbitrum and Ethereum fleets. Running a less common or custom network? Ask us, we assess each workload individually.
How do you handle upgrades and hard forks?
We track required client versions, validate compatibility, plan rollout and rollback, and upgrade the fleet through a controlled change process.
How do you monitor node health?
Monitoring can cover protocol and infrastructure signals such as sync state, block height, peers, RPC latency and errors, disk growth, resource usage, and endpoint availability.
Can you migrate us without a long outage?
The migration plan can run new nodes in parallel, validate them against the existing provider, shift traffic gradually, and keep a rollback path until the new fleet is stable.
Do you manage validator keys or staking?
Validator and staking scope, including key-management responsibility, is agreed per engagement. Talk to us about your specific setup: we never take custody by default.
How is the service priced?
Pricing depends on the network, node type, regions, storage and retention, traffic, recovery design, security requirements, and agreed operating model. Start with a workload assessment.
Discuss your node infrastructure.
Launching new nodes, migrating from an RPC provider, or handing over an existing fleet: we will assess the workload and tell you which model makes sense.
Migrating? Show us your RPC bill and node workload, and we will compare shared RPC, dedicated hosting, and managed node operations for your traffic.
