Edge RPC - Goldsky Docs

Edge RPC provides low-latency RPC access via a multi-region CDN, with caching, automatic failover, and built-in observability. It is optimized for both indexing backends and frontend applications. Edge RPC is built on top of eRPC, an open source RPC proxy that’s been hardened by real-world usage and built by people like you.

Key features

Fastest responses: Edge infrastructure across 8+ regions delivers sub-100ms latency
Maximum resiliency: Automatic failover across multiple providers, for 99.9% uptime
Data integrity: Cross-validation prevents stale or incorrect data from reaching your app
Optimized for indexing: Archive access and batch requests tuned for high-throughput indexers
Boosted for frontend: Caching and request deduplication for responsive user experiences
Simple pricing: $5 per million requests, all methods priced equally

Transport and subscriptions

Edge RPC is served over HTTPS only: there is no WebSocket (wss://) endpoint, and eth_subscribe / eth_unsubscribe are not supported. To watch chain state, use HTTP polling with the filter methods:

eth_newBlockFilter: new blocks
eth_newFilter: logs matching an address/topic filter
eth_newPendingTransactionFilter: pending transactions
eth_getFilterChanges: poll for new results since the last call

If you need push-style streaming of blockchain data instead of RPC polling, use Turbo Pipelines or Mirror to stream events, logs, and transactions directly into your database or message queue.
