Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between full and archive nodes?
Full nodes contain current blockchain state, while archive nodes store complete historical data. Archive nodes require more storage but enable deep historical analysis.
How does security compare to public RPC endpoints?
Blockchain Node Engine provides isolated endpoints with TLS encryption, DDoS protection, and customizable access controls – significantly more secure than public alternatives.
Can I change node types after deployment?
Yes, nodes can be upgraded/downgraded between types. The service maintains your endpoint during transitions to prevent application disruption.
