# Node Providers

## Overview

**Node providers** offer infrastructure services that allow developers to interact with blockchain networks without the need to run their own nodes. They provide **RPC (Remote Procedure Call) endpoints**, enabling applications to read from and write to blockchains efficiently.

### Public Endpoints

Public endpoints are open-access URLs suitable for development and testing. They may have rate limits and are less reliable for production use.

### Private Endpoints

Private endpoints are secured, subscription-based URLs offering higher reliability, enhanced security, and better performance, ideal for production environments.
