Archive Blockchain Data

Real-time & backfills at any scale.

Any configuration, any needs — from global availability to beefed up, dedicated, and powerful nodes to match your backend instance both in resources & location. And much more.

Dedicated backfills

Have a lot of data to backfill for a number of chains starting from the genesis block to today? Dedicated nodes will serve you best and you won’t get charged for every request — just for the raw compute & storage to fill up your warehouse tanks as fast as possible.

Flexible access options

Starting with the Growth plan, unlock fast archive data access on our Global Node. Need to blitz through a historical backfill? Add a Dedicated Node for peak refill speed. Running heavy, non‑stop analytics? The Unlimited Node tier keeps the firehose open.

Node software to match your needs

Have your backend configured for one EVM network and switching to a different one comes back with missing call method? We have different node clients available for you to match your setup the best.

Any node configuration

Have a particularly hungry eth_call to get the data the fastest and in larger amounts but hitting the gas cap? Or need a far bigger range of blocks for eth_getLogs and eth_newFilter?

We’ll configure any of that and so much more for you so you can win the Web3 data race.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an archive node?

An archive node stores the entire history of a blockchain, including all past states and balances at every block. This allows developers to query any historical data point — not just the latest state — which is essential for explorers, analytics tools, and historical audits.

What is the difference between a full node and an archive node?

A full node keeps the latest blockchain state and verifies new blocks, but prunes older data to save storage.
An archive node, on the other hand, preserves every historical state since genesis. It can answer queries about any past block or transaction, making it crucial for analytics, backtesting, and debugging smart contracts.

What are the archive node requirements?

Running an archive node requires significantly more storage and compute than a full node. Depending on the chain, this can range from several terabytes to tens of terabytes of SSD storage, high network throughput, and reliable hardware to handle continuous synchronization.

How to get the archive node RPC endpoint?

You can get a reliable and fast archive node RPC endpoint by creating a free Chainstack account and deploying an archive node for your preferred network. Once deployed, the endpoint URL is available in your project dashboard and can be used directly in your applications or analytics tools.

How to run the archive node?

You can either deploy an archive node on Chainstack with one click, or run it manually using the blockchain client software. Manual deployment requires downloading the full blockchain history and maintaining synchronization, which can take days and consume large amounts of storage. Using Chainstack automates this process and ensures consistent uptime and reliability.
