Helius Launches LaserStream for Ultra-Fast Solana Data

LaserStream is designed to go beyond traditional node setups. It delivers on-chain data—like transactions, accounts, blocks, and more—straight to your application with ultra-low latency and top-tier reliability.

Much like Coinbase Cloud’s gRPC tools, LaserStream connects directly to Solana’s network leaders, tapping into live data as it’s produced. But it’s not just fast. LaserStream is also smart, with features built specifically for developers who can’t afford to miss a beat.

Built for Speed, Built for Scale

LaserStream isn’t your average Solana RPC node. Traditional nodes are great for querying data, but they fall short when it comes to real-time needs. LaserStream solves this by offering a streaming-first architecture. Take the Historical Replay feature. If your app loses connection, you won’t lose data. LaserStream lets you backfill missed information by choosing a starting slot, ensuring continuity and accuracy. It’s a safety net that most other systems just don’t provide.

Another standout is Multi-Node Reliability. Instead of relying on a single connection, LaserStream streams from multiple nodes at once. This means if one node goes down, your app keeps running smoothly. For developers building financial tools, games, or analytics platforms on Solana, that’s a big deal.

LaserStream also adapts to your needs. It supports a variety of protocols, allowing teams to tailor performance for mobile apps, cloud deployments, or on-prem solutions. And with advanced filtering, developers can fine-tune their data streams by account, transaction type, or even commitment level—letting them zero in on just the data they care about.

Meeting the Moment in Real-Time Blockchain

Real-time blockchain data is in high demand. In a recent report by Electric Capital, over 20,000 developers were building in Web3 in 2024. Many of them are on Solana, which boasts high throughput and low fees. But building responsive apps—like NFT marketplaces, wallets, or trading bots—means having access to accurate, live data.

Take the recent growth of on-chain gaming on Solana. These games rely on instant feedback for actions like trades or upgrades. With LaserStream’s low latency and automatic reconnects, players get seamless in-game experiences—even during network hiccups.
