Clover Dedicated Nodes & RPC Infrastructure | OnFinality

Clover is a Substrate-based smart contract platform built for the Polkadot ecosystem, designed to provide a seamless multi-chain DeFi experience. It offers native interoperability, cross-chain integrations, and full EVM compatibility, allowing Ethereum developers to port existing smart contracts onto Polkadot infrastructure. Key products include the Clover extension wallet, Cloverscan block explorer, and a 2-way peg bridge between Ethereum and Polkadot.

Why Run a Clover Node?

Developers and infrastructure teams run Clover nodes to:

• Submit transactions and query on-chain data via JSON-RPC and WebSocket endpoints.
• Access historical state with archive nodes for analytics, block explorers, and DeFi dashboards.
• Support collator operations for parachain block production.
• Ensure low-latency, reliable access for production dApps, wallets, and backend services.

Clover Node Types on OnFinality

OnFinality provides managed dedicated nodes for Clover, eliminating the operational overhead of self-hosting. Available node types:

• Full Node: Pruned state, suitable for wallets and current state queries.
• Archive Node: Full historical data, required for explorers and historical analysis.
• Collator Node: For parachain block production and staking operations.

All nodes are deployed on globally distributed, multi-cloud infrastructure with built-in monitoring, automatic upgrades, and 24/7 support.
