Parallel RPC & Dedicated Node Infrastructure | OnFinality

Parallel Network Overview

Parallel is a decentralized lending, staking, and borrowing protocol built on the Polkadot ecosystem. It enables token holders and projects to put idle capital to work through its Lending Protocol and Staking Protocol, which introduces xDOT—a cross-alliance staking derivative. As a Polkadot parachain, Parallel benefits from shared security and interoperability within the ecosystem.

Why Use Parallel RPC?

Developers building on Parallel need reliable RPC endpoints to read blockchain data, submit transactions, and connect backend services. Whether you are running a DeFi dApp, a wallet, an analytics tool, or a bot, a stable RPC connection is critical for production workloads.

OnFinality Parallel Dedicated Nodes

OnFinality provides managed dedicated node infrastructure for Parallel. With a dedicated node, you get:

• Full control over the node configuration and resources.
• High availability with monitoring and automatic failover.
• Archive and trace support for deep historical data queries.
• Scalability to handle growing traffic without rate limits.

Dedicated nodes are ideal for production dApps, collators, and any application requiring consistent performance.

How to Connect to Parallel with OnFinality

1. Create or sign in to your OnFinality account.
2. Select Parallel from the supported networks list.
3. Deploy a dedicated node or create an API endpoint (if available).
4. Test the endpoint using the example method chain_getBlock.
5. Monitor request usage, errors, and limits before moving critical traffic.
