Welcome to cardinate.io
It’s all about Web3 services
Disrupting the web3 industry by providing fast, reliable, and real independent API and node services for blockchains.
Infrastructure
Infrastructure that makes a Difference
We are originally IT system integrators and software developers specializing in IT service and providing business since 2004. For this purpose, we operate our own enterprise cloud infrastructure distributed over several data centers in europe (Germany).
However, since we have been in this business for a very long time, we know that individual components and services can fail at any time, even basic functions such as power supply and air conditioning can fail, which is why we operate our core infrastructure exclusively in Tier certified data centers with redundant USV protected power supply and N+1 air conditioning systems. Our Core components like routers, firewalls, switches, server- and storage-systems are fully redundant too.
We also have our own IPv4- and IPv6-address ranges, which we announce via BGP internet protocol to ensure geo-redundant connectivity of the systems we operate.
We operate our own cloud infrastructure with the following advantages:
- Autonomous System (AS) and IP address ranges (RIPE NCC member)
- full mesh BGP Core routers with DoS/DDoS traffic mitigation solution
- high performance JUNIPER MX routing- and QFX switching infrastructure
- high performance FUJITSU compute- and NetApp storage systems for nodes and API services
- high performance FUJITSU and SUPERMICRO bare-metal servers for validators and collators
- backup and disaster recovery solutions & systems
- Ansible deployment and automation
- geo-redundant infastructure, distributed across several data centers in europe (Germany)
- 24x7 infrastructure monitoring with Checkmk, Prometheus and Grafana
About Us
We have been in IT since 2001, starting in the Web 1.0 world and compiling Linux systems ourself (Kernel 2.2), quickly realizing that IT and network infrastructure is our strength.
Already in 2004 we have been operating our own linux routers, switches and LAMP servers in data centers.
Since 2015 we operate our own autonomous system (AS) and geo-redundant data center infrastructure in the center of Europe and can provide fast reliable services that are completely independent.
So we really support the decentralized approach of the WEB 3.0 movement, because our operations, IP connectivity and server systems are definitely not depending on one of the major centralized cloud providers, like AWS, GCP, Azure, DigitalOcean, OVHcloud, Hetzner, etc.
Projects
Since the beginning we operate our own validators in the Ethereum 2.0 network.
The future is multi-chain and flexibility, interoperability, scalability are crucial functions.
For this reason, we focus on the Kusama / Polkadot ecosystem and support the following Parachain projects with our services.
Polkadot/Kusama ecosystem projects we already involved in:
- Kusama / Polkadot network (Nodes)
- Khala / Phala network (API, Collator, Nodes, Bridges, Workers)
- Shiden / Astar network (Collator, Nodes)
- KILT network (Collator, Nodes)
- Bit.Country / Metaverse.Network (Collator, Nodes)
- Altair / Centrifuge (Nodes)
- Basilisk / HydraDX (Nodes)
API & NODE SERVICES
We provide our high performance Web3 API services exclusively on redundantly designed and clustered systems.
