Web-Scale Blockchain for fast, secure, scalable, decentralized apps and marketplaces.
- Code in your language
Code in C, C++, Rust, and Move. Flexible virtual machine integrations, with more on the way. - Avoid long wait times for your users
Blazing fast speeds and no mempool. 400ms blocktimes and sub-second finality. Web 3.0 with Web 2.0 speed. - Never worry about dealing with scale
Native scaling, no sharding or layer-two solutions to scale. Scales with Moore’s Law. - Enterprise-grade security
Audited by a Fortune 500-preferred security firm. Iron-clad immutability for global scale.
Focus on your business, not your infrastructure
The global, distributed network is specifically built to scale with Moore’s Law, without sacrificing decentralization or security to support users and devices in the billions. 8 core innovations let you focus on scaling your business, not your infrastructure, don’t choose between scale, security, and decentralization.
Solana has solved the trilemma for you. No sharding required. Here’s how:
- Proof of History (PoH)
A clock before consensus - Tower BFT
A PoH-optimized version of PBFT - Turbine
A block propagation protocol - Gulf Stream
Mempool-less transaction forwarding protocol - Sealevel
World’s first parallel smart contracts run-time - Pipeline
Transaction processing unit for validation optimization - Cloudbreak
Horizontally-scaled accounts database - Archivers
Distributed ledger storage
Solana’s performance is unparalleled, and specifically built for high-frequency and massive-scale applications.
Your users will never even notice.
