Regions & Routing
Ankr serves RPC from multiple regions across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. You connect to a single global endpoint and each request is automatically routed to the nearest healthy region, so you get low latency without managing region-specific URLs. Need a guaranteed region or isolated capacity? That's available on Enterprise.

| Area | Regions |
|---|---|
| North America | East (New York) · West (Los Angeles) |
| Europe | Frankfurt |
| Asia-Pacific | Tokyo · Singapore |
These regions back the public and Premium endpoints. The set evolves as we expand — Enterprise customers can also have capacity stood up to meet specific geographic or regulatory needs (see below).
How routing works
- One endpoint, global routing. You use the same
rpc.ankr.com/ Premium endpoint everywhere; traffic is directed to the closest region with healthy capacity for your chain. - Automatic failover. If a region is degraded, requests are served from the next-best region — you don't change anything.
- No region to configure on the shared endpoints. Routing is automatic and continuous.
:::tip Lowest, most consistent latency On shared endpoints, latency follows wherever you call from. If you need a pinned region, isolated capacity, or a presence in a specific jurisdiction, that's what dedicated Enterprise nodes are for. :::
Region pinning & dedicated nodes (Enterprise)
Enterprise plans can run dedicated nodes in the region(s) you choose, isolated from the shared pool — useful for predictable latency, data-locality requirements, or high, steady throughput. See Enterprise.
FAQ
Can I choose which region serves my requests?
On the shared public and Premium endpoints, routing is automatic — you're always sent to the nearest healthy region. To pin a specific region, use dedicated Enterprise nodes.
What happens if a region goes down?
Requests automatically shift to the next-best healthy region. There's nothing to reconfigure on your side.
Do you have a region in my area?
Ankr serves from North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific today, and adds capacity as demand grows. If you need a specific location — including for data-residency or compliance reasons — contact us about Enterprise.
