# Carbium

> Carbium is full-stack Solana infrastructure — bare-metal, no cloud middlemen.
> One platform covering the full transaction lifecycle: JSON-RPC, Standard WebSocket (pubsub),
> gRPC Full Block streaming, DEX aggregation, and Swap API execution. Built for developers,
> trading teams, and MEV bots that can't afford downtime or latency.

## Products

- [RPC](https://rpc.carbium.io): Standard Solana JSON-RPC. Drop-in replacement for Helius, QuickNode, Triton, or Alchemy. One key covers RPC + WSS + gRPC.
- [Standard WebSocket](https://docs.carbium.io/docs/standard-websocket): Native Solana pubsub — accountSubscribe, slotSubscribe, logsSubscribe, programSubscribe, signatureSubscribe, and more. Any Solana SDK works out of the box. Endpoint: `wss://wss-rpc.carbium.io`.
- [gRPC / Stream](https://docs.carbium.io/docs/solana-grpc): Yellowstone-compatible Full Block streaming at ~22ms latency. Business tier+.
- [Swap API](https://api.carbium.io): Aggregated DEX quotes and swap execution powered by CQ1 — sub-ms quotes, Jito bundling built in.
- [DEX App](https://app.carbium.io): Consumer-facing Solana DEX built on the same Swap API you can integrate yourself.
