What is a RPC node?

Created by Deepanshu Rathor, Modified on Thu, 23 Mar 2023 at 01:38 PM by Deepanshu Rathor

RPC (Remote Procedure Call) is a JSON-RPC interface compatible with Ethereum.
RPC enables integration of Polygon zkEVM with existing tools, such as Metamask, Etherscan, and Infura. It adds transactions to the pool and interacts with the state using read-only methods.

Additionally, for a software application to interact with the Ethereum blockchain (by reading blockchain data and/or sending transactions to the network), it must connect to an Ethereum node.
