Introduction
Raiku brings enterprise-grade certainty to Solana infrastructure, empowering businesses to build and operate on-chain faster, more reliably, and at higher efficiency than has been previously possible.
Note: Raiku is a rapidly evolving project. We're making swift progress with regular updates to our core infrastructure services, and our documentation is frequently changing.
Background and Vision
While Solana is fast, existing infrastructure remains fragile and unreliable under stress for enterprise-level businesses that require landing thousands of transactions per day or more. Raiku reengineers blockchain infrastructure from first principles to deliver enterprise-level reliability for internet capital markets.
We deliver deterministic execution and low-latency performance by placing high-performance compute where transactions happen, and by coordinating execution through our advanced scheduling engine. This provides the reliability and operational control that businesses cannot succeed without.
The Challenge
Applications on blockchains are failing when it matters most. Transactions don't land on time, performance collapses under load, and developers patch around infrastructure instead of relying on it. These issues stifle and prevent the growth of on-chain business at scale.
Without infrastructure that service providers can depend on, Solana cannot become the future of finance, computing, and information. No business can succeed without a great product, and no great product can be built on an unreliable foundation.
Introducing Raiku: A Fair and Efficient Marketplace for Blockspace
Raiku establishes a fair and efficient market for blockspace, transforming it from an unpredictable commodity into a guaranteed, programmable resource.
Raiku empowers:
Developers to build for users, not infrastructure failures
Traders with consistent and fully predictable execution
Institutions to operate with certainty at scale
Validators to scale revenue by offering Ahead of Time compute without sacrificing existing sources of revenue
Technology Highlights
Raiku’s performant block building architecture allow the validators already securing Solana to offer guaranteed block inclusion as an additional service, providing transaction-landing certainty to both app developers and users even under conditions of extreme network duress. Raiku features:
Deterministic transaction-landing for guaranteed outcomes
Low-latency onchain compute reservation within milliseconds
Just-In-Time transaction and bundle execution
A new source of revenue for validators providing Ahead-of-Time CU reservation
Full compatibility with existing transaction bundling services
Raiku's architecture enables a two-sided execution and blockspace market that aligns incentives for developers, validators, and institutions. Builders can access just-in-time blockspace, or reserve compute units in advance with our ahead-of-time blockspace reservations.
