fomo: Real-Time Social Trading at Scale on Solana
Como Quicknode a infraestrutura acompanhasse o crescimento das transações em tempo real da fomo na Solana.
- 18× GrowthPlatform consumption scaled 18× following the move to Quicknode Enterprise
- Sustained Throughput Maintained high-performance Solana RPC with significant headroom for traffic surges and product launches
- Scaled Without RewritesAbsorbed rapid growth without re-architecting core infrastructure or disrupting the real-time trading experience
fomo is a social-first trading platform built for real-time execution. Token data refreshes in milliseconds. Feeds update continuously. Portfolio values recalculate instantly. Every interaction depends on sustained Solana RPC throughput. As usage accelerated and request volume climbed into sustained thousands of RPS, infrastructure shifted from background plumbing to a core product dependency.
Desafios
Social trading does not tolerate latency. Real-time feeds, portfolio aggregation and token lookups rely on consistent RPC performance. Any disruption would directly impact execution speed and user trust. As fomo’s user base grew month over month, the team needed predictable scaling and structural headroom to support continued momentum. Infrastructure had to scale at the pace of product growth.
Soluções
fomo moved core Solana workloads to Quicknode Enterprise. The Enterprise tier aligned infrastructure capacity with sustained high RPS demand while preserving flexibility for expansion. Traffic distributes across providers, with Quicknode supporting primary Solana RPC access. Enterprise onboarding provided direct access during scaling and chain testing. The objective was clear: ensure infrastructure kept pace with growth.
Resultados
fomo now operates at sustained high RPS while maintaining a responsive real-time trading experience. Feeds remain consistent under burst traffic. Engineering focuses on product velocity instead of infrastructure management. Expansion across additional chains becomes additive, not architectural. In a competitive Solana trading market, predictable throughput protects speed. Speed protects growth.
«À medida que fomos aumentando a capacidade para milhares de RPS, precisávamos de uma infraestrutura que não prejudicasse a experiência em tempo real. Quicknode essa previsibilidade.»— Ren Yu, Growth Lead fomo
