Ikura

Ikura is a global monitoring and health-tracking service for blockchain RPC endpoints and nodes. It helps teams assess availability and performance through real-time monitoring, detailed uptime and response-time history, and checks conducted from multiple locations. This global perspective can reveal regional access restrictions and identify unhealthy nodes that may affect routing.

For server-side node monitoring, Ikura provides open-source monitoring software that users install on their own servers, allowing them to track node health without exposing nodes publicly. Users can configure monitoring projects and receive custom alerts through email, webhooks, Telegram, or Discord, depending on their plan. Public status pages are also available for sharing service health.

Ikura offers a free Starter plan and paid Pro, Advanced, and Premium plans, with limits and features varying by tier. These include different allowances for monitored RPCs and nodes, status pages, project and team access, and history retention. The service is designed to help blockchain operators monitor infrastructure and respond to issues with timely, location-informed insights.
