# Shredstream Overview

> Receive raw, Jito-compatible Solana mainnet shreds at one public IPv4 and UDP port.

Canonical: https://nolimitnodes.com/docs/api-reference/shredstream/overview

Shredstream pushes raw Solana mainnet shreds to a UDP destination that you control. It enters the data path before validator execution, so it does not behave like RPC, WebSocket, or Yellowstone gRPC.

Ultra includes **1 Shredstream destination**, including during the Ultra trial. Enterprise limits are custom.

## Delivery model

You register one account-wide destination:

```text
PUBLIC_IPV4:UDP_PORT
```

NoLimitNodes provisions delivery automatically. Updating the destination replaces the old target. Removing it stops delivery.

> Warning: V1 uses raw UDP. Packets carry no NoLimitNodes token, encryption, ordering guarantee, replay guarantee, commitment level, or execution result.

## What you receive

- Solana mainnet data and coding shreds
- A wire format compatible with the Jito proxy and client path
- Raw packets that your receiver must deshred into entries

## What you must operate

Your receiver must handle duplicate packets, out-of-order arrival, incomplete shred sets, forks, decoding, and backpressure. Use [Yellowstone gRPC](/docs/api-reference/grpc/overview) when you need filters, account updates, logs, execution status, or commitment.

## Access and permissions

Account owners and workspace administrators can create, replace, or remove the destination. Other workspace members can view its status.
