# Polygon (Mainnet / PoS)

Polygon, previously recognized as Matic Network, serves as a highly favored and adaptable Layer 2 scaling remedy for the Ethereum network. It stands apart as a comprehensive framework, facilitating the construction and interlinking of diverse blockchains. Polygon's core mission is to tackle Ethereum's challenges related to scalability and user-friendliness by delivering swift and economically efficient transactions, all the while upholding a robust linkage with the Ethereum mainnet.

Nodies' Polygon Nodes provide API access via the JSON-RPC specification. In this section, you will find detailed information on how to effectively interact with each API.
