--- description: 🧑🏽‍💻 Remote Development Environment for Ocean Protocol --- # Get API Keys for Blockchain Access This article points out an alternative for configuring remote networks on Ocean Protocol components: the libraries, Provider, Aquarius, Subgraph, without using Barge services. ### Get API key for Ethereum node provider Ocean Protocol's smart contracts are deployed on EVM-compatible networks. Using an API key provided by a third-party Ethereum node provider allows you to interact with the Ocean Protocol's smart contracts on the supported networks without requiring you to host a local node. Choose any API provider of your choice. Some of the commonly used are: * [Infura](https://infura.io/) * [Alchemy](https://www.alchemy.com/) * [Moralis](https://moralis.io/) The supported networks are listed [here](../discover/networks/).
