nodes - Difference between Ethereum Web APIs and Ethereum API as a service

I am approaching ethereum for the first time and I am reading the documentation. Can anyone explain the difference between Ethereum Web APIs (BlockCypher) and The Ethereum API as a service (infura)? https://ethereum.org/en/developers/docs/apis/backend/#available-libraries

question from:https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65878036/difference-between-ethereum-web-apis-and-ethereum-api-as-a-service

There is no real difference. BlockCypher and Infura are just 3rd party companies which have created their own set of api endpoints which control access to the ethereum json rpc api.

The best thing to do would be to check the documentation of each one to ensure they are capable of what you aim to use it for.

You may find one api has more features than the other.

What exactly do you need it for?
