Recommended Validator Configuration
Recommended Validator Configuration
CPU: 16 cores (minimum)
A multi-core processor is essential to handle the computational demands of running a validator, ensuring efficient transaction processing and smart contract execution.
RAM: 64 GB (minimum)
Sufficient memory is needed to handle large datasets and ensure the smooth operation of the validator under high network traffic. This amount of RAM ensures stability and minimizes crashes.
Storage: 1 TB (minimum)
Fast storage, preferably SSD, is recommended to handle large volumes of data, including blockchain state, logs, and validator data. This helps with faster read/write speeds and efficient transaction processing.
Network:
Bandwidth: 100 Mbps (minimum)
A stable internet connection with a minimum of 100 Mbps is enough to keep the validator in sync with the network. However, higher bandwidth is always beneficial for handling network traffic and ensuring smooth validation of blocks.
Operating System:
Linux (recommended, e.g., Ubuntu 20.04 or later) or other server-grade OS
A stable server operating system is necessary to run the validator program efficiently and ensure security updates and optimizations.
Backup & Redundancy:
Redundant power supply and backup systems (e.g., UPS, RAID storage) to prevent data loss and downtime in case of hardware failure.
Firewall & Security:
A secure network environment with firewalls and DDoS protection to ensure the validator remains protected from malicious attacks.
Optional Configuration (for higher stability or redundancy):
CPU: 32 cores or more (for larger validator setups or future-proofing)
RAM: 128 GB (for high-demand operations)
Storage: 2 TB SSD (for future expansion and larger data storage needs)
This configuration ensures that your validator can run efficiently on the Zeno network, with the necessary resources to earn block rewards and maintain stability.
The validator will be released in Q2 of 2025. Stay tuned!
