The node has the following requirements:

  • 128MB of free memory, may be more depending on average block size and MAXOUTSTANDINGBLOCKS setting.
  • CPU requirements completely depend on the amount of transactions per second that are done. Ask the processor for an indication for the amount of transactions per second.
  • Using the default block mining rate (once per 60 seconds): Up to 120MB per year the blockchain is running for storage (not counting transactions).
  • For 1 transaction per second: 30GB of storage per year the blockchain is running. Half the transactions per seconds also means half the storage needed. Note that this is a very rough estimate and greatly depends on the smart contracts that are used. Ask the processor for an indication for the amount of transactions per second.
  • Node.js 7.6 or higher (Tested up to version 13). The nodes should match the processor, so ask the processor what version is used.
  • Postgres 9.5 or higher (Tested up to version 12). The nodes should match the processor, so ask the processor what version is used.
  • A succesfully setup database according to the setup script.
