Node Role
- Validator, RPC, indexer, archive node, distributed storage, or mixed role
- Chain or software stack, version expectations, and operational owner
- Uptime goals, failover expectations, maintenance windows, and support model
Node Infrastructure Intake
Blockchain node infrastructure intake.
Use this intake to scope bare-metal infrastructure for validators, RPC nodes, indexers, archive nodes, distributed storage, and chain-data growth.
Collect First
Node role and data growth drive the hardware plan.
Storage and Data
- Current data size, expected growth, snapshot needs, archive requirements, and retention
- Drive type, capacity, I/O behavior, controller needs, and replacement expectations
- Backup, restore, replication, and offsite copy expectations
Network and Operations
- Bandwidth, NIC count, switching, optics, latency sensitivity, and public/private network paths
- Rack, power, airflow, remote management, monitoring, and alerting expectations
- Spares, repair path, handoff notes, and future refresh timing
Output
Blockchain infrastructure should still be scoped like infrastructure.
A useful node plan documents node-role profile, storage growth assumptions, hardware direction, network and snapshot notes, spares, repair path, and support handoff.
