Introduction

What is Dedicated Node?

Based on the node type (such as Validator Node, Archive Node, Full Node), data summary, and related configurations you provide, we will create a dedicated blockchain node for you in the target blockchain network.

With your dedicated node, you can break free from usage and rating limits. No more worrying about node version upgrades or business stability. Focus on your core tasks with confidence.

Dedicated Node Type

• Validator Node
  A validator node is a type of node in a blockchain network that is responsible for validating and verifying transactions on the network. These nodes participate in the block validation process, and their primary function is to confirm the legitimacy of transactions and add new blocks to the blockchain.
• Archive Node
  Archive nodes verify every block from genesis and never delete any of the downloaded data. Keep all block body data and state data from the genesis block to the latest block in the blockchain.
• Full Node
  Full nodes do a block-by-block validation of the blockchain, including downloading and verifying the block body and state data for each block. Store the full block body data, but keep a local copy of relaticvely recent state data (the most recent 128 block).

Functional Features

• Monitor
  Provide a 7X24h monitoring dashboard for node, request, and resource status.
• Stable version upgrade
  Provide a software version upgrade mechanism that does not affect the normal operation of the nodes.
• Auto-scaling
  Support automatic node resource scaling, without worrying about stability issues caused by business growth.
• Emergency backup
  When the dedicated node experiences an emergency failure, switching to RPC nodes or backup nodes can support the normal operation of the application.
• Transaction Security
  Ensuring the secure transmission of transaction requests to prevent them from being maliciously intercepted.

How to Apply for a Dedicated Node

We provide a dedicated node application portal within the node service console. Simply provide the network information where you want the dedicated node deployed in the application form, and we will promptly get in touch with you. Upon confirmation of your requirements, we will proceed with the setup of the node for you.

1. Log in to the ZAN Node Service Console and click on Dedicated Node on the left navigation bar.

2. Under the Dedicated Node page, click on Contact Zan Seles.

   

3. In the pop-up window, choose the dedicated node network you wish to deploy. Multiple selections are supported.
   If the currently supported chains do not meet your needs, you can select Other and enter the name of the blockchain network you wish to deploy in the input box below.

   

4. Click Confirm to submit the application for the dedicated node.

   After submitting the application, please be patient. We will contact you as soon as possible to confirm the specific requirements for your dedicated node, including:
   • Node type: such as Validator Node, Archive Node, Full Node.
   • Data overview: specific data requirements for the blockchain network to assist us in configuring the node.
   • Other relevant configurations: such as security settings, network settings, performance requirements, to ensure that the node service can meet your expectations.
