Hardware Requirements

Please note

The specs are in addition to what you already have for Execution and Consensus nodes

📀 20GB storage (10GB minimum)

🧮 IOPS > 8K

Execution and Consensus Requirements​

Please check your clients' documentation for the hardware requirements. Usually Consensus documentation describes requirements for both Execution and Consensus clients:

Hardware usage reference​

For your reference, we checked resource usage depending on # of managed validators.

Tests were done on Testnet, so Mainnet will require slighthly more resources.

SSV node​

Resource usage by SSV node depending on number of validators

Execution and Consensus nodes​
