Phase 2 manual

More info to be provided as we approach this ITN phase.

Incorporating DEX data

Validators will now be able to collect the on-chain data from Cardano DEXes, which underpin Orcfax CNT feeds, and will do so by leveraging their own instance of a cardano node.

Validators will continue to send all data to the Orcfax federated validator and publisher.

Hardware and infrastructure

During this phase of the ITN, participants should expect to meet the following minimum requirements*:

  • 32 GB RAM
  • 8 CPU
  • 600 GB disk

* Specs are based on the minimal viable digital ocean servers operated by Orcfax.

However, participants should anticipate that these requirements will change as development, and ITN phases, progress. For this reason, participants should consult our Hardware Requirements where we will update the requirements as development progresses.

Software requirements

Starting this phase, participants will be expected to operate more taxing software (e.g. a Cardano node, Ogmios, etc.).
