Requirements

Minimum CAPS requirements
The minimum amount of CAPS required to run a validator on Ternoa is 150 000 CAPS.
Hardware Recommendations
For the minimum specification, we recommend:
2 core machine (with a newish server CPU)
4 GB DDR4/DDR5 ECC RAM
80GB SSD storage.
For optimal server we recommend:
4 core machine (with a newish server CPU)
4GB DDR4/DDR5 ECC RAM
160GB SSD storage.
It’s implied that using a slower or older server CPU might not produce desired results.
Besides server grade equipment, using newish Intel i3 series or AMD Ryzen 3 series CPUs would be more than sufficient to run our node.
