What you need to run Solana nodes

Before deploying, confirm your server meets these baselines:

Mainnet spec

CPU

16+ cores (high clock speed favored)

Memory

256 GB+ (RPC with account indexes: 512 GB)

Storage

Separate NVMe for accounts (≥1 TB), ledger (≥1 TB), snapshots (≥500 GB)

OS

64-bit Linux (Ubuntu LTS)

Network

≥1 Gbps symmetric (10 Gbps preferred); open UDP/TCP 8000–10000; keep RPC 8899 and 8900 private.

Node types

Validator (voting)

Participates in consensus; requires a vote account and robust networking.

RPC (non-voting)

Serves JSON-RPC; runs the same process without voting; typically keeps RPC ports private.

RPC with indexes

Adds account indexes/ advanced queries; plan for 512 GB RAM and fast NVMe.
