As the project plan and framework diagram, this article aims at analyzing all available knowledge and conducting the project plan in a steady and orderly way to ensure that the project can be later implemented according to the project plan and framework diagram.
Starting from scratch, the project requires a comparatively minimal system. Considering the fact that once the project goes online (the block reward starts), the service will face huge amount of input and output data, we should leave room for the scale-up (upgrade configuration) and scale-out (add more equipment) of the server.
For any type of blockchain product, the protocol layer must include various sections such as P2P network, encrypted signature, data storage and distributed algorithm. The application layer of any type of blockchain product should also provide basic applications, such as digital wallets and client explorer.
The minimal system can easily be equipped with a large memory space after compression. A master server with better input/output can easily support the system. Considering security and stability issues, every minimal system should be equipped with a backup system as well. The configuration of the backup system could be slightly lower (a.k.a. a slave server). Regarding system security issue, it is recommended to install a WAF before connecting the system, and then connect a cloud load balancer with the system. Regarding the hardware equipment of the cloud load balancer, we can choose equipment like F5 or any other equipment with same functions, but the disadvantage here is that the hardware equipment mentioned above can be very expensive. Another alternative solution is that we can use WAF to undertake the function of cloud load balancing, but it only provide very weak cloud load balancing capability). Regarding the software equipment of the cloud load balancer, we can adopt LVS open source solution (the solution requires a server to provide load balancer service). After all above procedures, the system that provides service is finally connected for operation (1 Master + 1 Slave equipment). The entire system is thus basically completed.
In any case of single point failure, the minimal system is considered as a single point. With sufficient budget, we may consider establishing a system with the same configuration in another location. With insufficient budget, we may adopt an alternative solution, which is implementing our complete plan on a cloud host. The disadvantage of the alternative solution is that the alternative solution is beyond our control and that its functions may be hindered by the upgrade of cloud host platform and the change of other relevant policies.
In the minimal system mentioned above, any single Master and Slave server plays the role as a full node. With sufficient budget, we may consider to add an extra server that plays the role as storage node in every minimal system for the independent storage of data, which in turn ensures the security of data redundancy.
NOTE: The WAF and the load balancer in the above framework diagram can be integrated, as WAF provides weak function of cloud balancing. Every framework is going to be in a different jurisdiction.
As is shown in the framework diagram above, every minimal system requires an access layer switch. It is recommended to adopt type H3C S5130 switch with 48 ports and two of these switches are required (one for spare or the setting of Intranet. After connecting to access layer switch, we then connect the system to WAF, and then connect WAF with load balancer, and finally we connect load balancer with Master server and slave server. (Actually, the data flow is exchanged through the same switch. We may adjust the setting of Intranet for Intranet data flow exchange and thus distinguish between Internet data flow and the exchanged data flow of the switch).
Switch and VLAN Division:
Master Server:
Slave Server:
Switch: H3C S5130 48 Ports * 2
WAF: WebRAY Ray-WAF-1006P(The purchase of license is required)
All above operation procedures can be realized through Teambition. The operation procedures are thus to be conducted through work sheet system.
We can provide servers, network switches, asset system, monitoring service and alarming system for abnormal events. We can develop asset system and monitoring service, or we can also use the open source service configurations that are currently available.
The equipment we initially purchased doesn’t come with high configuration, and thus we have saved more space for future upgrades and scale-ups.
Master Server:
Slave Server:
Storage Server:
Scale-ups: Add extra configurations to the servers (Memory Hard Drive SSD)
Memory: 2 CPU, 24 slot available altogether requires up to 24x single memory size
Hard Drive:
We have provided following upgrade solutions for hard drive:
Chassis with up to 12, 3.5" Hard Drives
Up to 18 x 1.8” SSD: SATA
Up to 24 x 2.5” + 2 x 2.5” HDD: SAS, SATA, Near-line SAS SSD: SAS, SATA, up to 4 NVMe Express Flash PCIe
Up to 16 x 3.5” + 2 x 2.5” HDD: SAS, SATA, Near-line SAS SSD: SAS, SATA
Scale-out: Adding extra servers and equipment
IDC will provide dual UPS. Remember to connect two ways of power supply separately to the dual UPS.
Future Topology Framework:
The running of node is important for the stability and security of the EOS main network chain. Therefore,the node will be positioned in multiple places. Our current plan for the positioning are in: China, Japan, Singapore and Canada.
System Framework Leader: Max
Operation and Maintenance Leaders: Max, Joseph Fanelli
As an early participator in EOS ecosystem development and with the ongoing development of its value and contents, technical discussions, offline salons, summits and ecological dApp, EOS Gravity has already become the world’s largest EOS followers community.
Considering the fact that the main network of EOS will be released soon, every member in the EOS ecosystem is responsible for its secure and steady operation. We will spare no effort to gather as much resources as we can including capital, technology, talent and community influence to reach the consensus on node development and become the exemplary node in EOS ecosystem worldwide.
Our community will always stick to our values: Secure, United, Advanced, and Flourishing.
The prospect of EOS Gravity: to become the world’s best EOS community.
