EOS Cafe Block infrastructure will utilize cloud-based Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) from Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud providing cloud redundancy. The block producer and public endpoints infrastructure will be located in the North America regions. By using established cloud providers, EOS Cafe Block will be able to provide redundancy with high uptime and also be able to leverage the security posture of leading cloud providers to our benefits. A hybrid of bare-metal/on-premise and cloud infrastructure is on our roadmap for the near future and it is part of our hardware scaling plan.

While our IT infrastructure leverages some of the redundancies provided by IaaS providers such as power and networking, internally we are continuously building other redundancies such as geographic colocation, backup and through continuous monitoring to ensure that we can recover quickly in case of downtime. Our main goals in providing IT infrastructure for Telos network is to reliably produce blocks, to provide quick response time and to continue meeting the public demands of reliable endpoints. The following are the available hardware that we intend to provide:

Primary and Secondary Node

CPU: 2x Intel Xeon 4 GHz

Cores: 2 X 4 = 8 cores

RAM: 2 x 32 GB = 32 GB

Storage: 2 x 500 GB SSD

Network: 10 Gbps

Public Endpoints

CPU: 2x Intel Xeon 4 GHz

Cores: 2 X 4 = 8 cores

RAM: 2 x 32 GB = 32 GB

Storage: 2 x 500 GB SSD

Network: 10 Gbps

Beside leveraging security posture of IaaS providers, we are continuously building toolings to provide visibility into our infrastructure network. In addition, we always review our security best practices internally beyond just IT infrastructure. We apply best practices to secure our private keys and to guard our devices against various attacks e.g. phishing, man-in-the-middle, etc.
