We are a DevOps team which passionate about IT and Blockchain technologies. Our main goal as validators of every project is security and high availability

We are focused on crypto projects that are still in the development stage to provide support for them on the testnet stage and then lead them on the mainnet!

Our team provides the best security solution together with a fail-safe system and convenient etnerprise-level staking services. We have a solid infrastructure basis on the enterprise solutions which support by our Engineers 24×7.

Our team members have vast expertise in the technologies:

- Unix stack: CentOS, Ubuntu, Apache, Nginx, MySQL, bash scripting

- DB management: MariaDB (MySQL), MSSQL, working with other DBs if needed (using NoSQL databases for own solution, small databases for storing data for own tools like SQLite as a cross-platform or MSSQL CE for Windows)

The location and type of the node depend on the project needs; therefore, before starting the server deployment, we always coordinate all the details with management. Usually, we use Dedicated Servers with locations in the USA and Europe; we do not use Hetzner and Gitopia providers because we do not trust them.

Our team consists of software developers and DevOps with a solid background in building and maintaining IT infrastructure. We develop our own tools for monitoring and maintaining IT solutions, which helps us provide solid service for our validator nodes.

We use alerting systems on several levels: node/hardware alerts, security alerts, and validator events alerts. Depending on the alert type, different responsible team members are involved. In case of hardware/network issues, the node can be moved to a different location. Our technicians who maintain Cosmos nodes do their job if this issue is related to the validator in particular.

All our code is being deployed using automated pipelines. We use automation to update our node, and regarding our own tools, the full process follows CI/CD patterns. We have unit integration tests triggered by pipelines and an automated deployment process.

We use data center-level DDOS solutions. If the attack is detected we can request extended protection that includes dedicated hardware solutions.
