Blockdaemon is the Total Node Management Solution
Blockdaemon guarantees peace of mind, as you never have to worry about maintaining or upgrading your nodes ever again — we look after all of that for you. Our finger is constantly on the pulse of each blockchain we support to ensure all of our nodes remain perfectly healthy. Our extensive experience across protocols lets us expertly monitor, repair and replace nodes where protocol level errors may occur. For any protocol updates needed, we look after these in advance so you never see any disruption in service.
Enterprise Level Security
Security is our top priority here at Blockdaemon. All nodes purchased through us are 100% customer dedicated. This means your node is yours exclusively. You’ll enjoy a dedicated node which has a unique address, its own unique connection and authentication key. Furthermore, these are never reused. We ensure your node is not open and exposed to anyone on the internet. Any nodes you’d like to add on additionally can be done so quickly and easily as well!
A Trusted Partner
Blockdaemon is by your side on your blockchain journey. We are the only infrastructure platform for blockchain nodes which offer multi-cloud and multi-geographical support, with just a few clicks. Want custom configurations and branded experiences? No problem, we provide a unified, whole-org, collaborative rollout to manage a complete network. Whatever your needs, we will work closely with you to deliver the solution you need.
Key Features
Develop with the Horizon API
Each Blockdaemon Stellar node launches with the Stellar Horizon API set up and running. Connect directly to the network using any Stellar SDK — from C# to Scala, or make REST calls directly in any language or toolset. Set up streaming data endpoints and monitor ledgers in real-time, or create offers for tokens. We’ve got you covered.
Official Stellar Partner
As a Stellar Partner, Blockdaemon stays ahead on the maintenance and updates of your node — API and Core changes. We regularly apply security updates and patches as they are released and tested, so you always have the latest and the best.
Basic and Full Validators Available
Choose from Basic Validators, with recent history for Core and Horizon, or Full Validators, which carry the full history for Core and have a fully synced Horizon instance, providing archives to the network at large, helping ensure the stability and security of the protocol.
Connect To Your Node How You Want
Blockdaemon exposes all available connection methods in the UI from our Connect interface. Get your Stellar node's Core command URL and send commands via curl or HTTP commands using the JSON-based API. Nodes that use Horizon also expose the Horizon URL for the Horizon REST API, which you can connect to using Stellar's SDKs or with individual commands. Your Stellar node's peer to peer URL is always available. Need additional configurations? Email us or send us a note in chat and we'll be happy to help.
Speed, storage, and hosting with ease
Core-Only Watcher, Core + Horizon Watcher, and Core + Horizon Validator Nodes ship with 80GB of fast SSD storage, and 2 CPUs with 8GB of RAM and can be launched on AWS or GCP. Additionally, each node has a default history retention period of 2 weeks, which can be adjusted by contacting our customer support team
No Rate Limits
We do not set rate limits for Stellar Core. Rate Limiting is only enabled for the Horizon REST API, using the default value of 3600 queries/hour - we're happy to raise this as needed!
