Installing dependencies and setting things up are required to run a node.
You can either run a node on your own hardware or use a cloud provider. We would recommend choosing one of the big cloud providers, e.g. Amazon AWS, Google Cloud.
Bare metal with equivalent or high specs are even better.
Minimum hardware specifications:
CPU: 4 cores
RAM: 16 GB
Network bandwidth: 1 Gbps
Storage: SSD (solid-state drive)
Storage capacity: depends on the types of your nodes.
2.5 TB: is sufficient if you're running using a pruned datadir.
5 TB: is needed if you'd like to run with a full size (non-pruned) datadir.
1 TB: is sufficient if you're running using a no-history genesis in snapsync mode (and then wait till it get synced to the latest block).
Operating system: Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS (64 bit)
