💻 Sentry Node Software Requirements: Optimizing for Orb3

Operating a Sentry Node in the Orb3 network requires certain software and hardware specifications to ensure smooth and efficient performance. Here’s a breakdown of what you'll need:

Supported Operating Systems:

• Windows Desktop

• MacOS

• Linux (64-bit required)

Minimum Hardware Requirements for Up to 100 License Keys:

• RAM: 4 GB

• CPU Cores: 2

• Disk Space: 60 GB

• Processor: x86/X64

• Internet Connection: A stable internet connection is crucial for continuous node operation and network communication 🌐.

Scaling With Additional Keys:

• Increased Hardware Needs: Adding more licenses to your node will likely increase hardware demands. However, it’s not necessary to have a separate machine for each key; the system is designed for scalability 📈.

• Dozens on a Single Machine: It’s feasible to accommodate dozens of keys on a single machine, and potentially even more, depending on the system’s capabilities.

Support for ARM Processors:

• Compatibility: The Sentry Node Software also supports ARM Processors, including the Apple M1/M2 chips, broadening the range of devices that can participate in the Orb3 network 🍏.

Adaptability to Changes:

• Evolving Requirements: Keep in mind that these requirements are subject to change as the Orb3 network evolves. Regular updates and announcements will be made to keep node operators informed of any changes 🔄.

By adhering to these requirements, you can ensure that your Sentry Node operates effectively within the Orb3 network, contributing to its security and robustness while optimizing for potential rewards.
