Guidelines for API clients

Public liteservers (from the global config) and free plans in TON API and Toncenter exist to get you started with TON quickly. It can be used for learning to program in TON, or for applications and scripts that do not require 100% uptime.

If you're a developer of a popular product you can use:

— More advanced plans in Toncenter or TON API, which provide more requests per second and better stability.

— Other APIs like dton, re:doubt, TON Access may also provide extended plans.

— Run your own node. In this case please pay attention to the hardware requirements.

New hardware requirements

Validators:
16 x Cores CPU
64GB Memory
1TB NVME SSD OR Provisioned 64+k IOPS storage
1 Gbit/s network connectivity

Full Nodes:
16 x Cores CPU
64GB Memory
1TB SSD OR Provisioned 32+k IOPS storage
1 Gbit/s network connectivity

Archival Nodes:
16 x Cores CPU
128GB ECC Memory
3.8TB SSD OR Provisioned 32+k IOPS storage (3.8TB assumes usage of ZFS volume with compression enabled).
1 Gbit/s network connectivity

Note that disk performance is important.
