Title: What server to run a pool ?
Post by: Gabriel- on May 01, 2013, 07:53:37 PM
Hello,

My team want to run a mining pool and we are trying to get some informations.

What server should we use ? Is it better to get a dedicated server or should we buy our own ? Server has to be fully secure and anonymous and also powerful. We are aiming about 50'000 or 100'000 PC's running for the pool.

What is the best solution for a powerful and anonymous server ?

Thank you very much.

You could search for a hosting company that lets you customize your own server.

Is this the better solution ? Buy a customize server on a host compagny (OVH looks OK for this, right ?) ? Or it may be better if we buy our own stuff.

Buying your own stuff is also a good idea.

Do you know the specificity that the server will need to handle 50k PC's ?
