Title: Installing RIPPLED SERVER on Ubuntu Digital Ocean
Post by: JollyGood on March 24, 2018, 04:23:05 PM
Does anybody have an idea of the size of hard drive required to run a Rippled Server?

I am testing some software where customers pay checkout using XRP so want to run Ripple on a server and use that server to confirm payments have been made and to generate new unique addresses at checkout.

Any tips?

Maybe check a wiki, here is one though I don't think it covers how to's etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_(payment_protocol)
Here is another one https://wiki.ripple.com/Introduction_to_Ripple_for_Bitcoiners

Oh here is a how to: https://wiki.ripple.com/Rippled_setup_instructions

It seems a tiny hard drive will do: "Ripple has no block chain download, clients are ready in seconds"

I found that these minimum requirements:
Installing rippled
Disk: Minimum 50GB SSD recommended (1000 IOPS, more is better) for the database partition

I read that too but I also read the part it states about server load and not having a blockchain to download. I think 50GB is too much for a small operation such as mine.
