What server to run a pool ?

[Gabriel-]

Hi,

I've created a small pool that wont get more than 200GH/s. What server would be able to run this kind a pool with 2-3k miners on it ? Do you have links to buy
Does the server needs to be powerful because the hashrate is high or because there are alot of miners ? FOr instance, a pool with 200GH/s and 5 miners and a pool with 100GH/s and 5k miners, wish pool needs the best server ? So, does that depends on number of miners or hashrate ?

Thanks

Hi,

Pool server consists of 3 layers:
- crypto-currency daemon with RPC access
- back-end connecting to daemon RPC in order to get work which is split among miners in easier shares. It also uses some DB to save solved shares of every miner. People connect with their miners to your back-end.
- front-end. It's a website used for managing users/workers/payouts and observing statistics.

I think the most resource-taking are back-end and DB. You should just start from the scratch on some experimental, weaker server or VM in order to figure out what configuration you need.
