Hi, friends!
(russian ver.);(spanish ver.);(hindi ver.);(portugal ver.);(korean ver.);A little prehistory...
My first NodelevelA in SmartHoldem was deployed in the virtualization environment on my own computer with the characteristics recommended by the (2cpu/2ram/50ssd) system developers. Testing lasted for less than one day and ended up successfully. A positive experience was gained and we made a decision to deploy the Node in the productive mode as part of the VPS service provided by a large data center. It is then when the full-fledged NodelevelA “Saint” appeared in Moscow. It had the following characteristics:
-(2cpu@2.8Ghz/2ram/20ssd).
After almost a week the “Saint” provides you with the geographically spreaded group of servers located in the data processing centers with the guaranteed availability of no less than 99,9%. Initially, an idea of this expansion came up due to a high value of RTT (RoundTripTime) for the SmartHoldem users located on other continents. For instance, the time period between a ping and receiving an answer in the USA-Russia bond is approximately 200 ms, and in the Brazil-Russia bond it is 300 ms. I was “infected” with this idea by a very talented engineer who is an administrator of the NodelevelA «runode». Having instantly found a common ground and combined our efforts, we created the American server with the NodelevelA “usa_saint” located in Atlanta, Georgia, with the following characteristics:
- (2cpu@3.5Ghz/2ram/20ssd).
The next step in the SmartHoldem development was an installation of the first server in the South America with the NodelevelA “brazil_saint” located in São Paulo, Brazil. Its characteristics were the following:
- (2cpu@2Ghz/2ram/50ssd/).
After a success in Brazil no one could stop us! So, one day later, the Queen of England is having the server with the NodelevelA “uk_saint” on her territory, located directly in the Hampshire County. The characteristics were:
- (2cpu@2.2Ghz/1.5ram/20ssd/).
Later in the evening of the same day the King of Sweden has also acquired the server with the NodelevelA “swe_saint” located right in Stockholm. The characteristics were:
- (2cpu@2.2Ghz/1.5ram/20ssd/).
Two days later, a Korean peninsula with its highest speed of Internet connection joined our large SmartHoldem network with the NodelevelA server named “kor_saint” located in Seoul, Korea. The characteristics are the following:
- (2cpu@3,4Ghz/2ram/20ssd/).
Sunny India, the country of wonderful tea and elephants, was not long and gladly installed the “ind_saint” server located in Bangalore, India, with the following characteristics:
(2cpu@2Ghz/2ram/40ssd/).
Today, on the 31st of December 2017, the last “saint” server will be installed in the country of the sun, the sea and the corrida. The server with the NodelevelA “spain_saint” located right in the city of Madrid, Spain, with the characteristics such as:
- (2cpu@2.4Ghz/2ram/60ssd/).
The servers state is continually tracked by the Zabbix monitoring system, it allows to timely detect problems regarding availability of servers or a growing resource deficit before the matter is in fact closed.
There is a valid special offer from me personally -
vote for any “saint” node (saint, runode, usa_saint, brazil_saint, uk_saint, swe_saint, kor_saint, ind_saint, spain_sain) and get the fee back! To confirm your vote for me, send me an ID of your transaction from
explorer via private chat and I 'll be glad to cover your expenses!
Your votes are essential to keep the node in the active list.
Though it`s a bit early to discuss, but the NodelevelA saint policy will proceed from the necessity of decreasing any fees…
