Harden node.blockstack.org service #402

Closed jackzampolin closed 6 years ago

jackzampolin commented 6 years ago

Moving discussion about the node.blockstack.org service from here: https://github.com/blockstack/blockstack/issues/400

jackzampolin commented 6 years ago

I'm going to replace the current setup with one based on docker where we can closely pack the blockstack-core nodes to easily scale the number of nodes available to service requests. I have a working setup right now, but its a bit brittle due to an open issue: https://github.com/blockstack/blockstack-core/issues/658

I have this service set up at https://node.technofractal.com:6263 and http://node.technofractal.com:6264 for testing and comparison

I've got full details on the install here: https://github.com/blockstackinc/devops/tree/master/node.blockstack.org#docker

I built a load testing program to help test this: https://github.com/blockstack/blockstack.go/tree/master/cmd/bsk-load

The new installation is much faster! This is ready for some certs and a DNS switch over

Some performance numbers from the testing: https://gist.github.com/jackzampolin/9ee2dd2fc0fd4d1ed2ca53a94127df0f

DNS has been switched. Going to go ahead and close this issue.
