# Deployment Strategy Clarification
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Current Configuration
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### West Europe (Primary Region)
|
|||
|
|
- **AKS Cluster**: 1 cluster (az-p-we-aks-main)
|
|||
|
|
- **System Nodes**: 3 × Standard_D2s_v3 (6 vCPUs)
|
|||
|
|
- **Validators**: 1 × Standard_B2s (2 vCPUs) - Planned
|
|||
|
|
- **Total**: 8 vCPUs (within 10 limit)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Cloud for Sovereignty (37 Regions)
|
|||
|
|
- **Foundation**: ✅ Deployed (resource groups, VNets, Key Vaults)
|
|||
|
|
- **AKS Clusters**: ❌ Not deployed (deploy_aks_clusters = false)
|
|||
|
|
- **Validators**: ❌ Not configured
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Deployment Options
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Option 1: 5 Validators in West Europe
|
|||
|
|
**Configuration**:
|
|||
|
|
- 5 × Standard_B2s = 10 vCPUs
|
|||
|
|
- **Issue**: Exceeds 10 vCPU limit (need quota increase)
|
|||
|
|
- **Cost**: ~$75/month
|
|||
|
|
- **Location**: Single region (West Europe)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Option 2: 1 Validator per Region (5 Regions)
|
|||
|
|
**Configuration**:
|
|||
|
|
- 5 regions × 1 validator = 5 × Standard_B2s = 10 vCPUs total
|
|||
|
|
- **Requirements**:
|
|||
|
|
- Deploy AKS clusters in 5 regions
|
|||
|
|
- Each region needs quota for 2 vCPUs
|
|||
|
|
- **Cost**: ~$75/month (5 × $15/month)
|
|||
|
|
- **Regions**: Could use West Europe, North Europe, UK South, France Central, Germany West Central
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Option 3: Validators as Pods (No Quota Needed)
|
|||
|
|
**Configuration**:
|
|||
|
|
- Deploy Besu validators as pods on existing system nodes
|
|||
|
|
- **Advantages**:
|
|||
|
|
- No additional quota needed
|
|||
|
|
- Can deploy immediately
|
|||
|
|
- Can deploy in multiple regions (if AKS clusters exist)
|
|||
|
|
- **Cost**: $0 additional (uses existing nodes)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Recommended Strategy
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Phase 1: Immediate (No Quota Needed)
|
|||
|
|
- Deploy Besu validators as pods in West Europe
|
|||
|
|
- Uses existing 6 vCPUs from system nodes
|
|||
|
|
- Can deploy multiple validators as pods
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Phase 2: Regional Expansion (After Quota/Infrastructure)
|
|||
|
|
- Deploy AKS clusters in priority regions
|
|||
|
|
- Deploy 1 validator per region (or as pods)
|
|||
|
|
- Scale based on requirements
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Phase 3: Production (Full Deployment)
|
|||
|
|
- Deploy dedicated validator node pools
|
|||
|
|
- Use Standard_B2s or Standard_B2ms
|
|||
|
|
- Deploy across multiple regions for redundancy
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Questions to Clarify
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **How many validators?**
|
|||
|
|
- 5 validators total?
|
|||
|
|
- Or 1 validator per region across 5 regions?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2. **Which regions?**
|
|||
|
|
- All in West Europe?
|
|||
|
|
- Or distributed across multiple regions?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
3. **Deployment method?**
|
|||
|
|
- Dedicated node pools (need quota)?
|
|||
|
|
- Or as pods on existing nodes (no quota)?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
4. **Timeline?**
|
|||
|
|
- Immediate (pods)?
|
|||
|
|
- Or after quota increase (node pools)?
|
