Deploy a Node
There are three different classifications of Ontology nodes:
Triones node | Ontology MainNet
Triones nodes are bookkeeping nodes that participate in the network consensus, and must be voted in by user staking of ONT, after applying to be a consensus node. For more incentive and consensus related information, click here.
Synchronization node | Ontology MainNet / Polaris TestNet
Synchronization nodes do not participate in network consensus, and only synchronize the blocks generated by the Triones (bookkeeping) nodes.
Single node | Ontology Privatenet / Polaris TestNet
Ontology supports single node network deployment for development in a private testing environment.
Follow this link for a guide on how to deploy a node.
