deCDN Node is the daemon that runs a deCDN cache node — bond funds, serve cached content, and get paid per megabyte — deployed on Kubernetes via a Helm chart with a public QUIC-over-UDP endpoint, a persistent node-identity volume, and a ClusterIP-only metrics endpoint.

Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

Resources & Compatibility

Requirements not published yet.

First-install notes

  • Node identity setup Start with the node-operator docs in the decdn/devops repo (docs/node-operators.md) to create and bond your node identity; the chart must persist that operator-provisioned identity in its data directory before it will start. source

Common questions

What should I use to deploy a deCDN node on Kubernetes?

Use the deCDN Helm chart for Kubernetes. It deploys one release per node, for a cache node or an origin.

What can go wrong when systemd stops a node that has already pulled data from another node?

After a node has completed at least one node-to-node pull, it can stay in router.shutdown() on SIGTERM until systemd sends SIGKILL at the 5-minute stop timeout.

How can I run a node with a self-hosted relay instead of the public relay map?

Set the single [network] relay_url, or the DECDN_RELAY_URL environment variable. When set, it swaps the public n0 relay map for one self-hosted relay.

What bond must a node post to join the deCDN peer mesh?

Nodes post a TOKEN capacity bond to join the peer mesh. It is scaled to declared bandwidth and is never below a global entry floor.
