Allnodes Announces Launch of Bare-Metal Servers for Solana Validators and Developers

Following efforts to boost participation in decentralized networks, Allnodes, a provider of non-custodial staking and node hosting services, has announced a major development today.

Allnodes announced it has released a new range of bare-metal servers tailored specifically for Solana validators and infrastructure developers. 

The single-tenant servers have been designed to meet Solana’s stringent performance requirements while offering high throughput, low latency, and enterprise-grade reliability without requiring users to manage on-premises hardware.

According to the announcement, the new hosting solution is engineered to exceed Solana’s baseline validator specifications, ensuring consistent performance even during periods of network congestion.

To ensure adequate efficiency, the server is powered by AMD’s latest-generation EPYC Turin processors, starting with the 24-core 9275F (up to 4.8 GHz Max Boost) and scaling to the 64-core 9575F (up to 5.0 GHz Max Boost). Standard configurations include 256GB of DDR5 ECC RAM running at 4800 MHz, with upgrades up to 3072GB at 4000 MHz or 1280GB at 6400 MT/s. 

With this flexibility, the servers empower validators leveraging Jito-Solana infrastructure and those requiring enhanced Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) handling.

Storage capabilities feature Gen 5 NVMe SSDs with up to 7.68TB capacity. Solidigm D7-P5310 drives, capable of delivering read speeds of 14,500 MB/s and 3.1 million IOPS, are included to support high I/O demands and rapid ledger access.

While the network performance includes dual 25 Gbit/s ports, with upgrade options to dual 100 Gbit/s connections, all servers are hosted in Tier 3.5+ data centers in Germany, providing redundant power systems, advanced cooling, DDoS protection, and 99.99% uptime.

Allnodes’ offering allows validators to retain full operational control while offloading infrastructure management. Clients have 24/7 access to the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) and BIOS for remote hardware management. Customized configurations are provisioned within 24 hours, and 24/7 technical support is available for maintenance and optimization.

Nonetheless, the service allows users to enjoy a fixed-cost alternative to self-hosting, combining predictable pricing with enterprise-level performance via the AMD EPYC Turin architecture.
