A pre-synced Beacon node, with the Geth Client for Ethereum that allows you to connect to the beacon chain quickly and connect to Validator nodes. Beacon nodes can take 4-5 days to synchronise. Geth nodes can take 1 or 2 days. By using this node your Geth and Beacon node is synchronised within 3-5 hours. Allowing you to start Solo Staking faster. This is a Prysmatic Beacon node and is suitable for connecting Prysmatic Validator nodes. The Validator nodes you connect can be running on your own infrastructure or public cloud. Use this product in combination with your own Validator nodes or use Launchnodes Validator nodes. This pre-synced beacon node is an effective way to provide backup staking infrastructure for those Solo Staking at scale and hyper-scale. Allowing nodes to get back online fast.

Pre-synced Beacon Node with Geth (RPC & Solo Staking)
Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time. Alternatively, you can pay upfront for a contract, which typically covers your anticipated usage for the contract duration. Any usage beyond contract will incur additional usage-based costs.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
You pay by the hour based on the EC2 instance size you choose. Six options are available: m5.large, m5.xlarge, m5.2xlarge, m5.4xlarge, m5.8xlarge, and m5.12xlarge. These represent the same pre-synced beacon node running on progressively larger compute capacity. Pricing scales with the size of the instance you select, so you match cost to the compute and memory your staking workload needs. Billing is usage-based, meaning charges accrue only while an instance runs. All sizes deliver the same node function; the choice affects performance capacity, not features.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What do I actually get when I run one of these hourly instances?
You get a beacon node that is already synced to the Ethereum Beacon Chain, running with a Geth execution layer client. This lets you connect within a few hours instead of several days. You can attach validator nodes running on your own infrastructure or a public cloud.
Am I charged when the instance is stopped or paused?
Billing is usage-based, so software charges accrue only while an instance runs. Fully stopped instances do not accrue hourly software charges. Stopped instances may still incur underlying AWS storage fees for attached volumes, which are billed separately by AWS.
How do I choose between the m5.large and m5.12xlarge instance sizes?
All six sizes run the same pre-synced beacon node and Geth client. They differ only in compute and memory capacity, which affects performance under load. Larger sizes suit staking at scale with more connected validators. Smaller sizes suit lighter workloads. Cost scales with the size you pick.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
