## A new public Hive Node

Serving a public HIVE node to the community was a long time to-do item for me, as of today, that to-do item becomes a reality. The node is accessible at `https://hived.emre.sh`. 

I've been silently testing things on the node in the last couple of days, and so far it's running stable.


| Specs |
| -------- |
| CPU: AMD EPYC™ 7502P 32-Core|
| Memory: 128GB DDR4 RAM |
| Storage: 2TB NVMe (For Hivemind and Hived data only) |

The server is located in Finland, at the moment. As time passes, and I get more time budget and experience with the public API maintenance, I plan to add one more instance (preferably somewhere different than Finland) and load-balance the domain.

Even though I've maintained a Hivemind instance for a year before, the whole API node setup is new to me, and I'll be learning in the process. So, there may be some bumps in the road, but I will try to keep the node with a good uptime record. 

If you're a developer, if you have an app, if you want a different node in your Keychain, you can just use `https://hived.emre.sh` as a node, contribute to testing and decentralization. :)

## Use the node on PeakD

`https://hived.emre.sh` is a whitelisted node on PeakD, and you can select it as a default node on your settings page. You can also check out the [API benchmark](https://peakd.com/me/tools/benchmark) tool to see which node works best for you.<sup>(Greetings to @asgarth for quick reaction and update on PeakD)</sup>
