I have about 35 instances running on amzn ec2. All of them are 32 core. Can I do something like you?
Sure, anybody can buy them and run them as long as you can meet the power requirements since these will not run on 110v.
If your outside of the USA freight would probably kill the deal.
What difference between mining and running nodes?
A node is simply one computer, motherboard, cpu, ram and hard drive in a removable tray.
These have two nodes per server, they share one power supply and chassis.
So basically two computers per server chassis.
You can configure them identically or completely different.
You mine on each node just like you would a regular pc.
