NaaS Chainlink Nodes Overview
Node as a Service (NaaS) offers the ability to deploy a private, secure Chainlink Node. Chainlink Nodes enable access to the Node Operator GUI used to create and manage jobs for requesting off-chain data. For more information about Chainlink Nodes visit their documentation.
I. Getting Started
Installing a Chainlink Node can be accomplished with just a few steps:
- Navigate to naas.link/nodes
- Select the Node you'd like to deploy
- Specify a name and region
- Deploy the Node
The Node will be available within a few moments. Once the Node is live, you will be able to login to the Operator GUI with the credentials provided upon deployment.
II. Networks
NaaS is currently available to the following testnets. In the Spring of 2022, LinkPool will release Mainnet support for the same blockchain protocols:
- Ethereum (Rinkeby, Goerli, Kovan)
- Optimism (Kovan)
- Binance (Testnet)
- HECO (Testnet)
- Matic (Testnet)
- Avalanche (Testnet)
- Arbitrum (Testnet)
III. Expiration
Testnet nodes have an expiration period of 30 days. Nodes may be renewed with 2 days of expiration. Nodes that are not renewed will be automatically be destroyed upon expiration.
IV. Limitations
Each user may deploy one testnet node.
V. Pricing
Nodes are currently free to use in Testnets (subject to change).
