Ethereum 1.16.8
Decentralized Blockchain Platform
Ethereum 1.16.8 is a decentralized blockchain platform used for executing smart contracts and supporting distributed applications (dApps). It provides a programmable peer-to-peer network where transactions and logic are validated through consensus rather than centralized systems.
This offering delivers a preconfigured Ethereum 1.16.8 node running on Ubuntu 22.04, optimized for deployment on AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, with free maintenance support from ATH Infosystems. It allows organizations to run their own Ethereum infrastructure while maintaining control over configuration, networking, and data.
Platform Overview
The solution provides a ready-to-operate Ethereum 1.16.8 node environment for cloud-based blockchain workloads.
- Ethereum node software preinstalled and configured
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS base for stability and security updates
- VM deployment model across AWS, Azure, and GCP
- JSON-RPC and peer network connectivity enabled
- Suitable for public or private Ethereum network participation
This environment is designed for teams that require direct infrastructure control and flexible integration with existing systems.
Core Identity Capabilities
Ethereum provides built-in capabilities for decentralized identity and programmable transaction logic.
- Smart contract execution on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)
- Support for wallet-based identity and key management
- Cryptographic signing of transactions
- Account and permission structures via smart contracts
- Integration with Web3 tools and identity frameworks
These capabilities enable blockchain-based application logic and secure transaction validation.
Deployment and Architecture
The deployment follows a cloud-native virtual machine architecture.
- Single-node Ethereum 1.16.8 instance on Ubuntu 22.04
- Compatibility with cloud networking and firewall configurations
- Persistent storage using cloud block storage services
- Full administrative access to the OS and Ethereum configuration
- Expandable to multi-node or clustered blockchain setups
The architecture supports development environments as well as production blockchain nodes.
Scalability and Performance
Ethereum nodes can scale based on workload and infrastructure capacity.
- Vertical scaling via cloud instance resizing
- Storage scalability through cloud block storage
- Suitable for transaction validation, smart contract execution, and data indexing
- Integration with monitoring tools for node performance visibility
- The deployment supports development nodes as well as enterprise blockchain infrastructure.
Maintenance and Support
Free maintenance support from ATH Infosystems is included.
Support includes:
- Deployment validation
- Configuration assistance
- Upgrade guidance
- Troubleshooting and operational best practices
ATH maintains the base image to ensure compatibility and stability.
Security and Compliance
Security is centered on infrastructure control and cryptographic protections.
- Self-hosted node with full data and key ownership
- Encrypted peer-to-peer communication
- OS-level access controls and hardened configurations
- Compatibility with cloud IAM, security groups, and firewall policies
- No embedded third-party telemetry or licensing dependencies
Organizations can align node operations with internal security and compliance requirements.
Common Use Cases
Ethereum 1.16.8 on cloud infrastructure is commonly used for:
- Smart contract development and testing
- dApp backend infrastructure
- Blockchain analytics and indexing
- Private Ethereum network deployments
- Enterprise blockchain research and innovation
Summary
This offering provides a cloud-ready Ethereum 1.16.8 node on Ubuntu 22.04, enabling organizations to run blockchain infrastructure on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud with full control over configuration, security, and integration. It is suited for teams building decentralized applications, blockchain services, and enterprise blockchain solutions
