Hey there, @techblogger here with an exciting new update from @buildteam.

As you probably know, @buildteam is parent company to some very popular Steem services which include @minnowbooster and @steemvoter. What you may not know is that these services are incredibly complex and process a massive number of requests each day. The type of server load for these requests is enormous and a standard RPC node is just simply no longer up to the task of serving all of our loyal customers. This is why we are happy to announce that our new "lightspeed" BuildTeam RPC Node is now online and much of the credit for this accomplishment goes to a few very talented developers which include @themarkymark and @reggaemuffin.

How to access the node?

• https://rpc.buildteam.io

What are the Technical Specs of the new BT RPC Node?

Hardware Configuration

Dual Intel® Xeon® CPU E5-1650 v3 @ 3.50GHz
256GB Ram
2x 480GB SSD (RAID 1)

Performance

Our performance monitoring shows excellent performance potential from this node. With everything in RAM, response time is outstanding. We were able to catch up on a 3+ hour backlog in less than 15 minutes when we introduced this node to our services.

Below you will see some real time metrics of the hardware:
