# StarkNet Node **Published by:** [168800.eth](https://paragraph.com/@168800/) **Published on:** 2023-11-04 **URL:** https://paragraph.com/@168800/starknet-node ## Content Setup a full Node for StarkNet, for direct access to the StarkNet layer 2 network. Using Docker compose with Pathfinder or Juno clients. (document last update: 1/8/23) StarkNet is a permissionless & decentralised ZK-Rollup which operates as Layer 2 over Ethereum. supporting scale, while preserving the security of L1 Ethereum by producing STARK proofs off-chain, and then verifying those proofs on-chain. Full Node: a full node, this is the L2 equivalent of a full node on Ethereum, which connects to other full nodes via peer-to-peer networking, stores full blockchain data and verifies all blocks and states. There are a few clients for a full node on StarkNet Pathfinder: by Eqlabs is a full node implementation written in Rust. Juno: by Nethermind is a full node implementation written in Golang. Hardware Requirements: Recommended RAM 8GB, CPU 4core, Storage: 100GB (starting) Ubuntu 20.04 LTS installed Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS (Focal Fossa) https://www.releases.ubuntu.com/focal/ https://www.releases.ubuntu.com/focal/ ## Publication Information - [168800.eth](https://paragraph.com/@168800/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://paragraph.com/@168800/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@168800): Subscribe to updates
