ogmios standalone running in a different computer that is running cardano-node

Question

is it possible to run Ogmios standalone in a different computer that is running cardano-node. it happens that i already have cardano-node running in a computer but i dont want to overload that with Ogmios and want to run it in another equipment. Is it possible? Thank you

Answer 1

It should be possible.

You need to connect to the Cardano node socket on the Node PC from your Ogmios PC over the network. To do this, you can use the socat command (assuming you're running on Linux. See here for instructions: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/714010

Make sure your firewall is configured correctly.

Then you can simply follow the Ogmios Standalone instructions to connect to the socket on the Ogmios PC.
