I'm running the Cardano node and Cardano wallet in the same EC2 instance. I did create a couple of wallets, however, I couldn't figure out where and how it stores created wallets in the node. I'd appreciate it if someone could tell me the path that I need to look for.

When you start cardano-wallet you specify the wallet-db folder on the command line, that DB is where your private keys are saved (private key is encrypted using your spending password before saving)
"Wallets" are not stored on the blockchain. You need to make a transaction to an address of your wallet. This will create a transaction, which is stored on the blockchain.

When I create a wallet via
walletServer.createOrRestoreShelleyWalletI can see the wallets created in that Wallet Server by typingcardano-wallet wallets listand if I try to use that wallet in another wallet server it will not be visible because it is created in another wallet server. Therefore, I'd like to know the logic behind where thecardano-wallet wallets listcommand gets the created wallets in that server.– korimuskCommented Sep 6, 2022 at 6:26 -
Ah seems like I misunderstood your question. Could you please provide a link to the cardano-wallet you're using?– eddex ♦Commented Sep 6, 2022 at 8:17

developers.cardano.org/docs/get-started/cardano-wallet-js This is the source that I use WalletServer or Cardano Wallet CLI doesn't matter. I just need to know where this response gets this wallet info in the node.– korimuskCommented Sep 6, 2022 at 9:16
