Run, upgrade, and maintain Injective validator nodes, sentry nodes, and supporting infrastructure.
| Node | Role |
|---|---|
| Validator Node | Participates in consensus by proposing and voting on blocks. Requires staked INJ as collateral and high-availability hardware. |
| Sentry Node | A full node that shields validators from direct public exposure by relaying traffic, acting as a gateway between the validator and the public network. |
| Component | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Cosmovisor | Process manager that automates chain binary upgrades, enabling zero-downtime transitions when governance-approved upgrades occur. See Node Operation for setup. |
| Peggo | Bridge orchestrator that relays messages between Ethereum and Injective. Mandatory for validators. |
| WebSocket Server | Streams real-time chain events over WebSocket, wrapping the gRPC Chain Stream server for standard WebSocket connections. |
