JUNO is a community stake pool on the Cardano blockchain and is run by the team behind Dquadrant
Dquadrant is company with experts in Plutus/Haskell and solution development and is partner of IOG since early 2021. In the role of partner of IOG we created reference templates for the Cardano community for AgeUSD stable coin and NFT marketplace. We extensively tested the Vasil Harfork, SECP256K1 and community related Plutus/Haskell ticket handling to ensure that deliveries of IOG are made. Next to this we created an NFT marketplace and a library and api called Kuber to easily compose and autobalance transactions on Cardano.
We support the decentralization and security of the Cardano network by running a stake pool. Our goal is to make the staking experience for our delegators as smooth as possible by generating the best possible returns on stake. In order to achieve this we provide a high resilient infrastructure and network connectivity to guarantee 24/7 uptime.
Next to providing a professional stake pool service we are developing community and commercial grade solutions on the Cardano blockchain to drive the Cardano ecosystem.
Geographically distributed
Our stake pool JUNO infrastructure is running on bare metal servers. We make use of several data centers in different geographical regions. Our servers are located on several locations in Europe to ensure an excellent network connectivity and to support the decentralization and security of the Cardano network.
Resilient
Our infrastructure is highly resilient to ensure that our stake pool can produce blocks under any circumstances.
Monitoring & Alerting
We make use of active monitoring and alerting on our infrastructure to ensure nearly 100% uptime. In the event our infrastructure is compromised we are automatically alerted on our mobile phones so that we can respond immediately to the situation.
Cloud native
We are using the latest cloud native technology. This allows us to scale and to upgrade our nodes easily with the latest software. By using this technology we are independent of the host operating system and cloud service provider.
Secure
We did implement best security practices to ensure that our stake pool pledge and rewards are as safe as possible.
Environmental friendly staking
Our stake pool JUNO runs on renewable energy and has a low environmental footprint
Low fee
We have operational costs, we need to maintain our servers. Think about software updates, improvements, security etc.
For this we are calculating a very competitive variable fee of 1.45%.
Fixed costs
Fixed pool costs are mandatory to cover the costs of our hardware infrastructure. We are maintaining the lowest cost possible which are 340 ADA per epoch.
Pledge
According to cexplorer.io JUNO is a top 220 pledged stake pool. A stake pool with the most skin in the game. Next to this our stake pool rewards are automatically re-staked, guaranteeing the best ROS for delegators.
24/7/365 uptime
We run our nodes and block producer(s) in different geographical locations and datacenters.
Our stake pool block producer has a hot standby. Only this way we can guarantee the highest possible uptime.
Bare metal servers
Our stake pool infrastructure core runs on bare metal servers in cloud datacenters in Europe.
Experience
Staking with JUNO is choosing for 30 years of experience in IT. We have profound knowledge of running businesses, linux, security, enterprise software, cloud native solutions, machine learning, AI and IoT.
Everybody can run a stake pool by copying instructions, but operating a stake pool requires experience and devops skills to run a stake pool efficiently and secure to guarantee block production.
JUNO stake pool is actively contributing to the Cardano ecosystem by developing commercial and open source solutions and helping IOG with their deliveries as a development partner. Ultimately driving the success of the Cardano blockchain.
