Another blockchain: installing Ethereum on Oracle Cloud by Lonneke Dikmans

After installing MultiChain on Oracle Compute Cloud, and playing around with HyperLedger on the Oracle Blockchain Cloud service, I now ran into a case where Ethereum was used.
This blog post describes how I installed a Ethereum node on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

Prerequisites
  • An account on Oracle Cloud with Administrator rights
  • You have generated an ssh key-pair
  • You are logged in to your cloud account
Create Compartment

Create a compartment with the name Ethereum to separate this from your other infrastructure. You can find this under "Identity".

Create a Virtual Cloud Network
  1. Navigate to Virtual Cloud Network, by selecting Network from the Menu
  2. Select the compartment you just created
  3. Click "Create Virtual Cloud Network"
  • The compartment will default to the compartment you just selected
  • Name: ethereum-network
  • select "Create Virtual Cloud Network plus related resources" to quickly get up and running
  • Click "Create"

A dialog is displayed that shows you what has been created, after a few seconds.

Create compute nodes

For this example I will create 3 nodes on 3 separate VMs. Read the complete article here.
