Infrastructure

Type: Bare metal

  • Cumulo operates Story validator nodes on dedicated bare-metal servers, avoiding shared or virtualized environments.

  • Our infrastructure is designed for stable consensus participation, predictable performance and long-term reliability.

  • Dedicated AMD Ryzen-based servers with ECC memory and NVMe storage

  • No resource oversubscription or noisy-neighbor risks

  • Out-of-band management via IPMI/KVM for emergency access and recovery

  • Infrastructure hosted across independent providers to reduce correlated failures

Regions: North America (St. Louis), Europe (Madrid)

Backups and recovery infrastructure in Strasbourg (France) and St. Louis.

Security Certs: None

Cumulo does not currently hold formal security certifications such as SOC2 or ISO27001.

Security is managed internally following industry best practices, with a strong focus on infrastructure isolation, controlled access, continuous monitoring and transparent incident reporting. Story services by Cumulo

Why Delegate to Us?

Cumulo is more than a validator—we are active ecosystem operators and community builders.

We combine reliable infrastructure with hands-on support for developers, creators, and protocol teams, ensuring Story is not only secure and performant, but also understood, accessible, and actively growing across new communities.
