Sourcing Data

The Solana ledger is absolutely massive. In CAR format

Understanding the requirements of your use-case and what data you require is a critical first step to provisioning an Old Faithful installation.

There are several places you can get data from, each with their own varying degrees of complexity and hardware requirements.

OF1

Triton One provides a complete copy of all the files required to run Old Faithful, called OF1.

This archive is currently completely free to use, and is a great way to get started with Old Faithful.

Generating from RocksDB

Solana warehouse nodes archive the network ledger in a format called RocksDB. These archives can be used with the Yellowstone radiance fork to generate Old Faithful compatible CAR's.
