Infrastructure Decision Matrix
Build vs. Buy: Managing Your Lightning Infrastructure
A detailed comparison of the total cost, risk, and resource commitment required to build and maintain a Lightning node infrastructure in-house versus using Chainscore's managed SDK.
| Key Factor | Build In-House | Chainscore SDK |
|---|---|---|
Initial Development Time | 6-12+ months | 2-4 weeks |
Core Engineering Cost (Year 1) | $250K - $500K+ | $0 (SDK License) |
Node Uptime & Reliability | Your responsibility (95-97% typical) | 99.9% SLA Guarantee |
Security & Risk Profile | High (custom, unaudited code) | Low (battle-tested, audited SDK) |
Protocol Updates & Maintenance | Manual, ongoing engineering burden | Automated, handled by Chainscore |
Channel Liquidity Management | Complex manual operation | Automated rebalancing & optimization |
Multi-Chain Support (L2s, Taproot) | Requires separate implementation | Built-in, configurable support |
Real-time Monitoring & Alerts | Requires building custom dashboards | Pre-built Grafana & PagerDuty integration |
Total Cost of Ownership (3 Years) | $750K - $1.5M+ | $50K - $150K (predictable OpEx) |
Time to First Revenue | Delayed by 6+ months | Weeks, not months |

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on our SDK's capabilities, security, and implementation process.
For a standard integration, you can have a fully operational, production-ready Lightning node with our SDK in 1-2 weeks. This includes initial setup, configuration for your chosen chain (e.g., Bitcoin, Litecoin), and basic automation rules. More complex deployments with custom liquidity management or multi-node orchestration typically take 2-4 weeks.
