Deployment Guide.
Deploy your Sovereign Pod: Infrastructure, Monitoring, and Enclave on AWS EC2.
Infrastructure (EC2)
The foundation. A hardened Amazon Linux 2023 kernel tuned for zero-jitter execution.
1. Search "Sovereign Pod AMI" in AWS Marketplace.
2. Launch instance. Recommended types: c6i.metal, m6i.metal.
3. Important: Enable "Enclave Options" in EC2 settings during launch.
Monitoring Agent
The Jitter Monitor runs as a privileged container to detect noisy neighbors.
bash
1docker run -d --privileged --net=host -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/zerocopy/sentinel-monitor:latest
Verifying installation:
bash
1curl http://localhost:8080/health2# Output: {"status":"OK", "jitter_us": 12, "action":"TRADING_ACTIVE"}
Sentinel Enclave
The Signing Service. Runs inside the Nitro Enclave (Ring 0).
A. Build the Enclave Image (EIF)
bash
1nitro-cli build-enclave --docker-uri public.ecr.aws/zerocopy/mev-sidecar:latest --output-file sidecar.eif
B. Launch Enclave
bash
1nitro-cli run-enclave --cpu-count 2 --memory 4096 --eif-path sidecar.eif --enclave-cid 88
Verification
Once all three components are running, your instance is ready for HFT.
KEY INSIGHT
Open Monitor Dashboard to verify p99 latency and enclave attestation status.
