Introduction
Phoenixd by ACINQ is a specialized Lightning node that provides liquidity and channel management out-of-the-box. Alby Hub provides support for a number of different backend nodes including Phoenixd so let's take a look how to run them both together on Nodana.
Step 1
Deploy a Phoenixd node instance and make sure you choose "internal" for the network to ensure that communication is over the private internal network.
Step 2
Deploy an Alby Hub instance ensuring that you entered your node's internal url and password before clicking Deploy.
Step 3
Access your Alby Hub url. You should see that it will automatically start with a Phoenxid node backend.That's it!
