Although anyone can run a Gateway, there’s no other choice besides the Edge and Node canonical Gateway. I am also quite curious about the possibility to lower the entry bar to expand the Gateway operator set:

- Operators can start small, serving data for niche use cases.
- More flexible cost models.

There’re some general information on edgeandnode/gateway github repo but I also can’t find any official docs on recommended infrastructure to operate a Gateway. Maybe I’ve missed something so I’d really appreciate if somebody can share your ideas/information sources on this. Thanks!
