Just wondering I hear that the hive engine nodes have issues and that the main node is backed up. Is there only 1 main node there as I thought there would be back up nodes to make sure everything is running even if one or two go down.

There are several nodes now. The main node is the one that is being operated by the Hive Engine team itself. Even if the main node goes down, the other nodes will still be able to keep up as long as we are not forked/diverged. Additionally many applications go down because they all have the main node as their endpoint.
Ah ok. I was wondering why there were so many issues so it is more or less dependent on the applications to change nodes.

Yes applications can have an automatic way to switch nodes if there is an issue with the current node.
