Core development notes and updates

2021-10-30

NEAR subgraph support is now in beta, in Graph Node and on the Hosted Service. Documentation is available here, and the corresponding GIP is here.

StreamingFast have been making progress with their Solana Firehose implementation, while Figment’s upcoming multiblockchain integration is nearly ready to demo.

Oliver shared an update on the Graph governance process, in particular giving more context on when the full governance process is required, and how core development work fits in.

Integration testing working group: a cross-functional group from several core development teams met this week, focused on unifying the existing integration testing setup used internally by Edge & Node with the tools used to investigate Proof of Indexing disputes on the network, extending both to support more multivariate cases & automation.

The Rust implementation of the Gateway has been undergoing performance testing & iteration. This will dramatically increase the Network’s potential throughput.

Some teams are planning improvements to the subgraph GraphQL schema, and to graph-ts, and are looking in particular for feedback and feature requests from the community on those components.

There are a range of meetings planned next week (w/c 1st November) for core contributors, please reach out if there are topics you would like to be discussed or considered!
