GraphOps Update February 2025

Research & Development Core Team Updates
1

:woman_astronaut: Summary

We are excited to share this month’s achievements and updates across our workstreams!

GraphSeer.com has rolled out a new glossary page, a new subgraphs table, and dedicated subgraph pages.

Launchpad has seen the release of updated versions of Launchpad Charts for Heimdall, Subgraph Radio, Graph Node, Nimbus, Graph Network Indexer, Arbitrum Nitro, and Erigon. We also rebased the Firehose Ethereum chart as a consumer of the common Library Chart. For Launchpad Namespaces, we released updated versions of Monitoring, Graph, Polygon, Ingress, Ethereum, and Arbitrum.

For Network Operations, our team has implemented improvements to the Epoch Block Oracle subgraph. We also released payment source segregation for the Core Network Subgraph.

The GraphOps Gateway is running an updated stack, now supporting compressed aggregated receipts over gRPC, and backed by an increasing number of Indexers. It’s online and production-ready!

We invite developers and data consumers interested in accessing subgraphs from The Graph Network to become early adopters of the GraphOps Gateway by completing this form. For Indexers looking to serve paid queries from the GraphOps Gateway, we have a separate form available at this link.

Happy February, everyone :sparkles:
