Substreams reach General Availability

Announcement

The Substreams engine developed for The Graph Network has reached General Availability! It is deemed ready for production & will now be officially supported by StreamingFast!

Substreams have acquired powerful parallelization capabilities, turning it into a full-blown distributed processing system, akin to BigQuery - where, instead of SQL, you get to pass in WASM code to transform & aggregate data over the chain’s history + live incoming blocks.

Both the software & the service will be hosted by us & the first supported networks will include Ethereum & Polygon.

Endpoints to Substreams will be provided until the technology is made available on The Graph’s decentralized network.

Thank you to all the teams & individuals that contributed to the Substreams ecosystem by developing data sinks (or data loaders), providing feedback & beta-tested the software.

Thank you to: Pinax, Messari, Edge & Node, GraphOps and Sebastian Lorenz

This year has also seen the largest growth of protocol integrations that are Firehose-enabled (Substreams-ready), by different teams:

  • Polygon, BNB, NEAR and Solana (by StreamingFast)
  • Cosmos Hub, Osmosis and Juno (by Figment)
  • Arweave (by ChainSafe)
  • Antelope (by Pinax)
  • Aptos (by Aptos)
  • StarkNet (by zkLend)

And work is completed (by ChainSafe) to enable the Erigon client to speak Firehose

Let’s make 2024 our largest growth of protocol integrations again!
Let’s go team Pinax and the other core devs :wink:
