Why TheGraph is important for Web3
TheGraph’s curation program has allowed us to learn about TheGraph ecosystem, how Subgraphs work, and evaluate which subgraphs are high quality and useful to users. It was also extremely insightful to learn how subgraphs are developed, deployed, and used. We at Anyblock have developed a dashboard that leverages the subgraph from TheGraph Testnet to visualize meaningful and important metrics for curators, indexers, and other interested users.
SQL Database Cluster Ready for Test-Drive 🚗
We decided to leave the old database server at sql.anyblock.tools:45432. The new cluster can be reached at sql.anyblock.net:5432 – which is indeed A LOT faster!
We are moving to a new SQL server 🚚
If you’re only using our API, Alerting or Dashboards and do not use the SQL Server, there is nothing to do and things will keep working as expected.
The data will still be updated on both SQL servers and your existing credentials will be migrated, so except from changing the host and port, there is no immediate action required for your SQL Mainnet production use cases. Everyone else should start migrating their scripts as soon as possible.
