The Graph Network, a key player in the decentralized data space, has significantly upgraded its support for the Solana blockchain, building upon its previous integration. This enhancement provides the Solana developer community with enhanced access to data tools, offering streamlined ways to work with indexed Solana data.
The upgrades deliver a more robust development experience for Substreams-powered subgraphs (SpS), introducing new codegen tools for both remote and local use. These tools are developed by StreamingFast, a core engineering team within The Graph ecosystem. The new dev-environment simplifies the process for developers, allowing them to rapidly scaffold an end-to-end Substreams project.
The enhanced tooling simplifies data access for Solana developers. It enables seamless interaction with Solana data without needing to delve into Substreams or Rust. Developers have the freedom to choose the tools that best align with their skills and project requirements.
Several notable enhancements accompany the upgraded Solana support. These include:
Solana's impressive performance, characterized by its high transaction speed and low fees, has positioned it as a popular choice for decentralized applications (dapps) and decentralized finance (DeFi) projects. The Solana ecosystem is experiencing rapid growth, leading to a surge in demand for efficient data indexing and querying.
The Graph's enhanced support for Solana equips developers with powerful tools to build decentralized applications (dapps) and analyze on-chain data more efficiently. It offers:
These improvements are part of The Graph's broader mission to support the multi-chain future and foster interoperability in the web3 ecosystem. The upgraded tools will benefit Solana developers, data analysts working with Solana data, and the broader web3 community seeking data solutions.
The Graph serves as the backbone of data for the decentralized internet. As the original decentralized data marketplace, The Graph has become the standard for indexing and accessing blockchain data within the web3 ecosystem. Since its inception in 2018, tens of thousands of developers have built subgraphs for dapps across 70+ blockchains.
