TL;DR: Matthew from Pinax presented on scaling Substreams, explaining how to set up and monitor tier 1 and tier 2 nodes for processing blockchain data. The architecture involves tier 1 nodes that are chain-specific and tier 2 nodes that are blockchain-agnostic. The setup requires monitoring through Prometheus and Grafana, with proper hardware sizing depending on specific Substreams workloads and complexity….

Exciting news for Solana developers! Pinax has launched the beta version of its Firehose and Substreams endpoints for Solana. Why this matters Solana’s high-speed and low-cost transactions make it a prime platform for decentralized applications (dApps). However, accessing and processing the vast amounts of data generated by the network can be a challenge. Pinax’s new endpoints aim to change that…
TL;DR: One of the developers from BuildersDAO shares insights about Substreams composability, including a demo where he demonstrates the integration of Chainlink Substreams. Learn more about Graph BuildersDAO and watch member Thomas demo the benefits of Substreams’ composability.

Substreams, the brainchild of StreamingFast, is a remarkably robust blockchain data processing engine. It harnesses the capabilities of Firehose to extract blockchain data and empowers developers to write Rust code for processing and storing this data. However, despite the impressive indexing technology that Substreams brings, developers are often hesitant to jump in because they worry about using Rust. In this…
