Today we’re excited to announce our indexing support for Aurora! Aurora is a next-generation EVM compatible execution layer that runs on NEAR. It provides a fantastic environment for EVM developers to take advantage of the speed and scalability of NEAR while developing smart contracts in a familiar environment.

SubQuery’s flexible, fast, open, and decentralised data indexing solution provides blockchain developers with the tools needed to easily organise and query on-chain data for their protocol and applications. Abstracting the backend, SubQuery provides a custom API and lets developers focus on product development and user experience rather than building their own indexing solutions.

“Aurora is building a seamless next generation Ethereum development experience, and we’re excited to welcome SubQuery to provide fast and efficient indexing support to teams building here. Developers in Aurora are going to benefit from SubQuery’s excellent developer experience, and feature rich indexer that supports indexing both NEAR and Aurora data together. Just like how getting started on Aurora is as easy as changing the RPC endpoint, migrating your SubQuery projects is just the same.” — Slava Karkunov, Developer Relations at Aurora

Aurora developers will benefit from the superior SubQuery indexing experience, including the open-source SDK, tools, documentation, and developer support that the SubQuery ecosystem provides. Aurora is also supported in SubQuery’s enterprise level managed service, which provides enterprise level infrastructure hosting and handles hundreds of millions of requests each day.

We are also excited with our collaboration with Aurora where SubQuery’s open source SDK will allow the 200+ projects in the Aurora ecosystem to be able to index data very quickly to power the creative dApps that are being built. SubQuery’s multi-chain feature also means that data can be indexed from chains outside of the NEAR/Aurora ecosystem providing an even richer data set for Aurora developers and their users. — Sam Zou, Founder and CEO of SubQuery

Our experience with customers across all verticals in Ethereum, Polygon, Polkadot, Cosmos, Algorand, NEAR and Avalanche (such as wallets, networks, explorers, NFT, DeFi, scanners, etc.) has helped us build the best Indexer for Developers in web3.

SubQuery is currently focused on decentralising and tokenizing the protocol to build the SubQuery Network. The SubQuery Network will index and service data from projects to the global community in an incentivized and verifiable way and support indexing Aurora projects, and those from any other supported Layer-1 from the outset.

The Aurora integration is live and ready to be used in production by projects across the network.

About Aurora

Aurora is a next-generation Ethereum compatible blockchain and ecosystem that runs on the NEAR Protocol. It aims to be an Ethereum-compatible scaling solution. This enables developers to operate their apps on an Ethereum-compatible, high-throughput, scalable, and future safe platform at a lower transaction costs for their users.

About SubQuery

SubQuery is a blockchain developer toolkit facilitating the construction of Web3 applications of the future. A SubQuery project is a complete API to organise and query data from Layer-1 chains. Currently servicing Ethereum, Polygon, BNB, NEAR, Polkadot, Avalanche, Algorand, Arbitrum, Aurora, Cosmos and Flare projects, this data-as-a-service allows developers to focus on their core use case and front-end without wasting time building a custom backend for data processing activities. In the future, the SubQuery Network intends to replicate this scalable and reliable solution in a completely decentralised manner.
