Streams GA: Web3’s Most Powerful Data Pipelines, Now Faster
From power traders to enterprise clients, the QuickNode developer community has made incredible use of our blockchain ETL tool, Streams.
Now, after optimization and product enhancements (like Filters), we are excited to announce that the Streams beta is officially ending.
Streams GA (General Availability) will go live starting September 1st, 2024.
Here’s what you need to know.
What’s New with Streams GA?
The official Streams GA will be released on Sunday, September 1st, 2024, and with it will come new pricing, which is detailed below. The biggest changes:
Free Streams for All: We’re making it easier than ever to start using Streams. Every user tier now includes a complimentary GB allowance, giving you a risk-free way to explore what Streams can do for you.Tiered Pricing that Rewards Usage: As you scale, so does your savings. After using your free GB, you’ll transition to Data Tier 1 pricing. But if your usage exceeds the Tier 1 allotment, you’ll automatically benefit from the lower rates of Data Tier 2.Turbo-Charged Speed w/ Enhanced RPS: We’ve listened to your feedback and ramped up the RPS for our Growth tier and doubled the RPS for Business tier customers. Now, you can backfill and maintain the freshest data faster than ever before. And for those needing even more speed, our Enterprise accounts can push the limits with speeds up to 3,000 RPS.
Start Streaming Now to Lock In Reduced Pricing
As a thank you to our beta Streams users and early adopters, any QuickNode user who creates a Stream before the end of August will be grandfathered into beta pricing for one month.
Here’s how it works:
Create a new Stream by 11:59 PM ET on August 31, 2024. You’ll lock in reduced beta pricing for September.
It’s really that easy!
But don’t wait: Start getting blockchain data in real-time, risk-free, right away to lock in the Streams Beta’s lower rate before it ends in September!
There’s never been a better time to get started with Streams, the most powerful real-time data pipelines in web3, which is now FREE!
Create a Stream for Free — No Streams Attached
Earlier this month, we announced that all QuickNode users can try out Streams and Functions for free.
Streams, combined with Functions, create a powerful blockchain ETL solution capable enough to process web3 data with the efficiency and speed developers are used to in web2.
We want all QuickNode users to see what Streams can do for their projects and businesses, so we adjusted our tiers to allow ALL QuickNode users to try Streams and Functions for free.
Streams: The Most Powerful Pipelines in web3
Streams is designed to be the gold standard in blockchain ETL, outpacing traditional data interaction methods like polling, which can be slow and inefficient.
With Streams, you get a continuous, real-time flow of blockchain data—perfect for applications that demand up-to-the-minute accuracy, such as financial services, gaming, and supply chain management.
Traditional methods of interacting with blockchain data, such as polling for updates, are inefficient and can lead to significant delays. Streams, however, provide a continuous flow of data, allowing developers to ingest blockchain data as it is generated. This real-time capability is crucial for applications that require up-to-the-minute information, such as financial services, gaming, and supply chain management.
With Streams, developers can ingest raw data and then use Javascript to filter only the specific data they need, reducing overhead and improving efficiency. This targeted data ingestion is a game-changer for blockchain ETL processes, as it allows for precise data extraction tailored to the application’s needs.
Streams vs. RPC
And when you combine Streams with the near unlimited flexibility of QuickNode Functions, you unlock a real-time suite of powerful blockchain ETL tools. Here’s a quick demo of how simple it is to use Streams and Functions together.
