Blockchain developers today aren’t just asking for faster indexing — they’re asking for an entirely different class of infrastructure. One that adapts to modular architectures, works across sovereign and shared chains, enables real-time responsiveness, and scales cost-effectively with zero operational drag. So, the expectations from a modern data indexer have changed.
In this piece, we explore the essential features that define modern data indexing infrastructure — and how Traceye has built these features into a single platform purpose-built for rollups, appchains, and enterprise use-case-specific chains.
At its core, modern data indexing is about three things: instant access to structured on-chain data, real-time triggers to power interactive apps, and flexible setups to support highly modular, evolving networks. And none of that should require months of DevOps or absolute expertise in Postgres.
So what separates today’s leading indexers from legacy systems? Start with these must-have features:
Rollups and appchains often need to expose on-chain data to frontends, dApps, analytics tools, or external partners — fast. But launching GraphQL APIs is often a painful and dev-heavy experience, involving RPC setups, schema configs, and infra provisioning.
Modern indexing infra should let you launch GraphQL APIs in minutes, without DevOps.
That’s exactly what Traceye allows. For Ethereum-compatible chains like OP Stack, Arbitrum Orbit, ZKsync Hyperchains, or custom blockchain stacks like Avalanche Layer1s, Traceye offers a no-code GraphQL API builder. It supports key API types (ERC-20, NFT, transaction data) and makes them available on top of your archive RPC in under 10 minutes.

2. Real-Time Data Streaming with Webhooks
In modern applications — especially DeFi, gaming, or social apps — polling for data isn’t good enough. Builders need real-time event triggers that respond instantly to on-chain activity.
Webhooks are now a must-have.
Traceye supports unmetered webhooks for both Graph and SubQuery indexers, delivering real-time updates on new events directly to your app or backend. Whether it’s a new token mint, lending activity, or a leaderboard update, data is streamed in real-time — unmetered — from your dedicated node to your application.
3. Ultra-Fast Data Indexing for SubQuery and Graph Protocols
For new chains or dApps indexing historical data, speed is everything. Nobody wants to wait hours (or days) for syncs to complete, especially when launching in production.
Modern infrastructure must offer high-speed backfill, reduced lag, and automatic re-org syncs.
Traceye supports both The Graph and SubQuery. But the edge lies in how it handles them: 5x faster backfilling, automatic chain re-orgs, and 99.99% uptime. For SubQuery specifically, Traceye supports dedicated nodes, hosted infrastructure, and even BYO-RPC setups that drastically cut deployment costs for newer rollups.
Indexers store massive volumes of data, but most dApps don’t need historical info forever. Keeping everything bloats the database, slows queries, and inflates costs.
Modern infra should let you prune unnecessary data automatically.
Traceye gives full pruning (both ledger data and indexed data) control to builders. You can retain only recent block data (e.g., 10k blocks), prune older indexed entities, and optimize performance without extra cost.

APIs are great — but what if your analytics team wants to run SQL, or a data scientist wants raw tables?
Modern infrastructure should support both GraphQL APIs and direct database access.
Traceye allows direct access to its underlying Postgres instance via custom or Elastic Search. It gives your devs full freedom to run complex queries directly on indexed data — perfect for analytics, dashboards, or custom logic layers.
For devs and product teams, seeing on-chain data in human-readable formats — tables, charts, dashboards — is critical.
Modern indexing solutions should come with built-in BI tools.
Traceye integrates Apache Superset as part of its BI engine, enabling you to create full dashboards on top of subgraphs or SubQuery data. Whether it’s tracking lending activity, gaming stats, or AI Agent interactions, visualizations are just a few clicks away.
When your indexer powers production apps, outages aren’t acceptable. Builders need to know when memory, disk, or CPU is spiking — and they need resolution, not just visibility.
Modern infra must offer full monitoring and self-healing automation because you can’t fix what you can’t see.
Traceye provides 24/7 node monitoring, real-time service alerts, infra utilization charts, and automated issue resolution. All metrics are accessible through an intuitive dashboard.

8. Support for Shared & Dedicated Infrastructure
Early-stage projects may not need a full dedicated node. But scaling one’s will. You should never have to switch platforms just because your infrastructure needs have changed.
Modern infra must support both shared and dedicated setups with seamless migration.
Traceye offers:
Shared infra at just $60/mo for growing public chains
Dedicated indexers with full control, custom SLAs, and real-time add-ons
Most indexers focus on just a handful of ecosystems. But if you’re serious about modular chains and rollup ecosystems, you need broader support.
Traceye supports:
OP Stack chains (L2s and L3s)
Arbitrum Orbit (L3s)
ZKsync Hyperchains
Avalanche Layer1s
Cosmos SDK and Substrate chains
Hyperledger & permissioned appchains
No matter the framework, there’s full support for launching, monitoring, scaling, and optimizing your indexing setup.

Q: Does Traceye support both SubQuery and The Graph?
Yes. You can deploy indexers for either protocol or both, based on your architecture.
Q: Can I use Traceye with my own RPC endpoint?
Absolutely. Bring your own archive RPC and deploy fast with reduced costs.
Q: How does pricing work?
Free plans are available for testing. Shared infra starts at $60. Dedicated nodes include full add-on support and custom SLAs.
Q: Is the BI and pruning available on all plans?
Only on dedicated infrastructure. Shared nodes come with basic monitoring but not BI or pruning.
Q: How long does deployment take?
Under 10 minutes using Traceye’s low-code, guided deployment panel.
