Deutsche Telekom MMS is now operating worker nodes as part of Subsquid’s decentralized data lake.
In a press release shared with Cryptowisser, the team said Deutsche Telekom MMS now joins over 700 worker nodes run by individuals and corporate entities. Worker nodes are crucial to the Subsquid network as they listen to queries and deliver the data requested as fast as possible from the data lake to the data consumer (including indexers).
Subsquid is a hyper-scalable and modular decentralized data platform that provides Web3 developers with the blockchain data access they need. Data lakes offer enterprises and businesses a place to store unformatted raw data.
By running worker nodes on Subsquid, Deutsche Telekom MMS is contributing to the data lake, further enhancing the network's resilience and scalability. The nodes have been live since earlier this summer.
With Subsquid’s decentralized data lake, worker nodes serve developers' queries. The data is stored in a raw format, enabling businesses and individuals to retrieve it in their preferred formats.
The Subsquid testnet was a success, with more than 60,000 indexers deployed to the network. The mainnet went live on June 3rd and is quickly gaining traction, with more than 700 worker nodes already launched on the network and over 536 TB of data stored and ready to be served in a peer-to-peer manner.
While commenting on this latest development, Dirk Röder, Head of the Web3 Infrastructure & Solutions Team at Deutsche Telekom MMS, said,
“Subsquid’s network, with its innovative data lake architecture, is a game-changer for web3. It unlocks the true potential of blockchain data, making it readily accessible and usable for developers and users alike. With our enterprise-grade infrastructure setup, we bolster the security and scalability of the network, providing the foundation for Subsquid's powerful decentralized Data Lake technology.”
Marcel Fohrmann, Subsquid’s co-founder, added that,
"Deutsche Telekom running Subsquid worker nodes is a big deal: One of the world's biggest and most trusted infrastructure providers will now be helping to strengthen and secure permissionless data access for use cases across Web3. We are reaching a new level of legitimacy and security not just for the network we are building, but for all of blockchain technology. “
Deutsche Telekom MMS is expanding its presence in the Web3 ecosystem as it already runs validators for renowned blockchain protocols, including Polygon, Ethereum, and Polkadot. It supports companies in their digital transformation and develops sustainable business models for digital experiences. As a leading digital experience service provider, Deutsche Telekom MMS offers customer-centric end-to-end solutions and brings digital to life.
Subsquid Network is a hyper-scalable modular data platform that combines a decentralized data lake with a highly efficient query engine to unlock new functionality for dApps, AI agents, analytics, and ZK Proofs/TEE by providing blazing-fast blockchain indexing. By replacing reliance on RPCs for querying chains, Subsquid facilitates retrieval of onchain data at scale, powering seamless user and builder experiences.
Meanwhile, Subsquid Labs is a blockchain infrastructure startup that created and contributes to Subsquid Network.
