Improving dashboard with API usage monitor

· Lectura de un minuto
Dora Noda
Software Engineer

Many of our customers asked us to improve how we measure API consumption. So today, an API usage monitor is added to the dashboard.

BlockEden.xyz API usage monitor

The chart above shows a test customer's daily requests in the last seven days. The requests are measured in compute units. A compute unit estimates how many resources an API method consumes on BlockEden.xyz. For example, a simple REST request only consumes 1 CU, while a more complex GraphQL request consumes 5 CUs.

Please note that our daily cutoff for the API meter is UTC 00:00 am.

With this new line chart, you can

  • Get more accurate predictions of your API usage.
  • Make better decisions about how to use your APIs.
  • Spend less time worrying about your usage and more time developing your product.

BlockEden.xyz is committed to making it easy for developers to build applications on the blockchain. Our next step is to add basic data analytics for Aptos and support Sui Devnet. If you have any feedback, talk to us at https://discord.gg/GqzTYQ4YNa.

Aptos GraphQL API now available at BlockEden.xyz

Bock Eden is glad to add the indexer fullnode GraphQL to our Aptos API and Node Service. This solves the pain point immediately for many DApp developers with a high QPS demand in the Aptos ecosystem.

Without our out-of-box performant API, these developers have to connect to the official servers, which are shared across hobbyist developers with a very restrictive rate limit of 300 requests/hour. This limit is not for production-level products. In this case, developers are forced to run the indexer full node by themselves. And unfortunately, the official guide is confusing and does not cover the entire tech stack.

Now, with BlockEden.xyz's Aptos GraphQL API, developers are now free from worrying about the rate limit or the huge hassle of running their own GraphQL servers.

Here's how to get started...

Step 1. Go to https://blockeden.xyz/dash/. Please sign up if you haven't done so.

Step 2. Input your name for the API key, select Aptos Mainnet Indexer GraphQL, and then click + Create key.

Step 3. Click the access URL in the table to copy or click Test to get started with the Hasura GraphQL playground.

Bungie, who is working on an Aptos wallet, says "This is literally life-saving!"

BlockEden.xyz is committed to growing with the Aptos developers and providing the most tailored and scalable developer infrastructure. This GraphQL feature is exactly the result of listening to our customers. If you are an Aptos developer that needs anything from us, let us know at https://discord.gg/eWZvE4RSBw

Hablemos de TPS de blockchain

· 3 min de lectura

Nota: Las métricas citadas aquí fueron tomadas en octubre de 2022 y pueden ya no reflejar el rendimiento actual de la red.

En el día 1 del lanzamiento de Aptos Mainnet, hubo algunas conversaciones confusas en redes sociales

TPS es el acrónimo de transactions per second (transacciones por segundo) y cómo los ingenieros miden el volumen del tráfico de la red. Hay varios escenarios cuando hablamos de TPS:

  • Max TPS significa el tráfico máximo que una blockchain podría soportar. Esto está determinado por la rapidez con la que una cadena puede alcanzar consenso y crear un nuevo bloque, así como el tamaño del bloque (p. ej., BTC) o el límite de gas (p. ej., Ethereum) de un bloque. Para Ethereum y blockchains posteriores que soportan contratos inteligentes, tiene más sentido estar limitado por gas, porque diferentes transacciones (p. ej., transferencia de token 1‑a‑1 vs. acuñación múltiple de NFT) tienen distintas complejidades computacionales y deben ser medidas de forma consistente. Dicho esto, el max TPS no es una medida muy estricta del rendimiento de una cadena. En su lugar, lo que se mide con mayor precisión es el max gas per second. Entonces, ¿cómo obtienen los desarrolladores el valor del max TPS? Normalmente es el resultado de experimentos: un límite superior bajo buenas condiciones de red, validadores totalmente disponibles y transacciones simples.

  • Actual TPS es el volumen de tráfico actual de una blockchain en operación. Esto depende mayormente de cuán ocupada esté la red. Alrededor del lanzamiento de Aptos Mainnet, no había muchas dApps listas ni muchos usuarios con tokens de Aptos, por lo que pocas personas estaban realizando transacciones en Aptos en ese momento. Por eso el TPS real era bajo entonces. Sin embargo, el TPS real está limitado por el max TPS. La llamada congestión de Ethereum ocurre cuando el TPS real ya alcanza el max TPS, no pueden procesarse más transacciones y estas deben esperar.

Así, el alto max TPS de Aptos demostrará su ventaja cuando el ecosistema crezca, ya que seguiremos viendo liquidaciones de transacciones casi instantáneas y comisiones bajas.

Ahora, volvamos a los clientes de BlockEden.xyz. Ofrecemos servicios de API de nodos en diferentes niveles, donde la principal diferencia es el límite de QPS (similar al acrónimo de queries per second) al usar nuestro servicio. El nivel gratuito básicamente ofrece 1 QPS, mientras que el nivel Pro ofrece 10 QPS. Eso indica cuántas llamadas REST API puedes hacer por segundo. Esto es diferente de cuántas transacciones pueden liquidarse en la blockchain por segundo. Cuando llamas a la REST API, no solo puedes realizar operaciones de escritura (es decir, enviar una transacción), sino también muchas operaciones de lectura (p. ej., obtener información de una cuenta, obtener un bloque, obtener una transacción).

Genesis of BlockEden.xyz

· 4 min de lectura
Dora Noda
Software Engineer

Hello, world! We are a group of software engineers from the San Francisco Bay Area, building BlockEden.xyz - a suite of APIs powering DApps of all sizes for Aptos and Sui blockchains. Why are we doing this?

Genesis of BlockEden.xyz

We were fascinated by the Bitcoin whitepaper and its disruptive technology back in 2012 and then started to build our own blockchain and its ecosystem at IoTeX in 2017. During the trip, along with the fast-moving industry, we find that:

  1. There are huge gaps between developers and new blockchains. Blockchain installment is like software in the 90s - complex, slow, error-prone, and unscalable.
  2. Web3 developer experience is quite fragmented. Blockchain raw data, derived data, API, push notification, blob store - all those APIs are scattered into different places for the developers to find out and make integrations.

Usually, DApp developers run their own blockchain node or purchase an API service; unfortunately, API service is not quite available for new blockchains like Aptos and Sui.

BlockEden.xyz is here to help -

We bring an API cloud SaaS to developers so they do not have to run and maintain their own blockchain nodes and services. (Starts to build in 10s, instead of spending 20 hours to start, countless hours to maintain!) We get started by serving unique developer tools and data to the Aptos and Sui ecosystem.

The developers could call our standard blockchain and GraphQL APIs with access keys, and use our dashboard to inspect blockchain data schemas, write SQLs and manage their access keys.

How are we different from other blockchain service vendors?

BlockEden.xyz vs. Ankr, NodeReal, Alchemy, and Shinami - Node RPC Services

We are a chain node vendor and we deep dive into the Move-language blockchains by providing unique APIs and services that developers cannot find elsewhere.

BlockEden.xyz vs. Dune Analytics, Flipside Crypto - Data Service

We have no intention of being a web3 data infra for all blockchains.

Blockchain data is all public - Homogeneous content, quality and SLA won’t outrun category leaders. Web3 innovators want painkillers for specific pains, not one-stop shop vitamins for everything. Thus, we aim to be a category leader for Move language blockchains and avoid direct competition with established late-stage businesses.

Although we can build the general-purposed data infra, we think the costs are too high while the profitability is too low to target data analysts and researchers. So instead, we focus on builders, run lean, and persevere.

Going beyond

Node RPC service is just a starting point for BlockEden.xyz. Compared to the crowded data infra space, we think there is vast room for innovations to bridge the gap between web3 developers and blockchain vendors.

In the past five years, we have built a top-50 blockchain, SDK, wallet, DEX, staking portal, decentralized e-commerce, and many more DApps. Now, we are sourcing the best technologies into a unified API and service suite, so that web3 developers like ourselves could focus on building their magic, without the hassle of maintaining a blockchain and its utilities.

In the incoming five years, if your mission is to build the killer app to bring web3 to everyone on the planet, then our mission is to be your best ally. Together, we fight for the next-generation decentralization innovations.
