Google Cloud has expanded the blockchain data available on its BigQuery data warehouse service, underscoring its growing focus on blockchain analytics.
On September 21, Google announced the addition of 11 new blockchain datasets to BigQuery, covering both layer 1 and layer 2 networks. The new blockchains include Avalanche, Polygon, Optimism, Fantom, and Near Protocol among others.
With the additions, BigQuery now provides data for 19 different blockchain networks. Enterprises can use the service to store proprietary data and query public blockchain information for valuable insights.
Google first added Bitcoin and Ethereum">Ethereum data to BigQuery back in 2018. It has consistently expanded coverage since as adoption increases. The public on-chain data aids blockchain developers, researchers, investors and more.
Beyond expanding network support, Google Cloud introduced new functionality to BigQuery to improve handling blockchain data. This includes managing the long decimal values of crypto tokens.
The blockchain integration builds on Google Cloud’s growing involvement in Web3 infrastructure. Through big data analytics tools like BigQuery, Google Cloud enables customers to capitalize on blockchain’s potential.
As crypto emerges from its bear market, robust blockchain data and analytics will be key for real-world adoption. Google Cloud’s BigQuery enhancements provide developers and enterprises the on-chain visibility needed to build blockchain solutions.
