How to choose the right data product for you
Pick between pulling or pushing data in the format that works for you
Why
Developers can focus on what they are building instead of running a hub and replicator which can be significant cost & effort over time
How to pick the right product for your team
Product | Pros | Cons |
---|---|---|
From Parquet exports | No need for developer to share access to database w/ Neynar | Need to set up parquet ingestion workflow (we will make sample github code available soon) |
Developer ingests parquet files and can read/write to their own db as needed | ||
Hosted SQL | Directly write sql queries against a postgres hosted db, no need to set up anything additional | Developer has no write access to db creating new indexes, etc. requires reaching out to Neynar no changes to overall table schema |
Indexer service - pipe Farcaster data | Neynar writes to a db on the developer’s side, no need for developer to manage hubs or replicators Neynar handles all hub and replicator related upgrades and maintenance | Developer needs to have a db that they can share write access to |
Developer has flexibility to let Neynar pipe specific tables instead of all FC data | ||
Developer can manage the db as they see fit — create new indexes, etc. |
