The Graph is a decentralised indexing network for blockchains that provides fast and efficient access to data from different blockchains. The main idea is to allow developers to create and deploy their own decentralised indexes to interact with data on blockchains.
The Graph indexes data that is part of blockchains to make it accessible to applications and smart contracts. The main components that can be indexed include:
1. **Blocks and transactions:** Block and transaction indexing allows applications to easily access the history and events that occur on the blockchain.
2. **Contracts:** Indexing smart contracts allows you to access their source code, status, and other important data. https://paybis.com/blog/what-info-is-indexed-by-the-graph/
3. Transactions and Tokens:** Indexing of transaction data and token distribution allows you to track the movement of funds on the blockchain.
4. **Configuration parameters:** Indexing of blockchain configuration parameters such as addresses, gas settings and other parameters.
The Graph allows you to create your own subgraphs that define what information developers want to index and make available to their applications. This makes it possible to effectively use blockchain data for decentralised applications.
