How to index Optimism data with Goldsky
Turbo Pipelines
Stream Optimism data with the latest blockchain data streaming engine. Vectorized processing, instant deployment, and live data inspection without needing an enterprise team.
Ideal for:
- Instant deployment – pipelines spin up in seconds; index Optimism instantly
- Live data previews – inspect what every part of your pipelines produce in real-time
- TypeScript transforms – execute custom logic with WebAssembly
- Dynamic tables – unlimted filtering on addresses & contracts without redeploying
- Local debugging – iterate on Optimism data on your machine
Mirror
Stream Optimism data directly into your own database for maximum control. Designed for scaling ambitious projects and unlocking full ownership of your data.
Ideal for:
- Teams building on Optimism who need full control over data storage, infrastructure, and processing
- Combining on-chain Optimism data with off-chain data
- Ultra-low latency for the most demanding apps
- Multi-chain projects expanding into Optimism or building cross-chain functionality
- High traffic and throughput scenarios
Subgraphs
Query Optimism data with an instant GraphQL API. Perfect for familiarity, fast setups, on-chain data queries, and getting to market quickly.
Ideal for:
- Teams building on Optimism who want quick setup & minimal infrastructure overhead
- Production-ready Optimism API endpoints
- Moderate traffic and throughput scenarios
- Predefined data models and standard query patterns
- On-chain data from EVM-compatible chains
Get an Optimism RPC endpoint

Optimism data: frequently asked questions
What is Optimism?
Optimism is a blockchain network supported by Goldsky for real-time data indexing and streaming. Goldsky makes it easy to access Optimism data through subgraphs, data pipelines, and RPC endpoints, so your team spends less time on infrastructure and more time building your product.
How do I start indexing Optimism data with Goldsky?
Sign up for a free Goldsky account, then deploy a subgraph or pipeline against Optimism in minutes. Goldsky handles node infrastructure, reorg detection, and data freshness automatically.
Can I run a subgraph on Optimism?
Yes. Goldsky Subgraphs run on Optimism and are fully compatible with The Graph protocol, so you can migrate existing subgraphs with a single CLI command. Queries are served via a standard GraphQL API with sub-second indexing latency.
How do I stream Optimism data to my database or data warehouse?
Goldsky Mirror streams Optimism blockchain data in real time to destinations like PostgreSQL, BigQuery, S3, Kafka, and more. You define a pipeline in a YAML config and Goldsky handles delivery, reorgs, and schema management. No custom ETL code required.
Does Goldsky offer a Optimism RPC endpoint?
Yes. Goldsky Edge provides a low-latency Optimism RPC endpoint with global edge distribution, high availability, and automatic failover. It is a drop-in replacement for any standard EVM JSON-RPC provider.
How much does it cost to index Optimism data with Goldsky?
Goldsky offers a free plan with generous limits so you can start building right away. Paid plans scale with usage. Creating an account is free and no credit card is required to get started.
How fresh is the Optimism data available through Goldsky?
Goldsky indexes Optimism blocks as they land on-chain, typically delivering data with sub-second latency after confirmation. Reorgs are handled automatically, so your application always reflects the current canonical chain state.
