- Space and Time aims to ensure accurate and tamperproof data for AI models through its data warehouse and dapp.
Space and Time, a leader in decentralized data, has announced the beta release of its data warehouse and developer suite, aiming to ensure that artificial intelligence (AI) models are trained on accurate, verifiable, tamperproof data. As AI continues to be integrated into modern business applications and processes, the Space and Time data warehouse offers a solution for developers to leverage provable computation against on-chain and off-chain data to power decentralized apps, smart contracts, and verifiable AI models.
The Space and Time data warehouse is a decentralized hybrid (HTAP) system that powers low-latency transactional queries and scalable analytics in a single cluster. The platform has developed a novel zero-knowledge proof called Proof of SQL, which cryptographically proves that query computation was done accurately and that both the query and the data are verifiably tamperproof.
One unique feature of Space and Time is that it comes pre-loaded with blockchain data indexed from major chains, decoded and provided for free. The data warehouse also includes pre-built APIs for SQL operations, blockchain data, Kafka streaming and security, as well as a Tamperproof Python service for easily extracting, transforming and loading data or running complex computations.
Space and Time’s dapp, a next-generation data frontend, provides a user-friendly interface for interacting with on-chain and off-chain data. The platform is OpenAI enabled, allowing developers to easily generate SQL queries, Python scripts, streams, oracle jobs, smart contracts, dashboards, and more from simple natural-language inputs.
“We are thrilled to open the Space and Time data warehouse and suite of data services to developers everywhere,” said Nate Holiday, CEO and Co-founder of Space and Time. “Space and Time is enabling a new era of data verifiability. As smart contracts and AI are increasingly integrated into business processes, Space and Time aims to ensure that they’re connected to and trained on verifiable data and computation.”
To demonstrate the capabilities of its platform, Space and Time is showcasing its newly launched data warehouse at this year’s Consensus conference in a live demo with Shrapnel, a highly anticipated blockchain-enabled AAA first-person shooter game. Attendees of the conference will be able to play the Shrapnel prototype as Space and Time generates live analytic insights around gameplay.
Mark Long, CEO of Shrapnel, points out that Web3 analytics are going to be critical to the success of blockchain games, and Space and Time has the best service available.
“Just like any Web2 free-to-play game, real-time analytics are how you improve the player experience. You need lightning-fast execution of data from on-chain transactions to in-game activity to leaderboards and more. And players want to know that all the data is accurate and verifiable,” Mark Long said.
“Space and Time is just the perfect complement to Shrapnel’s own blockchain and live-ops tech,” Mark Long added.
Space and Time’s ability to join tamperproof on-chain and off-chain data and connect the results back to smart contracts enables new, robust possibilities for blockchain gaming. The platform can relay information to and from a game’s servers and its smart contract in real-time to improve the game’s recommendation engines and match-making, help players understand what NFTs, weapons, and upgrades they should be buying, and facilitate more complex earning schemes on-chain.
