Some details
Main challenges:
▸ The ever-growing amount of data being constantly added to the blockchain, requiring a valid solution to allow restarting of a local system from scratch that could synchronize with the current blockchain data over a reasonable amount of time
▸ A sound usage of system resources, optimized to allow deployment and execution without an unreasonably demanding system environment
▸ Providing
a powerful web-ReST-API which in turn enables non-trivial analytical queries to be performed from the web, with expressivity that approaches that of a relational database engine▸ Guarantees about stability and robustness of the system, which should display consistent information, be able to be safely restarted with no data loss and proceed with its work, and be monitored for progress and usage
