InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
Its code in the node software that say on block X, we switch from miners to validators. https://ethmerge.com/ the graphic on this site is a good visual representation.
