Custom Indexer

Establishing a custom indexer helps improve latency, allows pruning the data of your Sui full node, and provides efficient assemblage of checkpoint data.

Build Your First Custom Indexer

Build a custom indexer using the `sui-indexer-alt-framework` module. The example indexer demonstrates a sequential pipeline that extracts transaction digests from Sui checkpoints and stores them in a local PostgreSQL.

Custom Indexer and Walrus

Walrus is a content-addressable storage protocol, where data is retrieved using a unique identifier derived from the content itself, rather than from a file path or location. Integrating a custom Sui Indexer with Walrus can provide novel user experiences.

Indexer Data and Integration

Learn how to integrate custom data sources and storage systems with Sui indexers. Covers checkpoint data sources, custom store implementations, and Move event deserialization for building flexible indexing solutions.

Indexer Runtime and Performance

Learn how to optimize Sui custom indexer performance through runtime configuration, resource monitoring, and debugging tools. Covers ingestion settings, database tuning, Tokio console debugging, Prometheus metrics, and data pruning strategies.
