New Developments in Google Cloud's AI and Blockchain Offerings

Google Cloud has partnered with SQD to enhance its blockchain data analytics capabilities within BigQuery. This collaboration allows users to access SQD-validated onchain data, which is crucial for enterprise analytics and web3 applications.

SQD Network provides a decentralized infrastructure that supports querying the increasing volume of blockchain data. Their system includes a network of data providers and gateways that distribute datasets securely across nodes.

Each blockchain block is subjected to six cryptographic checks to ensure data accuracy and integrity before being integrated into Google Cloud's analytics platform. The partnership aims to expand support for additional blockchain chains and introduce more agentic features in the future.
