Web3 is in a tricky spot today, and not just because of high-profile bad actors casting an overlong shadow on the blockchain ecosystem. On-chain storage and write operations are incredibly slow (arguably by design), in order to ensure the security that blockchain-based systems promise.

Operational databases, analytic databases and distributed ledgers are all valid and different types of database management systems.

By syncing the state of the blockchain to an operational or analytic database in real-time, you ensure data accuracy/currency for your dApps to operate on quickly.

Analytic dApps: Integrating dApps with off-chain analytic databases open up the entire “Web 2.0” landscape of options and use cases.
