Select the option that best describes your situation:

Cloud Migration

Migrate your Cloud squids from gateways to Portal for improved performance and stability.

SDK Migration

Migrate SDK-based squids running locally or self-hosted from gateways to Portal.

RPC Migration

Local Development

Set up Portal locally for development and testing with your own devnet or testnet.

Self-Hosting

Run your own Portal instance for complete control over your data infrastructure.

​
Cloud Migration by Network Type

If you’re using SQD Cloud, choose your network type:

EVM & Substrate

Migrate squids running on EVM or Substrate networks to Cloud Portal.

Solana

Migrate Solana squids to Portal with real-time data support.

​
Why Migrate to Portal?

Migrating to Portal provides significant benefits over traditional gateways and centralized services.
  • Reduced reliance on centralized services: The permissionless SQD Network consists of over 2500 nodes ran by independent operators
  • Improved stability: With a total capacity of roughly 2Pb, the permissionless SQD Network provides significant redundancy
  • Improved speed: Portals use available bandwidth more effectively than gateways. Data fetching is 5-10 times faster in our tests
  • Future-proof: All future development will focus on portals and the permissionless SQD Network
