Short description: Ongoing costs for the running of high performance, scalable, and reliable data indexing infrastructure for most of the Polkadot and Kusama ecosystem (and growing).
Raw data: Archive Infrastructure metrics - July, August, September
Requested KSM: 1,440.62 KSM*
*added 33.33 KSM due to bond associated with our proposal in governance 1.0. This proposal supersedes the proposal made with governance 1.0 = https://kusama.polkassembly.io/treasury/246

Archives are an important piece of Polkadot and Kusama data infrastructure provided by Subsquid. They provide access to on-chain data in GraphQL format for all major parachains on Kusama and Polkadot, with more chains getting support as the ecosystem grows. They are being used as a data source for Squids and for efficient data exploration and ad-hoc queries. An up-to-date list of Archives is kept in a public Archive Registry
At the end of Q2 Subsquid released a new generation of Archives, together with a major version of the SDK, both code named “Fire Squid”.
The improvements brought by this release include:
Between 2022-09-03 (when tracking has started) and 2022-09-30 Subsquid’s Archive infrastructure has collectively:

Subsquid Lab Official is requesting 1,440.62 KSM to cover the ongoing costs of running high performance, scalable, and reliable data indexing infrastructure for most of the Polkadot and Kusama ecosystem. The infrastructure provides access to on-chain data in GraphQL format for all major parachains on Kusama and Polkadot. The new generation of Archives, called "Fire Squid," has brought substantial performance improvements, including the ability to deploy a new Archive for a chain as big as Kusama, and the indexing to be ready in roughly a day. Between September 3 and September 30, Subsquid's Archive infrastructure served a total of 129,468,038.2 (~129 million) queries.
