AZW3: Web3 Data Pipeline for Model Ingestion

License: MIT Open Source Stack Agnostic Production Ready

Transform high-volume blockchain chaos into structured, ML-ready features with world-class data ingestion standards.

AZW3 is a free, open-source, community-driven data pipeline that transforms raw blockchain data into production-ready features for machine learning models. Built with maximum portability and plug-and-play architecture, it seamlessly integrates with any tech stackβ€”from Python to Node.js, from cloud to on-premise.

🌟 Why AZW3?

The Challenge

Blockchains generate millions of transactions and events daily, creating massive data throughput challenges:

  • 1.5+ TB of raw data daily (e.g., Ethereum Mainnet)
  • Unstructured, chaotic blockchain events
  • Complex smart contract interactions
  • Need for real-time and historical data synthesis

The Solution

AZW3 provides instant model data ingestion by world-class standards:

  • βœ… Zero-configuration integration with your existing stack
  • βœ… Medallion Architecture (Bronze β†’ Silver β†’ Gold) for data quality
  • βœ… Multi-source ingestion (Real-time events, historical blocks, off-chain APIs)
  • βœ… Production-ready features for ML models
  • βœ… Stack-agnostic designβ€”works everywhere

πŸš€ Quick Start

Installation

# Python
pip install azw3

# Node.js
npm install azw3

# Docker
docker pull azw3/pipeline:latest

Basic Usage

from azw3 import Pipeline

# Initialize with your stack
pipeline = Pipeline(
    stack='python',  # or 'nodejs', 'java', 'go', etc.
    config={
        'rpc_endpoint': 'https://your-rpc-endpoint',
        'storage': 's3://your-bucket'  # or any storage backend
    }
)

# Start ingestion - it's that simple!
pipeline.start()
// Node.js
const { Pipeline } = require('azw3');

const pipeline = new Pipeline({
  stack: 'nodejs',
  config: {
    rpcEndpoint: 'https://your-rpc-endpoint',
    storage: 's3://your-bucket'
  }
});

pipeline.start();

πŸ“Š Architecture

Medallion Architecture Process

AZW3 transforms raw blockchain data through a proven 3-layer architecture:

πŸ₯‰ BronZE Layer: Raw Ingestion

  • Full blocks, raw transactions, and un-decoded logs
  • Immutable, uncleaned, schema-on-read
  • Preserves complete blockchain history

πŸ₯ˆ SILVER Layer: Cleaned & Normalized

  • Raw data decoded using Smart Contract ABIs
  • Transactions filtered, cleaned, and structured
  • Validated tables ready for transformation

πŸ₯‡ GOLD Layer: Feature Store Ready

  • Aggregated time-series and behavioral features
  • ML-ready features (TVL, user frequency, gas patterns)
  • Optimized for model consumption

Data Ingestion Sources

  • 45% Real-Time Events (WebSocket streams, event logs)
  • 35% Historical Blocks (Full chain history, backfills)
  • 20% Off-Chain APIs (Price feeds, metadata, external context)

🎯 Use Cases

AZW3 is optimized for a wide range of ML applications:

Use Case Suitability Score Description
Anomaly Detection ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (9/10) Detect suspicious transactions, fraud patterns
Price Prediction ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (8/10) Time-series forecasting for tokens, NFTs
Risk Modeling ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (8/10) Assess protocol risks, liquidity analysis
User Segmentation ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (7/10) Behavioral clustering, wallet profiling
DEX Arbitrage ⭐⭐⭐ (6/10) Identify cross-exchange opportunities
