About This Episode

This episode of DevNTell features Dan Buchholz from Tableland, a decentralized cloud database designed for Web3 applications. Tableland provides a Web3-native SQL database built on top of EVM-compatible chains like Ethereum, Polygon, and Arbitrum. Buchholz demonstrates Tableland's ecosystem, including the Tableland Studio app and CLI tool, showcasing how developers can easily create, deploy, and manage SQL tables on-chain. Key aspects discussed include Tableland's architecture, which balances on-chain interactions with off-chain data materialization to optimize cost and performance, and various Web3 use cases such as application data storage, dynamic NFT metadata, and gaming states.
