2/ Aura offers decentralized & performant indexing of digital asset data so apps can easily read state without relying on centralized infrastructure.
It implements the next evolution of the Metaplex DAS API, the open-source technology that powers indexing on Solana today.
​
3/ With Aura, asset data is always accessible. Whether you’re a developer building new apps or a creator managing your collection, data is available quickly and securely, without relying on a single point of failure.
Integrated fully into the Metaplex Developer Platform 🦾
​
4/ Aura enables elastic state management, allowing assets to transition between SVM account space and different levels of state compression.
Unlock new functionality, such as the ability to rollup mint transactions & process batch operations, reducing transaction costs by 99%+.

5/ With the Aura Network, Metaplex is expanding to provide an end-to-end solution that makes application development seamless across Solana and the SVM.
Powered by $MPLX.

8/ Aura is currently live on Solana mainnet and devnet, which is accessible through a public gateway that will be integrated directly into the Metaplex developer platform.
Get started today by using the existing Bubblegum and DAS API SDKs. A new unified Aura SDK is coming soon.
