Polybase Overview
- What is Polybase?
Polybase is a low-cost, high-performance alternative to expensive and unscalable blockchain storage for structured. It supports a variety of operations such as creating, reading, updating, and deleting data with the flexibility and efficiency expected from modern database systems but with the added benefits of blockchain technology like immutability and data integrity.

Frequently asked questions
Polybase addresses the lack of privacy in blockchains by providing private transactions and MEV-resistance. It achieves this through the use of zk-STARKs, a pluggable architecture, and a developer-friendly interface.
MEV-resistance refers to the ability of a blockchain to mitigate the negative impact of Miner Extractable Value (MEV), which is the profit that miners can potentially make by manipulating the order and inclusion of transactions in a block. Polybase achieves MEV-resistance through the use of zero knowledge proofs (ZK proofs). ZK proofs allow for the verification of the correctness of a computation without revealing the underlying data or computation itself.
Polylang is a TypeScript-based programming language used in Polybase, a privacy-preserving decentralized database built on zk-STARKs.
