Skip to main contentAs Polybase infrastructure progresses towards more decentralization, client
libraries will communicate directly with the peer-to-peer Polybase indexer
network. The indexers store, index and allow you to query your data. More
information on the architecture of the network can be found in the
whitepaper.
Currently in the Alpha release, Polybase is running indexers in-house for speed
of development. We provide access to these indexers through a hosted service at
testnet.polybase.xyz. You can always view the network status using the
Polybase Explorer.
