# Welcome to Proxima

Proxima provides real-time data from the blockchain in the form of composable streams and data APIs with the ability (in the future) to quickly verify the data without trust in our services.

### Problems with Web 3&#x20;

* *Network isolation (data cannot be used outside of blockchain)*
* *Data inconsistency because of block forks (rollbacks)*
* *Problems with the uptime of nodes*
* *Lack of accessible and useable application-specific data*
* *Non-feasible price for complex on-chain computations*

### Benefits of using Proxima

Our platform features different benefits for gaining data:

* *Real-time data with low latency*
* *Generalized models for multi-chain access*
* *Data consistency*
* *Scalable infrastructure*

### Use cases &#x20;

Streams and built-in APIs can be used in various ways: quant trading, blockchain analytics, wallet integration, fetching application-specific data, and much more!

### Components

Solutions provided by Proxima can be divided into separate yet related parts:

* [Streaming platform](/proxima/streams/overview.md) — services providing real-time streams with application-specific data;
* [Data APIs](/proxima/data-apis/apis.md) that are based on those streams and allow fast access to aggregated data;
* [Maru](/proxima/maru/introduction.md) — a component providing ZK-proofs of data correctness.
