Data availability and modular infra: Celestia, EigenDA, Avail, modular rollups and Web3 backend positioning

Comparison updated: 2026-09-12

Coverage: 13/15 providers have at least one evidenced comparison dimension; 0/15 have evidence in every dimension.

> “Not publicly verified” means the captured primary-source pages did not provide sufficient evidence for that cell. It does not mean the provider lacks the capability.

How to read this comparison

  • Each column is a buyer-relevant dimension for this topic.
  • Publicly evidenced means a direct vendor source supports that dimension; it is not an inferred capability score.
  • Follow the source links to verify exact scope, availability and contract terms.

Cross-provider comparison

  • Breadth: 13 of 15 providers publish at least one directly evidenced signal for this topic.
  • Complete public evidence: 0 of 15 cover every comparison dimension in the monitored public surface.
  • Open evidence gaps: Pocket Network / Grove, LlamaRPC.
  • Buyer use: shortlist by required dimensions, then verify exact scope, availability, limits and contractual terms with the vendor.

Research priorities

  1. Replace “not publicly verified” cells with direct product, documentation, trust-center or contractual evidence.
  2. Add quantitative values where the topic supports like-for-like comparison (latency, throughput, chain count, SLA or support response time).
  3. Re-check volatile claims before external sales use; the dated research log remains the provenance trail.
