Assessment

This issue has not been assessed yet.

Description

Once Atlas is production-ready, we should evaluate replacing or offering it alongside Blockscout in the ev-stacks/stacks/eth-explorer stack.

Why:

  • Atlas is purpose-built for ev-node chains — lighter footprint, faster indexing (binary COPY, cursor pagination), and simpler deployment (3 containers vs Blockscout's larger stack).
  • Repo: https://github.com/evstack/atlas

Action items:

  • Validate Atlas stability and feature coverage against current Blockscout usage
  • Add Atlas as a stack option in ev-stacks/stacks/eth-explorer
  • Decide whether to keep Blockscout as a fallback or fully replace

Not urgent — blocked on Atlas reaching confidence for production use.
