plugport

Verifiable database that speaks MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL and Redis wire protocols, backed by MonadDb. Co-built with a small team.

PlugPort lets an existing app keep its usual database drivers (mongosh, psql, mysql, redis-cli and their Node, Python and Go clients) while the data lives in a verifiable store on MonadDb’s Merkle Patricia Trie. Every protocol goes through one translation layer into the same document store. Auth is wallet-based (SIWE and on-chain API keys), with gasless meta-transactions and AES-256-GCM encryption for private collections.

I co-built PlugPort with a small team. My work was mostly on the server and dashboard in the v4 release:

Server

  • Real auth on every wire protocol, with per-wallet namespaces and TLS on the wire connections
  • Customer isolation: per-customer private stores, encrypted and held on the private contract, and the first wallet to write to a collection becomes its owner
  • Reliability: one failed RPC call no longer takes the server down; RPC rate limits are respected with an ordered fallback chain across providers
  • Gas station: split one all-purpose key into per-role wallets and serialised transactions through a shared nonce sequencer
  • Performance and limits: the key index loads from a snapshot instead of replaying the log, usage analytics are batched, and the memory a client can make the server hold is bounded
  • Query fixes: MySQL, aggregate and HAVING support, SQL joins over HTTP, and indexed queries on the chain store
  • VPS deployment, and fixes for more than 20 traced bugs

Dashboard and operations

  • A redesigned dashboard with EIP-712 key signing, automatic switching to Monad Testnet, and privacy settings that default to private
  • Fixed on-chain API keys that could never authenticate, and stale-nonce meta-transactions
  • Grafana alerts to Telegram for crashes, memory, failing writes and low-gas wallets
