Eve Evolved: The Future of EVE's API

For the market data export, it'd be lovely to have a couple times a day static export of everything, dumped into a storage provider with a consumer-pays option (like AWS S3).

This has always been a core interest for players. Before the official APIs, there was Eve Market Data Relay (EMDR), a zeromq powered service players would run on their machines, which would watch the client updating local caches of market data & send it up to the relay. It was an incredible project. Makes me a little sad that market data is still so rationed-out/rate-limited by the official service, after years of players having kind of built something that was crude but worked. https://eve-market-data-relay.readthedocs.io/en/latest/overv...

One huge EMDR caveat was that market data was only as live as the last time any client quieried in-game! Its so good that the official API is live.

I wish more games would have APIs, would encourage read and especially read-write access to their sandboxes.
