Oracles
Oracles are data feeds that enable smart contracts on the blockchain to access off-chain data sources. This functionality is crucial, as Ethereum-based smart contracts are inherently unable to access information stored outside the blockchain network by default. For further information, you can explore Ethereum's Oracle documentation.
There are already oracle services available on Conflux eSpace.
