GraphQL provides benefits for both frontend and backend developers by sitting between them in the tech stack. It allows frontend developers to fetch only the necessary data in a simple way, and backend developers can implement efficient APIs and refactor to microservices more easily. Tools are being developed that take advantage of GraphQL's query structure to provide autocomplete, static analysis, caching, and more integrated capabilities. GraphQL enables building new developer tools by providing a standardized specification and introspection capabilities.
GraphQL across the stack: How everything fits togetherSashko Stubailo
My talk from GraphQL Summit 2017!
In this talk, I talk about a future for GraphQL which builds on the idea that GraphQL enables lots of tools to work together seamlessly across the stack. I present this through the lens of 3 examples: Caching, performance tracing, and schema stitching.
Stay tuned for the video recording from GraphQL Summit!
In this talk, I go over some of the concerns people initially have when adding GraphQL to their existing frontends and backends, and cover some of the tools that can be used to address them.
GraphQL is a wonderful abstraction for describing and querying data. Apollo is an ambitious project to help you build apps with GraphQL. In this talk, we'll go over how all the parts—Client, Server, Dev Tools, Codegen, and more—create an end-to-end experience for building apps on top of any data.
## Detailed description
In today's development ecosystem, there are tons of options for almost every part of your application development process: UI rendering, styling, server side rendering, build systems, type checking, databases, frontend data management, and more. However, there's one part of the stack that hasn't gotten as much love in the last decade, because it usually falls in the cracks between frontend and backend developers: Data fetching.
The most common way to load data in apps today is to use a REST API on the server and manage the data manually on the client. Whether you're using Redux, MobX, or something else, you're usually doing everything yourself—deciding when to load data, how to keep it fresh, updating the store after sending updates to the server, and more. But if you're trying to develop the best user experience for your app, all of that gets in the way; you shouldn't have to become a systems engineer to create a great frontend. The Apollo project is based on the belief that data loading doesn't have to be complicated; instead, you should be able to easily get the data you want, when you want it, and it should be managed for you just like React manages updating your UI.
Because data loading touches both the frontend and backend of your app, GraphQL and Apollo have to include many parts to fulfill that promise of being able to seamlessly connect your data together. First, we need client libraries not only for React and JavaScript, but also for native iOS and Android. Then, we must bring server-side support for GraphQL queries, mutations, and most recently subscriptions to every server technology and make those servers easier to write. And finally, we want not only all of the tools that people are used to with REST APIs, but many more thanks to all of the capabilities enabled by GraphQL.
In this talk, we'll go over all of the parts of a GraphQL-oriented app architecture, and how different GraphQL and Apollo technologies come together to solve all of the parts of data loading and management for React developers.
What if you could create a GraphQL API by combining many smaller APIs? That's what we're aiming for with schema stitching, the new feature in the Apollo graphql-tools package.
GraphQL: The Missing Link Between Frontend and Backend DevsSashko Stubailo
Engineers working on backend data services are often focused on operational concerns like data consistency, reliability, uptime, and storage efficiency. Because each situation calls for a specific set of tradeoffs, one organization can end up with a diverse set of backend databases and services. For the people building the UI and frontend API layers, this diversity can quickly become an issue, especially if the same client needs to call into multiple backends or fetch related objects across different data sources.
GraphQL is a language-agnostic API gateway technology designed precisely to solve this mismatch between backend and frontend requirements. It provides a highly structured, yet flexible API layer that lets the client specify all of its data requirements in one GraphQL query, without needing to know about the backend services being accessed. Better yet, because of the structured, strongly typed nature of both GraphQL queries and APIs, it's possible to quickly get critical information, such as which objects and fields are accessed by which frontends, which clients will be affected by specific changes to the backend, and more.
In this talk, I'll explain what GraphQL is, what data management problems it can solve in an organization, and how you can try it today.
GraphQL is quickly becoming mainstream as one of the best ways to get data into your React application. When we see people modernize their app architecture and move to React, they often want to migrate their API to GraphQL as part of the same effort. But while React is super easy to adopt in a small part of your app at a time, GraphQL can seem like a much larger investment. In this talk, we’ll go over the fastest and most effective ways for React developers to incrementally migrate their existing APIs and backends to GraphQL, then talk about opportunities for improvement in the space. If you’re using React and are interested in GraphQL, but are looking for an extra push to get it up and running at your company, this is the talk for you!

Incremental demos until calling GraphQL from an React application: https://github.com/bary822/graphQL-techtalk
GraphQL is an application layer query language from Facebook. With GraphQL, you can define your backend as a well-defined graph-based schema. Then client applications can query your dataset as they are needed. GraphQL’s power comes from a simple idea — instead of defining the structure of responses on the server, the flexibility is given to the client. Will GraphQL do to REST what REST did to SOAP?
GraphQL can be one of the best ways to make your product development more fun and productive. In this presentation I talk about how GraphQL makes your life simpler, and how to write and deploy a GraphQL API with Apollo Server 2.0 and serverless deployment via Netlify Functions.

Implementing OpenAPI and GraphQL services with gRPCTim Burks
Behind every API there's code. REST and GraphQL are powerful interface abstractions but are not so great for writing code (we’re still looking for the programming language where every command is a GET, POST, PUT, or DELETE). When programmers work, they are usually making function calls, and an RPC framework like gRPC allows those functions to be written in a mixture of languages and distributed among many servers. This means that gRPC can be a great way to implement REST and GraphQL APIs at scale. We’ll share open source projects from Google that can be used to implement OpenAPI and GraphQL services with gRPC and give you hands-on experience with both.
Presented at the 2019 API Specifications Conference.

Your API on Steroids - Retrofitting GraphQL by Code, Cloud Native or ServerlessQAware GmbH
OOP 2023, Online, Februar 2023, Sonja Wegner (Lead Software Architect @QAware) & Stefan Schmöller (Senior Software Engineer @QAware).
== Dokument bitte herunterladen, falls unscharf! Please download slides if blurred! ==
With GraphQL a modern and flexible way of providing APIs for our data is emerging.
The clients specify which data they need, the provisioning of data becomes more flexible and dynamic. Over-fetching or under-fetching are history.
But does this mean we have to rewrite all APIs to benefit? How can we retrofit a GraphQL API onto our existing API landscape?
In this talk we explore three different alternatives:
- The Developer Way: Writing a GraphQL API layer by hand
- The Cloud-native Way: Using lightweight API gateways such as Gloo or Tyk
- The Serverless Way: Using Cloud Provider native services
We will look at all three approaches conceptually and justify when and why each makes sense. Additionally, we will show in a live demo how GraphQL APIs can be added to an existing REST API.

Composable Parallel Processing in Apache Spark and WeldDatabricks
The main reason people are productive writing software is composability -- engineers can take libraries and functions written by other developers and easily combine them into a program. However, composability has taken a back seat in early parallel processing APIs. For example, composing MapReduce jobs required writing the output of every job to a file, which is both slow and error-prone. Apache Spark helped simplify cluster programming largely because it enabled efficient composition of parallel functions, leading to a large standard library and high-level APIs in various languages. In this talk, I'll explain how composability has evolved in Spark's newer APIs, and also present a new research project I'm leading at Stanford called Weld to enable much more efficient composition of software on emerging parallel hardware (multicores, GPUs, etc).

Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
JASMIN is the UK’s high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERC’s long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.

Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.

2. A special place in the stack
Right between frontend and backend devs
3. Backend devs implement the API
GraphQL is an API technology, so it must make sense to backend people:
- Describe data with strong types
- Potential for more efficient responses because of explicit fields
- Easy to refactor backend to microservices
What do you get as a frontend dev?
4. Speed up your UI development workflow
GraphQL enables next-generation
tools that let you think less about
data fetching.
Think about what data you need,
and it’s there.
5. How do you query a GraphQL API?
// REST
fetch(`api.server.com/posts/1`).then(...)
// GraphQL - no special tools needed!
fetch(`api.server.com/graphql?
query={ post(id: 1) { title, content } }`).then(...)
6. Benefits over REST, without special client tools
- Know exactly which fields we are going to get
- Documentation and data exploration built in (something you usually only
get with BaaS!)
- Nested data fetching is trivial
8. Getting at the query structure
- Tag the query to designate that it’s GraphQL
- Use a simple regex or AST traversal to find
all of the queries
- Alternative: put in .graphql files
Now the GraphQL query is far more than a “magic
string” -- it’s a semantic unit of data fetching
const query = gql`
query HumanQuery {
human(id: "1000") {
name
height(unit: FOOT)
}
}
`;
9. Static query validation and analysis
Without running the UI:
- Typos in fields
- Wrong arguments
- Deprecated fields
- Identify field usage

10. In-editor autocomplete
- Today: in IntelliJ
- Tomorrow: everywhere

GraphQL AST: Super nice to work with, matches up with the spec 1:1, you can
use AST explorer: astexplorer.net
Introspection: Every GraphQL server is required to provide info in a standard
format that works with all tools: graphql.org/learn/introspection/
13. How might we cache REST?
1. Use URL as cache key
fetchOrLoadFromCache(`/posts/1`)
2. Write custom normalizer for Redux: decompose responses into objects, store
them in separate fields. Might need to handle different endpoints manually,
depending on your API design.
14. Caching GraphQL: Easier or harder?
Using URLs or queries isn’t great:
fetchOrLoadFromCache(`/graphql?query={...}`)
But we gain much more potential: A fancy query structure that tells us exactly what
fields we’re looking for.
15. Example: Overlapping queries
query bigQuery {
post(id: 1) {
title, content
author { name, age }
}
}
query smallQuery {
post(id: 1) {
title, content
}
}
Easy to prefetch data and get subsets of previous queries.
16. Formalize as paths
What’s the atom of GraphQL data? A leaf field.
post(id: 1) -> title // bigQuery, smallQuery
post(id: 1) -> content // bigQuery, smallQuery
post(id: 1) -> author -> name // bigQuery
post(id: 1) -> author -> age // bigQuery
Lets us easily reason about the data we have fetched, replaces the URLs from
REST. This is how Apollo Client works out of the box.
17. Cache consistency
query Sidebar {
postFeed {
title
}
}
query Post {
post(id: 1) {
title
content
}
}
How do we make the title field for the post refer to
one location in the cache?
18. Cache consistency
postFeed[0] -> title -> 'Original title'
post(id: 1) -> title -> 'New title'
How do we make the title field for the post refer to
one location in the cache?
19. Defining cache IDs for the client
Could be server-side like Relay or client-side like Apollo
(obj) => obj.__typename + ':' + obj.id
20. Paths with IDs
Now we can easily keep our cache consistent!
postFeed[0] -> (id: 1)
post(id: 1) -> (id: 1)
(id: 1) -> title -> 'New title'
22. Updating the store updates the UI
Smart clients execute the queries when the store changes,
keeping your UI consistent
query Sidebar {
postFeed {
title
}
}
23. Full data loading path
Smart clients execute the queries when the store changes,
keeping your UI consistent
query Sidebar {
postFeed {
title
}
}
Fetcher
query Sidebar {
postFeed {
title
}
}
Normalizer
24. Updates can come from anywhere
It’s like automated Flux, which takes advantage of the
GraphQL query structure
query Sidebar {
postFeed {
title
}
}
Other
queries
Mutation
results
Subscription
results
Redux
actions
