Date & Time
Wednesday, September 11, 2019, 1:50 PM - 2:10 PM
Description
GraphQL APIs offer greater flexibility than traditional REST APIs and are particularly suited for mobile app development. Exposing a GraphQL API is also becoming an expected part of the API offering of many platforms. GraphQL APIs work differently to traditional REST APIs and also present some unique operational challenges.

In this session, Ben Morgan will get you ready to build and run a GraphQL API. The session is focussed on the design and operational side. We will cover the basics of GraphQL; design patterns for GraphQL; how to operate a GraphQL API; and take a look at available tooling.
