WORKSHOP
Getting Started with Hasura
In this 90 minute workshop, you will set up a Powerful, Scalable Realtime GraphQL Backend complete with Queries, Mutations, and Subscriptions. You will also learn how Hasura helps you integrate custom business logic (in any programming language), both as custom GraphQL APIs that you write yourself, and as Event Triggers that run asynchronously and are triggered by database events.
Takeaways
  • Hasura Basics: Use Hasura to generate the realtime GraphQL API powered by a Postgres database
  • Authorization: Setup authorization so that app users can only run operations on data that they should be allowed to
  • Authentication: Integrate a JWT based auth provider (using Auth0) with Hasura
  • Remote schemas: Add a custom GraphQL resolver to create an API for fetching data that is not in the database
  • Event triggers: Run business logic on the backend when there are database events
Requirements
  • Familiarity with GraphQL

WORKSHOP
Creating and Federating Data Across a Unified GraphQL API
Most organizations use multiple datastores. There are many reasons your organization might be looking to adopt a new datastore - for example, to move certain workloads of an existing application to a specialized datastore or to set up a modern application on a new Database.

In this talk, we’ll cover how you can set up a unified GraphQL API for your organization so that you are able to access data from existing & new data sources - databases, microservices & SaaS services (GraphQL & REST) simultaneously while offering a consistent API experience to your developers.
Takeaways
  • Accessing all your data with a unified GraphQL API no matter where it lives
  • A deep dive on Hasura’s remote join features
  • An overview of setup, security (authorisation), and performance
Requirements
  • Familiarity with Hasura & GraphQL

WORKSHOP
Automated GraphQL Application Security Testing
We’ve all heard the buzz around pushing application security into the hands of developers. But if you’re like most companies, it has been hard to actually make this a reality. You aren’t alone – putting the culture, processes, and tooling in place to make this happen is tough, especially for sophisticated applications like those backed by GraphQL. In this hands-on technical session, StackHawk Senior DevOps Engineer, Zachary Conger, will walk through how to protect your GraphQL APIs from vulnerabilities using automated security testing. Get ready to roll-up your sleeves for automated AppSec testing.
