API Modernization
Low Code

Fast-track your modernization with the right API strategy

APIs are critical to most modernization initiatives, from data modernization to monolith decomposition. However, the current building methods for securing, tuning, testing, and deploying APIs on data are lengthy, expensive, and slow down modernization efforts.

In this white paper, you’ll:

  • Explore the common bottlenecks in a traditional API development workflow
  • Dive into how low-code API tools like Hasura addresses everday challenges:
    • -  Boilerplate CRUD
    • -  Declarative authorization
    • -  Performance optimization
    • -  Production readiness
    • -  Federated access
  • Discover the business impact of accelerating API development
Data Mesh
Data Access

Data mesh and GraphQL: Democratizing data access for enterprise excellence

If you’ve landed here, you’re likely looking for improved solutions for sharing data across teams and your organization. As data only continues to multiply and mount, data access issues abound, from data types to how we use it and make sense of it to achieve business goals.

In this white paper, you’ll:

  • Learn more about why current data systems are inflexible -Discover how a data mesh architecture:
    • -  Decentralizes data ownership for faster access
    • -  Treats domain-oriented data as a product
    • -  Creates an underlying self-serve infrastructure
    • -  Ensures data is shared securely and effectively
  • Find out how and why GraphQL and data mesh go hand-in-hand
