Über uns
We're a regular meetup of people interested in GraphQL and its ecosystem. We have speakers from all around the globe telling us about the latest developments in the GraphQL world.
What is GraphQL?
GraphQL is a query language for your API which lets developers describe the complex, nested data dependencies of modern applications. You can use GraphQL with any language or platform to define your backend as a well-defined schema. GraphQL makes it easy to build great developer tools, evolve your API over time, and query data efficiently from any client.
Facebook initially developed GraphQL in 2012 to power its native mobile apps, and released an open-source specification in 2015. GraphQL is now used in many environments and applications by teams of all sizes, including Twitter, GitHub, AirBnB, and Intuit.

🎙 Rethinking GraphQL Batching
🗣️ Michael Staib - ChilliCream
📍 Zürich, SwitzerlandWhile working on the GraphQL composite schema specification, we have explored GraphQL batching and have come up with a variety of new approaches to tackle it. In this talk, I will walk you through why batching is still needed in GraphQL and what problems it solves today. We will also explore some wild experiments with GraphQL batching prototypes that can form business flows to aggregate data, mutate it, and subscribe to updates of the flow with subscriptions. This talk is full of experiments that are to be further explored. So, join me!

🎙 Death, Taxes, and Deprecation
🗣️ Stephen Spalding - Netflix
🔗 http://stephenspalding.com/When we launched our new GraphQL API at Netflix, it felt perfect—destined to power hundreds of millions of devices. Yet, change is inevitable. Even if your schema seems flawless today (which it isn't), requirements will shift, new features will emerge, and regrets will follow.
GraphQL promises evolvability, allowing us to move forward without multiple API versions. But how does this hold up in practice? We mark fields as @deprecated, but what happens next? How can we embrace experimentation without entombing technical debt in the API? Does federation complicate things? Evolving your schema without breaking clients is easy, right? Right??
Drawing from experience with the Netflix API, this talk explores techniques for evolving your schema safely and painlessly. We'll cover the schema lifecycle—from experimentation to design, deprecation, and deletion.
Attendees will leave with:
- Schema design principles that facilitate change
- Practical techniques for evolving GraphQL schemas
- Strategies for managing a deprecation workflowJoin us as we learn to face the inevitability of change with confidence and serenity.
