GraphQL Sydney February 2024

We're back for the first GraphQL Sydney meetup for 2024. We're in-person, and online, so come and join us from wherever you are!

Our speakers:

Visualizing the N+1 data fetching in GraphQL
Dinesh Pandiyan

A visual walkthrough of the N+1 data fetching problem and why it's more prominent in GraphQL than other tools. I have published an npm package - next-batch to help solve this problem in GraphQL resolvers. I would like to walk through that package and showcase how it works and how it compares to the popular dataloader package that we all love and use in all our GraphQL implementations.

GraphQL Fusion: Rethinking Distributed GraphQL
Michael Staib

In this talk, we're unpacking GraphQL Fusion, a new approach that makes building distributed GraphQL APIs easier. We'll explore how this approach lets your teams work independently by owning different parts of the company's graph and cover how you can reshape subgraphs to follow your company's rules. Come learn about this powerful tool that brings efficiency and customization to your GraphQL operations.
