GraphQL Development Services We Provide
GraphQL API Design and Development
Inefficient APIs slow down your applications and hurt user satisfaction. We design APIs that streamline data access, reduce latency, and enhance front-end performance, helping your applications run faster and deliver a smoother user experience that drives better results.
We build modular, type-safe schemas with Apollo Server and GraphQL Mesh, focusing on optimal query handling and complex data relationships. Our API design includes version control and automated testing, which creates a resilient and easily adaptable API structure.
Schema Management and Optimization
Disorganized schemas can slow your applications and limit scalability. We build structured, intuitive, and scalable GraphQL schemas that optimize data requests, improve performance, and support seamless integration across your application—laying the groundwork for long-term success.
Our team uses schema stitching and federation to combine data sources, adding query complexity limits for security. Tools like GraphQL linting help us maintain clean code, while directives prevent bottlenecks, keeping the schema lean and performant.
GraphQL Performance Tuning and Caching
Slow APIs and performance bottlenecks can disrupt user experiences and limit scalability. We fine-tune GraphQL performance with advanced caching strategies, keeping your API responsive under heavy traffic and boosting application speed and reliability.
We use DataLoader and Redis to batch and cache requests to reduce repetitive data fetching. Data is always timely without sacrificing speed, thanks to our caching approach, which includes stale-while-revalidate techniques.
Real-Time Data with GraphQL Subscriptions
Static data creates gaps in real-time applications like messaging or collaboration tools. Our GraphQL subscription solutions utilize WebSockets and server-sent events to deliver reliable data synchronization, supporting high user activity and creating a dynamic, responsive user experience that grows with your needs.
We use WebSockets and server-sent events to keep your data in sync, so that your app runs smoothly even with lots of users. Our team uses tools like Apollo Server and Redis to guarantee efficient real-time handling and minimize latency and server load.
Data Aggregation from Multiple Sources
Fragmented data from multiple sources can slow down development and complicate workflows. Our GraphQL solutions aggregate data from REST APIs, SQL/NoSQL databases, and third-party services into a unified schema, simplifying access and accelerating application performance for a more efficient development process.
Using GraphQL Mesh and Apollo Federation, we consolidate and manage data with middleware for secure access. This approach reduces redundant API calls and creates a streamlined, centralized data structure for your app.
GraphQL Security and Compliance
Vulnerabilities in your GraphQL API can expose sensitive data and put your applications at risk. We implement advanced security measures, including query depth limiting, rate limiting, and automated threat detection, to protect your API from misuse and attacks.
Our team uses tools like Apollo Shield and integrates compliance standards like GDPR and HIPAA to secure data access and make sure your applications meet regulatory requirements. This proactive approach safeguards your API and builds trust with users and stakeholders.

The GraphQL Ecosystem We Used in Previous Work
Schema Management and GraphQL API Design
Managing and designing schemas is fundamental in GraphQL for flexibility and maintainability across different services.
- Apollo Server: Offers schema stitching, modular schema design, and real-time subscriptions for live data.
- GraphQL Mesh: Allows schema stitching across diverse data sources, creating a unified GraphQL schema from REST APIs, SQL databases, gRPC, and more.
Type Safety and Code Generation
Type safety and code generation tools minimize runtime errors and reduce manual coding effort by synchronizing generated code with the schema.
- GraphQL Code Generator: Generates TypeScript or JavaScript code, creating type-safe queries, mutations, and schema-based typing across the project.
- Prisma: Acts as a type-safe ORM, generating auto-mapped queries and mutations to support complex data operations directly from your database schema.
Efficient Data Fetching and State Management
Efficient data fetching and managing application state are critical for performance and user experience, especially in complex front-end applications.
- Apollo Client: Provides normalized caching, error handling, and powerful integration with React to manage application state seamlessly.
- DataLoader: Combines and caches requests to minimize database calls, effectively handling the N+1 problem and optimizing query performance.
Real-Time Collaboration and Developer Experience
Tools that improve developer experience and collaboration help streamline the development process, making it easier to manage, debug, and evolve the GraphQL API.
- GraphQL Playground: An interactive IDE with syntax highlighting, autocomplete, real-time schema documentation, and query history to support easier testing and debugging.
- Apollo Studio: A cloud-based platform offering end-to-end GraphQL monitoring, schema management, and collaborative documentation for improved team workflow.
Performance Optimization and Monitoring
Monitoring and optimizing the performance of GraphQL queries are essential for scalability and responsiveness.
- Apollo Studio: Provides real-time performance monitoring, schema version control, and tracking of query usage to identify bottlenecks and optimize performance.
- Apollo Server: Integrates with Apollo Studio to track and optimize query performance directly from the server side.
Database Management and Migrations
Efficient database management and migration tools enable reliable data operations and support schema evolution as the API and application grow.
- Prisma: Offers a developer-friendly interface for database access with type-safe database queries and built-in migration management, making data operations more reliable.
