GraphQL Architecture Design & Implementation
What I Offer
Schema-first API design with type safety and validation built in. Federated GraphQL architecture for microservices. Query optimization to eliminate N+1 problems. Real-time subscriptions for live data. DataLoader patterns for efficient batching.
Real-World Example
A healthcare company had 7 legacy systems with 8-second data retrieval times. I helped them architect a federated GraphQL gateway that unified all systems into a single query language, reducing response times to 400ms.
Typical Outcomes
- 65-75% reduction in API calls (N+1 elimination)
- Sub-100ms query response times
- Single GraphQL layer replacing dozens of REST endpoints
- Type-safe contracts between frontend and backend
- Built-in request tracing for compliance audits
