grafbase
Grafbase is a high-performance GraphQL Federation Gateway designed to unify microservices and APIs for mission-critical applications.
Grafbase is a self-hosted, Rust-powered GraphQL Federation Gateway that enables teams to integrate various microservices, legacy systems, and third-party APIs seamlessly. It is built for high-scale applications, providing superior performance and efficiency, allowing teams to ship faster and more safely. With its federation-first architecture and support for Apollo Federation v2, Grafbase ensures that applications can leverage advanced GraphQL capabilities effectively. In addition to its performance benefits, Grafbase offers enterprise-grade security features, including advanced schema governance, fine-grained authorization, and compliance with SOC 2 Type II standards. The platform is extensible via WebAssembly, allowing for custom authentication and integration of arbitrary APIs into a federated graph. Grafbase is also the first GraphQL gateway to support the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling developers to create robust and context-aware GraphQL APIs.
