They developed a solution, and open sourced it as GraphQL.

I'm using the Official GraphQL, HowToGraphQL and several other websites to curate my own notes on GraphQL.

Your cloud architecture, system design and project leadership skills should be more important than language specifics when interviewing. That being said, I recommend learning about Node.js internals (e.g. the event loop); ES6+ language improvements; and some trending tools and libraries like TypeScript, Docker, Serverless Framework and GraphQL. Know enough about Express and serverless functions justify using one over the other when designing a system.

API stands for Application Programming Interface. APIs define how two pieces of software can connect and talk to each other. If your application were a big company, your API's job would be to keep in touch with external parties (customers or company partners, for example). Most APIs are organized around some standard, like REST or GraphQL, so that everybody knows how to use them.

GraphQL is developed by Facebook initially for their mobile app and has been adopted widely across web apps.

Last week, I built a microservice: a resource for a section of the landing page of the platform, which renders from a database loaded with data. In technical terms, I built and consumed an API. I used Dynamo DB (a database provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS))) to store my data, creating a table with desired fields for me to use in populating my table. GraphQL was used as playground for me to query and mutate my database. i.e. a way of creating, reading, updating and deleting information from the database, a process technically known as CRUD.

GraphQL, if you are not familiar, is a way of having APIs which are query-able similar to SQL for a database.

More than that, it's a good idea for storing non-sensitive data across the application. It might be a Redux or GraphQL state or some global app-wide variables. On the other hand, you shouldn’t use that for storing tokens and secrets, as the storage is not encrypted in any way.

AWS AppSync is a fully managed GraphQL API which is a serverless offering by AWS.

⚠️The abstractions proposed in this paper will be soon implemented in booster, the algorithms proposed are proven correct in this repository. A solution to a real world problem with these abstractions will be soon shared.

The Booster version 0.24.0 is capable of creating Multi Provider Rockets. Multi-provider Rockets could include implementations for different vendors in the same npm package.

Once again the standards to the rescue. Even if we were using JWT, Booster was tightly coupled to Cognito to verify the token and get the information associated with it. We decided to extract that part and use a standard token verification inside the Booster core, which works with the JWT tokens, no matter which provider you are using.

To summarize, by writing highly semantic code and letting the machine do the heavy lifting, Booster allows you to build fully functioning real-time APIs in a breeze, making everything else work out of the box, and saving a ton of time that you can use to add new use cases, write better tests, or manage elusive corner cases.

I encourage you all to try out Booster and modeling your systems around events. Learn more by visiting Booster's website, GitHub repo, or join the conversation on the Booster Discord server!

booster Booster is a high-level framework for TypeScript to build Serverless applications with built-in business-logic-level abstractions. Booster is highly opinionated and still under heavy development so be aware of that as you explore this project. I had a look a the documentation, and it is very detailed and comprehensive. This could be a project to watch.
