  DataLoader is a generic utility to be used as part of your application's data fetching layer to provide a consistent API over various backends and reduce requests to those backends via batching and caching.

  

Will it be gateway for REST API or gateway for a number of GraphQL services (here you can expect n + 1 problem and it can be a challenge to design DataLoaders on your layers)? You also should consider here how authorization rules, throttling rates or caching timeouts should be handled. Since GraphQL uses only one endpoint REST route-specific rules should be transferred into GraphQL schema rules: you may need to write authorization, throttling or caching logic in a separate layer.
