GraphQL AI


  • Advantage: Efficient data retrieval by allowing clients to request only the data they need.

  • Advantage: Strongly-typed schema that makes it easier to understand and validate queries.

  • Advantage: Single endpoint for multiple resources, simplifying API management.

  • Advantage: Better performance by reducing the amount of data transferred over the network.

  • Advantage: Flexibility for developers to change front-end requirements without altering back-end services.

  • Disadvantage: Complexity in setting up and maintaining the GraphQL server and schema.

  • Disadvantage: Potential for over-fetching or under-fetching if not properly managed.

  • Disadvantage: Requires careful handling of versioning, as changes in schema can affect clients.

  • Disadvantage: Inherent security risks such as exposing sensitive data through overly permissive queries.

  • Disadvantage: Can lead to performance issues if queries are not optimized or if complex queries are allowed.
