Harnessing GraphQL for Efficient API Queries: Learn How
summary
Solo’s Glue platform demonstrates a concrete implementation: a GraphQL Envoy filter that runs inside Istio so GraphQL queries translate directly to REST gRPC or GraphQL backends without a separate Apollo server, resolving over‑ and under‑fetching by schema + resolvers that can call multiple APIs. The platform provides a central, multi‑cluster API Gateway, a developer portal with Swagger import, API key and plan management, and CRD‑driven config stored in GitHub so CI/CD deploys and manages policies and traffic.
