How GraphQL & Apollo help drive Reddit's mission

on YouTube ↗06m

" summary

Reddit describes how Apollo and GraphQL power the iOS home feed via a Python Graphene graphql gateway then migrate to federated Go subgraphs to improve performance and let teams work independently. A routing gateway abstracts the monolith while subgraphs are extracted and rewritten, and retries for read-only queries via OkHttp Tag API recover about a million feed loads per day. Real-time features use subscriptions (peak 6.63 million subscription events), presence, and animated vote scores; plans include Apollo Kotlin upgrades and custom scalars.
