" summary

A startup story of extracting a single component — a realtime GraphQL engine on Postgres — from a bulky Kubernetes platform, open-sourcing it and watching adoption explode. The GraphQL layer proves useful for prototyping and production: live subscriptions demo works, companies run it in mission‑critical systems, and the project hits 23M Docker pulls and 14,000 GitHub stars within ~18 months. Heavy early support load turns into enterprise deals and product-driven growth.
