Blueprints of Successful GraphQL Architectures
summary
Shows concrete blueprints: database‑first using tools like Prisma, PostGraphile, MongoDB Atlas and Hot Chocolate to compile GraphQL into SQL and spin a working API from Entity Framework in 30 seconds with one resolver, but warns about tight coupling and accidental exposure. Describes layering a GraphQL façade over a business layer with data loader caching to separate concerns and improve testability. Explains enterprise-scale patterns: CQRS for read/write separation, DDD with bounded contexts and event storming, and when to compose subgraphs via Federation.
