Build GraphQL Services With Spring Boot Like Netflix (SpringOne 2024)

Netflix uses GraphQL and the DGS framework (recently fully integrated with Spring GraphQL) as our primary architecture. In this talk, you’ll learn everything you need to know to do the same. This talk is a deep dive into implementing GraphQL services with Spring Boot and the DGS framework. You’ll learn about GraphQL schemas and how to implement a schema. While you’ll also learn about the fundamentals, the goal of the presentation is to look at more advanced scenarios you’ll run into, such as batch loading, nested data fetchers, error handling, threading and parallel data fetching, and testing. GraphQL services are great stand-alone, but things really get exciting when using GraphQL Federation in a micro services ecosystem. You’ll also learn about federation and how to make your service work in a federated architecture!
