What is an API?
An API is an Application Programming Interface that simplifies programming through the abstraction of an underlying implementation by only exposing objects or actions a developer needs. We focus on APIs that are enabled for consumption from across a network to fuel the development of web applications.
What is a Data Graph?
A data graph represents the relationships and the hierarchy between objects of an application. Modern apps mainly read from or write to the data graph during runtime.
What is a graphapi®?
We consider a graphapi® as the primary way of getting data out of a platform and putting data into a platform. A graphapi® is an HTTP-based API that apps can use to write or read data programmatically. A graphapi® is based on GraphQL and just features a single endpoint, a data query language, and a runtime for fulfilling those queries.
