Effectively a standard initial architecture is to have GraphQL
sitting aside (in parallel) and wrapping REST and along the way
develop GrapgQL Schema.<br>
<br>
It's seems too early to tell but GraphQL being the next step in API
evolution it might ultimately replace REST.</div><div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><br>

<br>
Remember Boston's Summit presentation [1] about GraphQL [2]
and how it <br>
addresses REST limitations.<br>
I wonder if any project has been thinking about using GraphQL.
I haven't <br>
find any mention or pointers about it.<br>
<br>
GraphQL takes a complete different approach compared to REST.
So we can <br>
finally forget about REST API Description languages <br>
(OpenAPI/Swagger/WSDL/WADL/JSON-API/ETC) and HATEOS (the
hypermedia <br>
approach which doesn't describe how to use it).<br>
<br>
So, once passed the point where 'REST vs GraphQL' is like
comparing SQL <br>
and no-SQL DBMS and therefore have different applications,
there are no <br>
doubt the complexity of most OpenStack projects are good
candidates for <br>
GraphQL.<br>
<br>
Besides topics such as efficiency, decoupling, no version
management <br>
need there many other powerful features such as API Schema out
of the <br>
box and better automation down that track.<br>
<br>
It looks like the dream of a conduit between API services and
consumers <br>
might have finally come true so we could move-on an worry
about other <br>
things.<br>
<br>
So has anyone already starting looking into it?<br>
