GraphQL Integration and Caching
FY 2022-23 · 2022-07-31
Summary
Swarmio’s Ember Hub platform is built on a distributed microservice architecture that exposes a GraphQL API through a federated gateway for flexibility and efficiency.
As traffic on the platform increases, response times and throughput become greater concerns. Horizontal platform scaling can improve performance to a degree, but implementation of a caching layer is almost always required in modern application deployments at scale. Standard HTTP caching does not suffice in this case.
This initiative will allow the Ember Hub platform to serve significantly higher user counts, increasing responsiveness while reducing infrastructure costs.

Description
Swarmio’s Ember Hub platform is built on a distributed microservice architecture that exposes a GraphQL API through a federated gateway for flexibility and efficiency.
As traffic on the platform increases, response times and throughput become greater concerns. Horizontal platform scaling can improve performance to a degree, but implementation of a caching layer is almost always required in modern application deployments at scale. Standard HTTP caching does not suffice in this case.
This initiative will allow the Ember Hub platform to serve significantly higher user counts, increasing responsiveness while reducing infrastructure costs.
Description (French)
La plateforme Ember Hub de Swarmio est construite sur une architecture distribuée de microservices qui expose une API GraphQL par le biais d'une passerelle fédérée pour plus de souplesse et d'efficacité. À mesure que le trafic sur la plateforme augmente, les temps de réponse et le débit deviennent des préoccupations majeures. La mise à l'échelle horizontale de la plateforme peut améliorer le rendement dans une certaine mesure, mais la mise en œuvre d'une couche de mise en cache est presque toujours nécessaire dans les déploiements d'applications modernes à l'échelle. La mise en cache HTTP standard ne suffit pas dans ce cas. Cette initiative permettra à la plateforme Ember Hub de servir un nombre d'utilisateurs nettement plus élevé, en augmentant la réactivité tout en réduisant les coûts d'infrastructure.
