When should I use GraphQL over REST?

GraphQL excels when you have complex data requirements, multiple clients (web, mobile), or need to reduce over-fetching. REST may be simpler for basic CRUD APIs.

Can they handle GraphQL at scale?

Yes. Our developers implement caching (Apollo, persisted queries), DataLoader for N+1 prevention, and federation for distributed schemas.

Do they work with Apollo or other frameworks?

Our developers are proficient in Apollo Server/Client, Hasura, graphql-yoga, and other GraphQL implementations.
