Customize Your GraphQL API with WebAssembly Extensions

GraphQL Federation has historically been constrained by the complexities of managing subgraphs, custom integrations, and infrastructure overhead. While existing solutions provide ways to unify GraphQL APIs, they still require significant operational effort. Until now.

We’re excited to introduce Grafbase Extensions, a powerful new way to customize and enhance your GraphQL APIs without the hassle of building and maintaining additional infrastructure. With WebAssembly-powered extensions, you can federate any API, database, or service into your GraphQL schema, whether it’s REST, gRPC, or Kafka. With Extensions, you can bring in any authentication (e.g. OpenID connect) or custom authorization logic directly into the gateway.
