The first-ever GraphQL Summit Scale took place, bringing together engineering leaders and architects focused on solving the challenges of creating an organization-wide data graph. Keynote speaker Matt DeBergalis emphasized the importance of designing a common graph for agility and composability, while panelists discussed building an adaptive engineering culture that empowers teams to collaborate and learn faster. Companies like Glassdoor, Expedia, and PayPal shared their experiences on scaling GraphQL architectures, including strategies for managing federation, adopting a rotation strategy, and driving graph adoption at scale. The event also featured sessions on best practices for becoming a Graph Champion and lessons learned from early adopters, providing valuable insights for developers and organizations looking to implement GraphQL solutions.
