Using Tyk’s new GraphQL functionality: Who’s it for and what does it do?

Tyk's new GraphQL functionality, introduced in the Tyk 3.0 release, enhances API management by allowing users to secure, manage, and build GraphQL services alongside existing RESTful services. This functionality is particularly beneficial for organizations with existing GraphQL services, as it provides features like security, rate limiting, quotas, field-based permissions, and query depth limiting, which can now be applied to GraphQL endpoints. Moreover, Tyk enables the conversion of existing RESTful services into GraphQL endpoints with ease, facilitating a Backend-for-Frontend approach and the creation of a Universal Data Graph by stitching together multiple data sources. The enhanced GraphQL capabilities, designed to simplify and safeguard the management of GraphQL services, promise further updates and features in the future to improve user experience and functionality.
