GraphQL Federation Schema Changes: From Months to Days with Hub

WunderGraph Hub's introduction transformed a large enterprise's approach to managing their GraphQL Federation, which comprised over 60 subgraphs and involved significant coordination challenges. Initially, schema changes took 6-8 weeks due to bottlenecks in finding owners, scheduling, and approvals, but with Hub's collaborative platform, these processes were streamlined, reducing cycle times to 1-2 weeks. The platform enabled teams to visually see the federated graph, propose schema changes directly to relevant owners, and incorporate automated governance checks, which relieved the platform team from being a bottleneck and fostered a more inclusive and efficient API development process. This shift not only accelerated schema changes but also encouraged greater participation from all teams, transforming the supergraph from a platform team's responsibility to a shared product, leading to improved collaboration, visibility, and governance across the organization.
