Vision: Stellate is unlocking the world’s data

This is why Stellate exists

Mission: Bring superpowers to large-scale GraphQL APIs

This is how Stellate is executing towards its Vision today

We believe GraphQL is the best way to access data at large-scale companies.
- In turn, enterprise adoption of GraphQL is growing rapidly:
  
  Gartner says that “less than 10% of enterprises (not developers) were using GraphQL in 2021 […] and predict that will bump up to 50% by 2025” (source)
GraphQL turns APIs from a list of endpoints into graphs. This shift in the representation of the data from a mere list of endpoints to a graph leads to the main benefit of GraphQL: flexibility in access to your data.
- This flexibility also explains the main tradeoff of GraphQL in the form of unique challenges to building and operating APIs at large-scale, including performance, security, maintenance and scalability.
GraphQL is based on a strict specification that every GraphQL API follows.
- This allows us to build tools that help with these challenges once, and then sell them to everybody using GraphQL that needs them!
That’s why our mission is to bring superpowers to large-scale GraphQL APIs: build the superpower once; power up everybody that needs it!
Our current main product is GraphQL Edge Caching, which allows companies in certain industries to significantly speed up their response times, improve their scalability (particularly during traffic spikes), and save costs.
