Is your code heavily dependent on Postgres or it works with any SQL store ?


(I'm from Hasura)

Well, today it is fairly dependent on postgres, but we can add more SQL backends eventually. We also leverage some neat Postgres performance tricks which would have to change depending on the database.

Do you have a database in mind?

Hasura is structured as a compiler that takes GraphQL queries, adds access control rules configured by the user and then generates a SQL query. Adding more SQL backends is supporting more SQL dialects.


I'm exploring GraphQL for a legacy MySQL database right now and the only option I can see is based on Sequelize, which we don't use.

I'd love MySQL support!


Noted!

Not sure if this will help, but one of our users mentioned using symmetricds [1] to sync data from sql-server to postgres and then using Hasura.

Would you consider a noSQL query language?
