GraphQL in the AI Era

Session description

A year ago, we forecast an important role for GraphQL in an AI future. That prediction has come true, with GraphQL now serving as the foundation of critical AI initiatives at household brands in retail, hospitality, health care and many more. Just as importantly, GraphQL's declarative entity-based architecture has proven to be an ideal match for modern agentic development. In this talk, we'll share a view of where GraphQL now sits in the modern enterprise stack, recount lessons we've learned putting MCP workloads and agentic software in production with the graph, our roadmap for an AI-first world, and a vision of where GraphQL can and must go next.
