Live GraphQL performance troubleshooting
This week we’re hosting a two-part livestream investigating real-world performance issues in a GraphQL API. Follow along as Michael Watson explores performance issues on Wednesday, April 26, at 1:30 pm PDT. Then, on Thursday at 11:00 am PDT, we’ll solve those performance problems by implementing server-side caching! You can catch all of our livestreams in our Discord server.
