DataLayer Exposed: Loren Sands-Ramshaw and All the Databases
PublishedOur series of DataLayer posts is nearing an end. Loren Sands-Ramshaw was the second-to-last presenter at Compose's DataLayer conference this year, presenting on all the databases.
Up next was Loren Sands-Ramshaw. Loren is the author of the upcoming GraphQL Guide and has worked to help maintain the Meteor framework and Apollo project. At DataLayer, Loren really got into his passion, talking about using all the databases with GraphQL. In his live coding session, Loren uses GraphQL to provide an API backed by five different data sources.
Loren references his article, Use All the Databases, in his talk which was published as part of the Compose Write Stuff program. Click to read part one and part two of his article.
