GraphQL Conf 2026

May 19–20, 2026 · Fremont, CA

Two talks you won't want to miss.

Here's what we're covering:

Federation, Reversed: A Consumer-First Future with Fission

GraphQL Federation usually follows a bottom-up model: service schemas come first, the final API is composed from them. But GraphQL is strongest when APIs are designed around consumer needs — which this approach makes harder.

Fission flips the model. Teams start with API design and derive services from it — explained simply, using cake.

Understanding Your Graph, One Hash at a Time

How do your graph's entities behave over time? Are they cacheable? How often do they change, get accessed, or shift in key distribution?

GraphQL federation is built on simple primitives — entities with unique keys, spread across services. But the patterns they reveal are rarely explored. A few hashes can tell you far more than you'd expect.

What to expect

Two days at Meta's Fremont campus. Federation, AI integration, schema governance, observability — talked about by the teams shipping it in production.

WunderGraph is giving two talks. Come find us between sessions.

What you'll walk away with

01

How teams like yours run federation at scale

Real architecture decisions from companies with 10+ subgraphs — not slides, not theory.

02

Where GraphQL meets AI agents

Whether agents change how you think about schemas, and what teams are already building with graph-aware tooling.

03

Sharper inputs for the architecture calls you're making right now

Migration patterns, governance tradeoffs, and what's actually breaking at scale so you're not reasoning from first principles alone.

04

Time with the WunderGraph team to dig into your setup

Bring your schema, your migration questions, your federation headaches. This is free consulting, not a booth conversation.
