Strato: Twitter’s Virtual Database Power...
Developing software against a large collection of services is often harder and more difficult than it needs to be. Inconsistencies between service interfaces mean each type of data is queried in a slightly different way, making abstraction difficult and leading to boilerplate. By enforcing a consistent data and access model over these heterogeneous microservices we can simplify feature development. Strato exposes data from other services according to a unified data model and a single logical interface, enabling generic infrastructure for automatically generated GraphQL, REST, and Thrift APIs; drop-in caching; simplified access control; deploy-free updates; and more! Come see how we simplify life for data owners and data consumers alike!
