Yugabyte announced a partnership and new integration with Hasura to deliver true cloud elasticity and ease of use for application development using GraphQL.

The product integration allows Hasura Cloud customers to create a YugabyteDB cluster in a Yugabyte Cloud account and connect to it with a single click.

YugabyteDB is built on a scalable and fault-tolerant architecture and can be deployed in a wide range of geo-distributed configurations in hybrid or multi cloud environments. The database is wire compatible with PostgreSQL and offers advanced relational database capabilities. Yugabyte Cloud delivers YugabyteDB as a fully-managed database-as-a-service running on Amazon Web Services or Google Cloud Platform. YugabyteDB is a distributed SQL database which integrates with Hasura’s open-source GraphQL engine and instantly provides developers with a production-ready GraphQL API.

By pairing Hasura with YugabyteDB’s high-performance distributed SQL database, developers can now build applications that are highly available, scalable, and geo-distributed – without the need to write backend code to handle data requests. Since both the Hasura GraphQL Engine and YugabyteDB are 100% open-source under Apache 2.0 license, developers can get started at no cost and benefit from the innovation and velocity of vibrant open-source communities. They can deploy the software at scale on any public or private cloud, or use the fully managed public cloud services from the two companies.

“YugabyteDB is a great compliment to Hasura GraphQL as it provides horizontal scalability, fault tolerance, and global data distribution for Postgres users. As the cloud-native community continues to grow, we look forward to seeing the innovative applications built with these technologies.” said Tanmai Gopal, Co-Founder and CEO, Hasura.

Several organizations, including Midoin, Ubercircle and Brikl are using the Hasura GraphQL Engine and YugabyteDB in production enterprise environments.

“By integrating YugabyteDB and Yugabyte Cloud with Hasura’s ability to easily connect databases and microservices to a GraphQL backend, we are able to provide a frictionless user experience for developers building scalable apps in the cloud.” said Karthik Ranganathan, Co-Founder and CTO of Yugabyte.

Developers can create free accounts on Hasura Cloud and Yugabyte Cloud, and deploy applications within minutes to experience firsthand the simplicity and power of the tightly integrated solution.
