Hasura
What it is
Hasura generates a data API over connected databases, so developers can expose data without writing handlers, schemas, or resolvers. Hasura Cloud plans provide GraphQL APIs, RESTified endpoints, and GraphQL subscriptions. Listed data sources include Postgres-compatible databases, Microsoft SQL Server, BigQuery, Amazon Athena, Snowflake, MySQL, Oracle, MariaDB, MongoDB, and ClickHouse. Teams can extend APIs through remote schemas and joins, Actions, and event or scheduled triggers. Cloud authorization can connect to an authentication provider of the customer’s choice and supports JWT controls through headers, cookies, or webhooks. Hasura Cloud runs on AWS, Google Cloud Platform, and Microsoft Azure Cloud. The Community Edition can be deployed using a Docker image, while Enterprise Edition can run on-premises. Free allows up to three projects, three million API requests per month, and ten concurrent websocket connections. The Free plan includes community and email or ticketed support; Professional includes expert technical support. Enterprise pricing is custom, with 24x7 expert support and customizable SLAs.
