A blog post about GraphQL in an enterprise setting, that fails to address the biggest GQL feature for enterprises. Not unlike most material on HN about microservices. Federated supergraph is the killer feature imo.

Being able to federate REST alongside GQL has been a value add in my experience. Apollo even has the ability to do this client side
The author states that in their experience, most downstream services are REST, so adding a GQL aggregation layer on top isn't very helpful. It seems possible they would have a different opinion if they were working with multiple services that all implemented GQL schemas.
