Launching Hasura DDN: The world's first metadata-driven data access layer
hasura ddn is now in general availability, marking a major milestone in its development. This new version of hasura builds upon the existing product capabilities that were driving successful adoption and business value for users. The underlying compiler and runtime have been enhanced with significant engineering improvements. The biggest evolution in hasura ddn is to surface the core product capability that was latent in previous versions, providing a metadata-driven data access layer. This layer enables developers to create their apis directly via metadata instead of creating metadata after building their apis. Hasura's tooling helps speed up the creation of metadata and hence the final api, resulting in massive time savings for developers. The new version also guarantees that metadata is always maintained and updated, making it easier for teams to govern how their data is used and make sound decisions about investing in their data products. With hasura ddn, businesses can accelerate their transition to becoming data companies with business services attached, as the industry starts to roll out and embrace ai. The product helps developers shift their focus from a lower-level abstraction of working at an api-endpoint level to working at a higher level of abstraction of metadata, giving them time to improve their data and business logic.
