Remote Joins: A GraphQL API to join across your database and other data-sources

What's this blog post about?

Hasura has released Remote Joins, a GraphQL API that enables developers to join data across different databases and other data sources. This feature allows users to treat data from multiple sources as if it were one database without affecting the existing data source. With this, application developers can securely access precise slices of data and reduce the time spent on bringing all the data together. Remote Joins extend the concept of joining data across tables to include joining data across tables and remote data sources. This feature is useful for scenarios such as customer data joined with account/billing/payment information in Stripe, user data joined with profile information in Auth0, and joining data across two separate databases. Hasura DDN (Data Description Notation) is now open for sign-ups in beta.
