fbjork··on Nexus: An Open-Source AI Router for Governance, Control and Observability
The issue is when you have many MCP tools the context becomes too large for the LLM. So Nexus indexes all the tools and lets you search for the right tool and then execute it.

MCP aggregation is one of the big differentiators
fbjork··on Nexus: An Open-Source AI Router for Governance, Control and Observability
From what I can tell they don’t offer a self-hosted router?

What are you building?

Founder of Grafbase here.

Here are a few key differentiators vs LiteLLM today:

- Nexus does MCP server aggregation and LLM routing - LiteLLM only does LLM routing

- The Nexus router is a standalone binary that can run with minimal TOML configuration and optionally Redis - LiteLLM is a whole package with dashboard, database etc.

- Nexus is written in Rust - LiteLLM is written in Python

That said, LiteLLM is an impressive project, but we're just getting started with Nexus so stay tuned for a steady barrage of feature launches the coming months:)

fbjork··on Customize Your GraphQL API with WebAssembly Extensions
GraphQL Federation has historically been constrained by the complexities of managing subgraphs, custom integrations, and infrastructure overhead. While existing solutions provide ways to unify GraphQL APIs, they still require significant operational effort. Until now.

We’re excited to introduce Grafbase Extensions, a powerful new way to customize and enhance your GraphQL APIs without the hassle of building and maintaining additional infrastructure. With WebAssembly-powered extensions, you can federate any API, database, or service into your GraphQL schema, whether it’s REST, gRPC, or Kafka. With Extensions, you can bring in any authentication (e.g. OpenID connect) or custom authorization logic directly into the gateway.

fbjork··on Show HN: Grafbase – Introducing Federated Graphs
Hi Jack,

Founder of Grafbase here.

Grafbase Federated Graphs are spec compliant with Apollo Federation. We've invested a lot in the developer experience of building an deploying GraphQL APIs. Local development, the Grafbase SDK and the Grafbase dashboard were built from the ground up to be easy and efficient to use. GraphQL APIs deployed to Grafbase are also deployed to the edge by default, but can now also be deployed in your own infrastructure.

Founder of Grafbase here.

Grafbase is a GraphQL platform with a Vercel-like DX for shipping GraphQL APIs with built-in edge caching, analytics and branching.

We are in the process of building the Fauna connector to make it dead simple to deploy a GraphQL API from your Fauna database.

Meanwhile, here’s an example of how to connect a Fauna database to your Grafbase project using resolvers: https://github.com/grafbase/grafbase/tree/main/examples/reso...

fbjork··on Migrating Netflix to GraphQL safely
GraphQL really shines when it comes to providing a unified data layer for frontend teams. Having a consistent, typed API is a big time saver for developers building data rich applications. The ability for frontend teams to shape the data they need without talking to a backend developer and reduce the number of requests made to the API makes for a perfect match when building high performance applications.
fbjork··on Grafbase is now in public beta
Founder of Grafbase here.

From a product perspective Grafbase offers a serverless, realtime GraphQL API deployed at the edge. Our goal is to provide a unified data layer on top of existing APIs and databases.

The Grafbase platform itself is built in Rust and deployed to the edge using WebAssembly. Every GraphQL endpoint is deployed to V8 isolates at the edge which translates to very low cold starts and extremely fast performance globally.

Our branching feature makes collaboration seamless with your team. Just created a Git branch and push it up to create an instant preview branch that is totally isolated from production.

The Grafbase CLI is open source and available on GitHub: https://github.com/grafbase/grafbase. We are planning to open source the GraphQL gateway itself later this year.

Stay tuned for end-to-end type safety with TypeScript configuration.

fbjork··on GraphQL Live Queries with live directive
We chose GraphQL at Grafbase for a few reasons:

- The client can ask for the data it needs, which also improves performance by reducing bandwidth

- Aggregating data from multiple data sources with a single request

- Widely adopted and loved by frontend and mobile developers
