S8 Bonus: The RealReal CTO's Playbook: Engineering Rust-Powered GraphQL Federation at the Network Edge with Fredrik Björk, Founder & CEO of Grafbase
Jun 30, 2023 · Season 8 · 20 min
Graph QL tooling at the API layer, on the edge
Fredrik Björk is originally from Sweden, but has spent many years in San Francisco. He got started coding in BASIC on his Commodore 64 (while also playing video games, of course). Post graduating from RIT, he has been involved in many startups, like Avatars United and The Real Real. Outside of tech, he is a Dad of two kids and likes to run - specifically marathons. Beyond that, he likes wind surfing and wing foil.
Fredrik noticed that the patterns of development has changed towards outsourcing over building everything in house over the past decade. Fast forward to 2021, great services exist to empower developers to ship faster. Fredrik wanted to build a service like this for the API layer, and below.
This is the creation story of Grafbase.
